Relief for the South through a Tee

I love the trend of buying a tee to support a cause: not only do you then donate money to the cause, but you advertise it every time you wear the tee. AND you get a cute tee to wear! Souther designer Billy Reid is selling this tee and donating 100% of the profits directly…
