First, I love that it's a cotton blend and not 100% cotton and the price point isn't so bad - goes downhill from there. Hate the big, honking applique on the striped shirts (would purchase the black/red combo, but that lobster - ugh) and I need another tote bag like a hole in the head. Sorry, not looking forward to this one.


I have to agree.....................not crazy about horizontal stripes but it is that weirdly placed applique that messes up any clean look the top had.................if they had not put the applique on the shirt and bag i think they would have sold many more TSV's today. The applique just looks so out of place and odd.

Not my style.

I have 2 QF grommet tees, like them and would order another. I would even go for a nicely placed small scale palm tree tee because I like pink/green together, but the size of the embellishment on this TSV is too over-the-top for my tastes. I like the colored grommets and hope the idea will be produced in a tee sold separately. The tote would be a freebie with little function for me other than carting books. Have fun wearing it if it speaks to you.

I like the solid colors -- especially the blue and red -- but the stripes not so much. It seems that whenever a TSV contains two items, one of them is a color which I could never wear -- look horrible in that shade of green or orange or yellow. Would consider the red and black set but I don't need another lobster -- already have one from years ago from QF -- I do live in the northeast so a lobster is suitable. Also, to be honest have tote bags coming out my gazoo -- and seldom use any of them.

First of all, I like the anchor option and also the flamingo option. Nice colors, good price, considering QF. Hey, why not offer a shirt similar to Laverne's (photo above) with a large initial of our choice? Great idea!!

Stripes seem to be everywhere this year. Sigh. Too bad; the t-shirt fit looks good. Don't need or want the bag. Not into nautical, tropical, flamingos as QF seems to favor. If the embellishment was embroidery rather than slabs o' sequins, I'd like it better.

I like stripes but I also would like the shirt better if the embellishment was a bit smaller in size and embroidery instead of sequins.

I'm now liking the palm tree option, too........Smile Really, all options are cute.

I like the grommets, I don't mind stripes. I have no use for the tote and the sequinned ornamentation is way too large. However, at least I could unpick and remove the sequins, so that wouldn't put me off buying.

I already have far too many tees as it is, so this won't be coming home with me. I don't need one more, let alone a double act.

Really dislike that odd applique.
