What would you do if your 2-year-old DD got this as a Christmas gift?

I actually kind of love the style of the shirt - not a huge fan of the writing on it though.

She's two.

You could put her in a sack, and she'd be cute.

Keep it and let her wear it to the playground in the spring.

You let you kid finger paint right? You just found a new painting outfit. It's not my style but there isn't anything wrong with it.

I think it's sort of cute. Would I buy it? No not likely, esp not new. But if someone else bought it I wouldn't have an issue putting my kid in it. Who cares if it's not YOUR style? YOU aren't wearing it. Let the kid wear it and move on.

Take a pic. Sell on eBay.

Send the pic to BIL.

Handle with grace and practicality.

I thought this was going to be some offensive, sex kitten outfit. OP, this is fine. Just say thank you and stop figuring out how to return in.

This is what my BIL gave my kid. We all have our crosses to bear.

This is the OP. Thanks to all for the input.

Just to clarify, I'm less concerned about what to do with this one outfit than about the overall trend. BIL buys DD outfits like this for pretty much *every* gift-giving occasion (and sometimes for no reason at all) so we're talking about way more than just one shirt and a pair of pants. It's very sweet and we really appreciate the thought, but Harley Davidson clothes aren't cheap and she's just never going to get the kind of wear from them that would justify the price. As I mentioned previously, BIL doesn't make a ton of money and, frankly, I would rather have him not buy presents for her at all than have it be more $$ down the drain with every birthday and holiday. Was just hoping people might have some thoughts on how to tactfully discourage future purchases.

It's not your problem.

Good lord, just say "Thank you, Uncle Biker." She is two years old and will outgrow it in the blink of an eye.

What's the big deal?

I like it better than 99% of Gymboree outfits.

If you think this is sick, your world is very VERY small.
