French t-shirt design company Zoe Tees was founded in 2004 in Paris by creative director Laure Pariente as a sartorial reaction to the t-shirts she saw around her. She wanted to create flattering basics, with elegant lines and a quality feel to the garments.

The range is now sold globally, and is fast becomming a cult label with online shops including Net-a-Porter, mywardrobe.com and ASOS.

I rather like this ‘Love’ t-shirt. With a huge print, and an unfinished neckline, a lovely drapey feel, and a really comfortable look, it’s sure to be a sell out.

ZoeTees has a feel to it that is a bit like Wildfox Couture but more understated. Hugely popular nonetheless and well worth keeping an eye out for them in the sales. Oh yes, I forgot to mention, there is a little bit of a downside. They don’t come cheap, with the little number opposite retailing for £92. Far too much, in my opinion, for a t-shirt, but the prices do go right down in the sales, so you can snap them up a lot cheaper if you shop around. ASOS have some brilliant bargains, but it’s so easy to get distracted by all the other stuff on there, you start to lose track of time. Anyway, there you have it. ZoeTees….great in sales!

The sales have started and shoppers are buzzing around like a host of demented bees in the hope of getting a pre Christmas bargain. So it’s time to have a little look around at those things you always want, but can’t afford until a big chunk has been knocked off the price. I love this t-shirt by the wonderful Elvis Jesus, available from ASOS for the reduced price of £54 (from £90). Featuring a relaxed round neck with a huge and gorgeous piece of embroidery on the front, this is one tee you will want to own for ever.

A New Silk Tee!

Online clothing store ASOS started life as a web based provider of celebrity copies. Since it’s foundation in 2000 with only three employees, ASOS (an acronym for As Seen On Screen) has become the UK’s biggest online only fashion and beauty store.

Now featuring a diverse range of labels it caters mainly for a price concious teen to young adult market. It’s major advantage is that it showcases so many different brands, although to my mind, that can be a bit of a hindrance as well. I do tend to get a bit overwhelmed, a bit like reading a takeaway menu; you just end up wishing there were only two choices.

I do love this slogan tee however, from very happening label Vila. A lovely boat neck silk tee, with mid length sleeves and a deep scoop to the back. A really brilliant alternative to a cotton tee, and the fabric looks amazing. What is particularly good about ASOS is that every item features a little catwalk movie, so you can see how garments look.

Well worth checking out if ever you feel the need to browse, browse and browse some more!

Just the mere thought of Mad Men’s Christina Hendricks is enough to make grown men weep. But the sight of the curvy one slurping the wobbliest of jelly on a film set will finish most red blooded males off entirely!

So, here’s Christina in a lovely Wildfox Couture t-shirt, sucking on a spoonful of dessert, just a warning though; might turn your legs to er….jelly!

Mmmmm, delicious!

That’s probably it for the rest of the day now. Christina and the spoon will take over. Luckily, it’s Friday, so a good day to wind down early. Phew!

So, either we go for the t-shirt Christina is wearing, available from ASOS.

Be like The Curvy One!

This is a pretty good start, and you could get quite a lot of fun out of it. Or you could just have a little dribble over Christina at her finest, up to you!

The Green Goddess!

One man's religion!

Having seen the lovely Tolula Adeyemi wearing a t-shirt by Religion in the “Today I’m Wearing” section in Vogue, I thought it would be good and proper to check out what else Religion has on offer.

Lots of moody cheekbone-y models wearing a great selection of either skinny leggings or  circulation impairing jeans teamed with an amazing selection of graphic t-shirts, some black and white, and others like the one Tolula was wearing, with a mixture of black and white prints and colours.

I had a rather a loud chortle when I saw this men’s t-shirt on ASOS featuring a beautiful bikini body with the “I heart” at the top and the scantily clad torso stretching down the front of the t-shirt. It looks kind of incongruous on a man, but therein lies the humour, I guess.
