Toddler tops!
Size: 3T, Color: Dusty Rose/Pink Text Print/White Rugby Stripe
These are great quality, my daughter is too but she is tall so we needed long fitting shirts. These tops fit well and appearance is long on her tall torso. The thickness of this shirt perfect for in between spring and summer. It is very comfortable and cute without being ugly! She is able to perform all her toddler shenanigans in these shirts too!
