Little Babe Collective

I heard someone say today that famous Canadians need to wear a name tag, because we don’t know them well enough.
As sad as that is, it didn’t surprise me. The idea behind our Inspirational Woman’s Shirt, was to bring more attention to the incredible CANADIAN women. We had a list of many influential women, and it was hard to cut down, but talking to others we also realized so many of us didn’t know who they were.

It’s up to us to learn and educate others on CANADIAN women that have made an influence. Who is someone you know that you look up to?
