Mini Rodini Skunk Tee

There are plenty of animal T-shirts around, but very few have the personality that Mini Rodini manages to give theirs. This little skunk, complete with his tiny bow tie and wonderfully serious expression, is the sort of character that makes people smile without being loud or gimmicky.

I think that's why Mini Rodini's prints have such a loyal following. They don't feel like cartoons; they feel like little personalities.

The cream organic cotton is a good choice here too. A bright white would have made the print feel stark, but the softer background gives it a slightly vintage look, almost like an old screen print that's been loved for years. The oversized illustration has plenty of space around it, so it makes an impact without the T-shirt feeling busy.

I'd keep everything else simple. Washed denim, soft green joggers, burgundy leggings or even classic black all work because the skunk is already doing the talking. And if your child is anything like mine, they'll probably end up giving him a name before they've even left the house.
