Guess Which Smiley Tee Costs More

One of the t-shirts below comes from a designer who has become a favorite among young Hollywood and costs a whopping $88. The other tee shirt doesn't carry a designer label, but the pricetag is sure to make you smile. Can you guess which is which?

It's beyond me that anyone ever thought a giant yellow circle in the middle of a shirt would be attractive on any woman's body (regardless of shape and size). That aside, I think I like the f21 version better--the blank eyes in the Lauren Moshi shirt kind of creep me out.

Nice find. I've seen some James Perse at my Marshalls but haven't bought anything yet. Let me know how that holds up!

I agree with Alexandra with the blank eyes and price wise but then I always check for quality.

I find F21 clothes disposable after a couple of washes.
