After long consideration, and much scouring of shops, catalogues and websites, I think this little gem has to be my favourite Valentine’s Day t-shirt. A corker from sartorial corkers Snorgtees, this has love and zombies written all over it. What a classic combination. Love. And zombies. A match made in heaven.
To be fair, this is probably more of a boy present than a girl present. Girls might like something a bit more sentimental and squishy. Something that says “I love you so so much, I want to eat you all up.” Hmmm. Actually, come to think about it, it’s perfect for boys AND girls actually!

Way over State-side, the NYPD are slapping the wrists of their police force for wearing “inappropriate” t-shirts whilst on the job. Slogans such as “Our Day Begins When Your Day Ends” worn at crime scenes were deemed in bad taste (surely not) and officers have been barred from wearing any branded NYPD clothing, a move that has been highly criticised by the policemen themselves, who probably rather like their t-shirt slogans.
Other offending garments include tees describing the 30th Precinct of Harlem as the “House of Pain” and the 32 Precinct of Hamilton Heights as the “Tomb of Gloom”
I would imagine a bit of gallows humour wouldn’t go amiss when you’re a New York cop, but maybe they need to keep it a bit more covered up….?

The Saturday’s are a girl band, and there is one who looks a bit like Sienna Miller, and that is why they are famous. The one who looks like Sienna is called Mollie King. I’m not sure if she is as annoying, but it probably comes close. Still, the Saturdays are very popular, even if noone knows what they do. When I say noone knows, I think I mean noone cares. Not true; I expect people do care, but they are little people who are under the age of about 10, which is the target audience for most pop stars these days. And yes, I am feeling very old today. I was at least 14 when I discovered U2 (I have since “undiscovered” them, you’ll be glad to know).
Anyway, I quite like this tee that young Millie or is it Mollie is wearing with a few tears and the slogan “Dirty Blonde”. It has that dual meaning which lifts it a little out of the “girl in t-shirt” category to the upper realms of “quite nice looking girl in funny t-shirt”. I think this is progress.

Big news today is that Mickey Mouse has hijacked Joy Division’s beautiful (if a little weird) artwork from their ”Unknown Pleasures” album. Naughty little rodent. Anyway, Joy Division purists are up in arms at the alleged theft at the pinching of their special wiggly lines, and drummer Stephen Morris has weighed into the argument saying “I was quite angry when I first saw it. No one asked us. They’re trading off the band and our album cover. I don’t like the design at all. It’s horrible.” And indeed he has a point. What’s Mickey doing looking all pimply?
Originally, the blurb on the Disney tee gave reference to it’s inspiration, stating that”…..inspired by the iconic sleeve of Joy Division’s ‘Unknown Pleasures’ album, this Waves Mickey Mouse Tee incorporates Mickey’s image within the graphic of the pulse of a star. That’s appropriate given few stars have made bigger waves than Mickey!” however, this has now been removed from the website, as too many grumpy fans complained, presumably. And maybe they thought it would be better all round if they didn’t draw attention to the ripped offness of the design.
The t-shirts have now sold out, making Disney very joyful indeed. They might be taking the Mickey is it a joyful decision?

I love the concept of Threadless. Threadless is a design community, where t-shirt designs are submitted online by a whole stack of different people. You can then give the designs a score, and buy them!
I really like this penguin design, with a lovely Star Wars-y feel to it. With the title “Emperor” and a penguin (an emperor one presumably) it’s just the right side of cool and quirky.
From the space age, to the totally ridiculous, this parody of the Occupy movement made me chuckle too.
Well worth taking a look if you want to see some amazing designs. You might even be inspired to do a bit of designing too. Perfect soggy January fodder!

Following yesterday’s post about how Italians are going mad for t-shirts with “Keep Calm and Vada a Bordo, Cazzo!” and other slogans, I thought I would just show how easy it is with our template to create your own “Keep Calm” t-shirt, mug, hoody or other product from our extensive range.
Go to the tab that says “Designs” at the top of the front page, choose your item, and then try out your slogan and our preview option will show you how your item will look. Have a go at using different spacing or writing less words on a line to keep the text larger.
It really is the easiest way to create a brilliant slogan, which will work brilliantly as either a gift, or your own statement piece. Have a go, and have fun!

If it wasn’t such a terrible tragedy, you’d might have thought that the Costa Concordia disaster was some kind of a spoof. The Italian stallion, staying true to his roots, wining and dining a young lady, and then jumping into the lifeboat the second things go wrong.
Sadly, it’s all too true, and the recording of the coastguard official Gregorio de Falco (eloquent in the extreme) ordering the increasingly forlorn captain Francesco Schettino back on board has given rise to droves of Italians buying t-shirts with the words “Vado a bordo Cazzo!”, roughly translated as “Get back on your ship, where you belong, you lily livered cowardly, medallion wearing numpty” A Facebook page has been set up condemning the man, who allegedly tripped and fell into the lifeboat, abandoning thousands of terrified passengers. I almost feel sorry for him; this is vitriol on a social media scale. But not that sorry. The captain is supposed to be the last man on board, not the first on the lifeboat.

Inspiring!
Beyonce has been busy popping out the mini Jay-Zee of late, but the multi-tasking mega diva managed to produce a t-shirt together with her mother to help raise funds for President Obama’s re-election campaign.
The singer has hopped (and popped) on board an a project spearheaded by the Editor of American Vogue, Anna Wintour. Along with other celebrities and designers, the endevour, called “Runway to Win” aims to sell as much merchandise as possible for the president, and includes amongst other things, a t-shirt by Marc Jacobs with the slogan ‘I Vote Obama’, and various bags, scarves and wristlets. There are also pieces by Diane von Furstenberg, Tory Burch, Derek Lam, Jason Wu, Alexander Wang, you name it, they’re there, behind the scenes, squirrelling away, like er…sartorial campaign squirrels. With an army like that how can he possibly fail!

Hairy Scary or Lava Palava?
I’m quite intrigued by this Lava t-shirt from Marc by Marc Jacobs, available from Selfridges. If I hadn’t read that the print on the chest was supposed to be lava, spewing forth from an enormous erupting volcano, I might possibly have thought it was an explosion of chest hair, or a profusion of pubicness. Very Sean Connery in his Dr No years, I’m sure. And yet, maybe a little too hirsute in appearance for me.
Marc Jacobs has been tipped to take over from John Galliano following his abrupt exit from Dior. If this t-shirt is anything to go by, then he will definitely create some fireworks (or some other kind of pyroclastic mess).

Whilst doing a bit of t-shirt research, I came across something that mentioned the lovely Popeye, childhood hero and forerunner of the whole 5 a day theory. I don’t think spinach has ever had such good PR before or since. Anyway, whatever it was I read said that Popeye was the first popular character to wear a t-shirts, way back in 1929. This sent me on a nostalgia trip down memory lane, or rather the google highway, to see if I could find the sailor man himself.
Aw, they don’t make them like they used to!
In the early days t-shirts were most commonly used as underwear, so it’s no great shakes to find Popeye at home in a long sleeved number, whereas when he’s out and about, he usually has his uniform on. Still, it’s nice to know that not only was he way up on his green leafy vegetables, he was a total style icon to boot. Take that Bluto!
