Good news! The locally owned and operated Rectangle Designs just launched its online store. Check it out if you care to purchase T-shirts, dresses, and totes in flora-themed prints. This is the one that I purchased recently. The picture at left doesn't exactly do the shirt justice (the problem with these longer tees is that you've got to pair them with fitted, flat-front pants - thus the proliferation of leggings), but it is quite flattering in real life. Also, it's the only shirt stitched by Sarah Nassif, the brains behind these Rectangle operations. All the others are printed on American Apparel garments, which run quite small, if you ask me.
