Why You Need It
Built to look like two shirts at once, this women's tee has short sleeves layered over long sleeves, a ribbed round neck and a loose fit with dropped shoulders. The crest on the chest shows a black cat inside a gothic arch wrapped in red roses, with an open book below and the words The Forbidden Garden Library curved around the top. A sun faded wash and paneled sleeves give it a lived in look. It comes in white, which keeps the dark crest sharp and easy to pair with any bottom.
Wear It Loud
We picked this one for the layered look and the crest. The top sleeves stop at the elbow over a pair of long sleeves in a stretchy contrast knit, the collar is a neat rib and the shoulders drop. In the center, the cat sits inside its arch with roses climbing the sides and the lettering curved above. The wash is soft and uneven.
It comes in White. Wear it with baggy jeans and sneakers, with a pleated skirt and boots, or with black trousers for a cool day at the library. Add a pair of small silver rings and a tote with a good paperback and you are all set. It saves you from having to layer anything under it.
Why It's Yours
You get a layered outfit in one piece, and that is already a win on a busy morning. The loose cut leaves room to move, the soft cotton holds its shape and the stretchy sleeves stay comfortable under a coat. The gothic crest turns a simple white shirt into a conversation starter at the bookstore. It keeps its shape through repeat washing and makes a thoughtful gift for a friend who loves a little mystery.

Poster/Canvas Care
Care Instructions: Poster
Keep it out of direct sunlight, which fades ink over time. Hang it in a dry room, away from steam and damp. Dust it gently with a soft, dry cloth, and don’t spray or wipe it with liquid. For the longest life, put it under glass in a frame. Handle it by the edges, and store it flat or rolled loosely, never creased.
Care Instructions: Canvas
Keep it out of direct sunlight and away from heat vents and damp rooms. Dust the surface with a soft, dry cloth or a dry brush. Don’t use water, sprays or cleaners on the print. Hang it on a secure wall mount, and avoid pressing on the front of the canvas. If it’s stored, keep it upright and wrapped in a clean cloth, away from anything that could dent the front.
