When your character was in third grade, they wore the same comfy shirt every single day. Describe that shirt.

Nemia was small, even in third grade. Her tiny stature led to oversized clothes, even if she wore the smallest size possible. There was one shirt that Nemia absolutely loved wearing - it was comfortable and colorful and made her feel confident and cozy at the same time. This shirt was a light cotton long-sleeve, the color of soft sunshine. Embroidered all over the shirt were colorful pops of flowers, bees, and looping lines - giving the impression of a sun-soaked wildflower field in motion. Her classmates could have bullied her about wearing this shirt every single day (and some did make comments behind her back), but the truth was that every person felt calmed and maybe a little mesmerized when looking at her in the shirt. This gave her a mysterious aura, even after she started to wear different clothes in future years of school.
