So I'm not in a sorority. Georgetown doesn't have sororities and fraternities because of its Jesuit roots. This normally means I'm excluded from all things Greek life. (Because, honestly, it would just be extremely weird if I bought one of the sorority Lilly prints.)
However, I am now in love with The Frat Collection. Even though the name has "Frat" in it, it's definitely not limiting to Greek life! Yay! They're available for both men and women as well. I'm also not normally a t-shirt girl. However, sometimes when I've been out in the sun all day or if I'm just a little bit on the lazy side, I'll throw one on for errands. I will not feel guilty wearing this one around town... it's too cute!
Okay, so here's how it works. You pick what type of t-shirt you want (long or short sleeves). Then you pick the fabric for the pocket square. Finally, choose your color shirt. And voilà! Your own cute t-shirt.
They sent me a store credit so I could get one for myself to test out and review for the blog... I had the absolute hardest time trying to figure out which colors to get. I ended up picking the Marcia pocket square on the Southern Sky shirt.
I love how it looks!
Want to know the BEST part about The Frat Collection??? They donate 10% to a philanthropy of your choice!!!
I love how lots of companies donate a portion of their revenue to charities, but this is even better since you can pick an organization that is close to your heart. Order a bunch for your sorority and you can all make the donation to the cause your chapter supports. I love this! I chose to give the 10% to The Grassroot Project!

Having been greek at a Jesuit college I just wanted to say that Georgetown has no greek system due to an administration choice it wS nothing to do with being Jesuit. The Society of Jesus has nothing against Greek systems and many Jesuits were greek themselves!
ReplyDeleteI did a post on this a few days ago! I honestly love this tee. It's too cute! I'm having the hardest time deciding though! I'm going to end up with 10 of these shirts, but I suppose that isn't a bad thing!
ReplyDeleteHow cute! Love them!
ReplyDeleteOhh this is fun!!! And I understand feeling silly buying a sorority lilly print! haha I wasnt in a sorority either! I guess Ill just stick with the lilly basic prints lol! xoxo!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big t-shirt wearer either but these are super cute! I also love how the company makes a donation to the philanthropy of your choice!

I saw your instagram the other day and decided I HAD to order one!! I got a short sleeve marlin blue with "The Laura" pocket square. I seriously cannot wait until it comes!
ReplyDeleteI was JUST on their website the other day because I've been seeing them all over but of course I had too hard of a time decided which colors to get! I love seeing what everyone choose though- that blue gingham looks so you! :)
ReplyDelete"Want to know the BEST part about The Frat Collection??? They donate 10% to a philanthropy of your choice!!!" Now that is tres chic! :)

ReplyDeleteThose are very cute and look super comfortable. They aren't exactly my style, but they look great on the models on the site!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE these!!! Too cute. Must have.
ReplyDeletequick question: how fast were they with shipping? i ordered a few tees on may 15 and i haven't gotten any shipping confirmation or anything...i've sent a couple emails and no one has contacted me back so i'm starting to get a little frustrated!
ReplyDeleteHey Meradee!
ReplyDeleteDue to overwhelming demand, our production team fell further behind than initially anticipated. Therefore, your order with an expected ship date of June 4 did not ship until June 6. We apologize for this delay and we have refunded $6.97 for shipping. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.
Thanks,
The Frat Collection
Hey I know this post is super old but I was hoping to get your advice on the frat collection tee after you've had it awhile !! Im not a sorority girl either but recently ive been thinking its super cute and have been looking on etsy to get a frocket ! I came across frat collection through looking at your instragram and blog and was just wondering if you thought the tee was worth the extra 10-15 dollars than one I can get on etsy! Quality matters obviously !!
ReplyDeleteThanks!!
