$5 Barbie Tees @ Target

I stopped by Target the other day and while passing their checkout counters, I saw a little Barbie display on one of the end caps. There were tee shirts, mugs, Barbie accessories, and all sorts of random products so I happily grabbed two t-shirts. They were marked $9.99 (on the shelf) so I wanted to try them both on to decide on which one to get. To me, 10 bucks is way too steep for a thin, cheap t-shirt.

In the end, I couldn't decide which to get so I brought both to the register. When the cashier scanned one of the tees, it showed up for only $4.99! I ended up buying two -and then also running back to get another pink one (which ended up being ripped on the side so I'll be returning it!!) I think I'll go back to check the prices on the mugs though because maybe all the Barbie items were on sale and not just the t-shirts.

About the sizing.. The t-shirts are available in (from what I remember) S-XXL. I'm an XS in shirts and I got the White in a medium and the Pink in a small. Both smalls fit me but I didn't like how the material of the White tee felt so "stiff." Also, medium was longer and I like the my shirts to cover my butt. The medium for the pink had a ripped side (like the additional pink one I bought) so I got the small which fits fine. The large even fits me although it is loose but it's not overly long and doesn't hang off my butt like most big t-shirts.

Check the seams.. If you buy these these, again, be careful and check the sides of the shirts. The seams tend to tear easily -this can easily be fixed but it's worth mentioning.

Which design do you like more? I like the pink one but I don't wear a lot of pink -I wish it was on white instead. The design on the white tee looks SO CHEAP.. like a DIY iron on job but I really liked the images of all the different Barbie and Ken dolls so whatever. I don't buy many shirts with cartoons or images but I will if they're Hello Kitty or Barbie!

Have a lovely Saturday!! <33
