Are you feeling a special extra dose of power brewing in your bones? That’s probably because March 8th marks International Women’s Day, and the spirit of celebrating women is here. Not only does International Women’s Day provide a much overdue opportunity to shout-out all the influential ladies in our lives, but it also gives us a ton of different ways to celebrate.

Since the day is dedicated to appreciating women in all of the possible ways, treating yourself to a cute (and feminist AF) T-shirt completely counts as a celebration of the holiday. Naturally, we found shirts made by women-owned companies or that will speak to your feminist heart for your International Women’s Day shopping endeavors.

One brand, in particular, is highlighting women for the entire month of March, which we can so get behind. We’re talking about ModCloth — the brand is not only selling empowering tees, but they’re celebrating female vendors and female-owned brands on social media. If you want to join their movement, from now until March 8th, you can share the hashtag #WhatSheSaidMonth or #ModClothSweeps to enter in the running for two $100 gift cards (one for you and your BFF).

The brand is pushing things even further with its other contest. If you use the hashtag #ModClothGivingContest, you can nominate a female friend, activist, or entrepreneur for a chance to get a $4,500 grant toward their cause as well as five hours of business coaching from #TeamModCloth. Pretty neat, right? And ModCloth has plenty of feminist tees for your perusal.

So whether you’re looking to stock up on shirts for spring or you’re in the market for a new statement piece, there are plenty of options for you. Please, pour yourself a drink, kick back in a comfy chair, and take a moment to celebrate yourself this International Women’s Day.
