The ‘stealin’ it from under Mikey’s nose’ T-shirt

Saturday, August 29, 2009 4:50 1 Comment

Just loving this one, which was recommended to us by a UK based peep, so really I should have left it to Mikey, but I couldn’t resist this T-shirt (who can resist a sundae when it’s the last weekend of August?) not least because it comes in purple, purple or … purple. The guy behind [...]

The ‘we’re going to need a bigger boat’ T-shirt

If you didn’t get the film reference, then the rest of this blog is going to do absolutely nothing for you. Seen in the streets, this Slovak chap, wearing quite a sad hat but an excellent T-shirt. Word one of English he had not, and my Slovak is equally not there, so our exchange was [...]

Randr – T-shirts for the swine flu generation

Saturday, August 22, 2009 5:05 2 Comments

No, not really, but T-shirts with a sickness theme (not a sick theme, that would be the Michael Jackson Rest In Pieces Tee that we are not reviewing, just giggling over). No, our lovely teeshirt can be found at Randr (stands for Rise and Resist) who are an up and coming bunch of T-shirt mavens [...]

Vivienne Westwood ‘worn on the street’ T-shirt

Wednesday, August 19, 2009 9:29 No Comments

Okay so when the weather is good, you get out there, right? Today has been blistering hot, so I knew that if I got down by the sea, I would find some pretty damn good T-shirts being worn. And whatever anybody else says, I didn’t just want an excuse to get out of the office [...]

The ‘Greenest of Green’ T-shirts

Saturday, August 15, 2009 6:43 No Comments

When new T-shirt companies start up, they feel the need to say something about themselves. Dripping in Fat says it has ‘an ideal… one of making the world a better dressed place… with design conscious threads that self-appreciative people will wear with pride.’ Hmm, so slobs and scruffy bastards don’t need to click the link [...]

The ‘ethnic’ but stylish T-shirt

Wednesday, August 12, 2009 12:07 No Comments

Everybody knows that I’m a sucker for Indian folk designs, so I was thrilled to be tipped off by one of our lovely commentators to Vibrantribes. And the T-shirts are really good, really really good. But … (here I am going to be just a little snarky) the website got on my nerves. First, it [...]

The ‘Forty years on’ Abbey Road T-shirt

Saturday, August 8, 2009 6:36 2 Comments

Gotta love this: BBC news visits the most famous pedestrian crossing forty years on and finds big love, and some narky neighbours. “In the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make” – a lot of love on this zebra crossing, I think! If you go down there, it’s a really [...]

The ‘I tweet, you tweet’ T-shirt

Wednesday, August 5, 2009 9:16 No Comments

You either love twitter or you hate it. Or maybe, if you’re very old or something, you’ve never heard of it. But assuming you are part of the current century, you tweet. I tweet. I love to tweet. I am the tweetiest little twitterer you could imagine. And all my friends tweet back. Like a [...]

Meh, meh, not meh T-shirt

Saturday, August 1, 2009 9:08 1 Comment

Some weeks you go through the offerings and say meh. Meh, meh, meh. Summer brings out the boringly average in T-shirt designs, as if people say ‘hey, the sun is shining, everybody has to wear a Tee, so let’s schlep out some schlock, they won’t care because they’ve got to put something on their backs’.
