The One That Almost Got Away

So, who is my “one that almost got away”?! Well, his name is James…James Perse…to be more specific: the James Perse Heathered Relaxed Casual V Neck Tee…in light grey!

I first tried it on in NYC while on a mission to find the perfect pair of jeans! Since I was wearing a dress, I needed a shirt to wear with the jeans to get a proper “feel”! This is the shirt I ended up wearing while trying on jeans! I really liked the fit of this t-shirt, and the material was so soft!! The problem was, I was so focused on the jeans that I didn’t even think about buying this shirt…BAD MOVE!!! I have been coveting this shirt ever since and have searched in many stores around Canada, on the James Perse website (which sadly uses another company to ship Internationally, and thus literally doubles the cost of the shirt, not cool!!). I’ve found James Perse clothes, but haven’t had luck with this particular tee..until now – half a year later finding out that shopbop.com will ship it to Canada!! *Happy Dance*

I was worried that this t-shirt would be “the one that got away” but I’m oh so happy it’s not!!! Hallelujah!

    Hi everyone, including Victoria! I’m a huge fan of JP cotton T’s … esp these ones. I own them in a lot of colours – some more than one as I seroiusly live in them. Please check out Holts (Vaughn Mills outlet also has a ton if you go before the summer season start), Judith & Charles (First Canadian Place or Ottawa) or Your Choice (major malls in the GTA). I’ve got them on sale for as low as $49 or $39 at these places. Everytime I see them, I buy them all.
