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.

Most people would agree it’s quite difficult to get your head around the the idea of staggeringly beautiful and/or handsome androgynous model Andrej Pejic. Do you think he’s better looking as a woman, or as a man? Are you supposed to find him attractive in either guise? Does he look like a girlish man or a masculine woman? Is that an angular chin which is softened by those cheekbones and that hair, or is it the other way around? It is a bit of a head mess, but I would imagine that the controversy surrounding him does him no harm at all. In fact it is proving to be really rather lucrative, what with a massive arvertising campaign for Danish company’s Hena push up bras, and countless catwalk appearances.

I love this look from a fashion show for Auslander in Brazil. Pejic is wearing a t-shirt with the slogan “Oh Lord, I have sinned”, an brilliant statement considering the reaction he generates. Although sinning is a bit strong, maybe confused is more fitting!

Whether it be fireworks and banging (that’ll be the head the next day), or an early night with a nice quiet book and a cup of cocoa, have a wonderfully happy new year from all of us at T-shirt Studio. And what a year an amazing year it’s been. Well, ish. Riots, Nick Clegg and Kim Kardashian’s short-lived wedding have kept us despairing of the planet’s future. And we already have an idea of what will keep us entertained next. The 2012 Oympics, Jeremy Clarkson causing extreme outrage amongst people who never watch him on the telly, and more celeb marriages that last about as long as a piece of chewing gum. Hey ho! Well, here’s to the first t-shirt of 2012, the first of very many. Hic!

After reading somewhere in the paper that most of the sales shoppers were from far away lands and were thus not paying any VAT on their shopping, I thought I might invoke a bit of the Lord Kitchener spirit and make a t-shirt inviting shoppers to spend a bit more, just to bolster the economy a bit. Not that it needs it. It’s all fine, dandy and about to dance a jig. Honest. But just in case, y’know……

Hopefully, you will have survived Christmas much as I have…with extra padding to get you through the new year. Happily, I am full of presents, brussels sprouts and stuffed to within an inch of my waistline, thus I’m not expecting to achieve much more today, and the Zzzzz’s are looming.

The T-shirt Studio team is having a rare day off and revelling in the Christmas Spirit. Armed with festive t-shirts and personalised gifts, they have been Santa’s little helpers and are now having a well earned Yuletide rest.

A Merry Christmas one and all, and I hope your presents were as good as mine!!!

Christmas is a looming and it the turkey isn’t stuffed by now then you will be. I love to be prepared in the manner of Delia, Nigella or even (though it pains me to say it) Jamie, so that Christmas Eve is a relaxed and enjoyable time, without too many last minute panics, like who bought the brussel sprouts and did everyone know that Aunty X is allergic to cloves, stuffing and absolutely everything else that is going on the table.

For the actual culinary pinacle that is shoving the turkey into the oven and wedging the door shut with a chair, I like to don the Christmas t-shirt. It’s one of those traditions which started one year when I realised I didn’t have an apron, and has become a bit of a thing. The Christmas tee changes every year, but carries the same sentiment; don’t mess with the turkey chef. I feel it sends a definite message at this festive time, and tells people, politely (ok I’ve censored it) to Back. Right. Off.

I love our t-shirt templates. So much fun to play around with and far easier than actually having to come up with any ideas yourself. A good thing at this time of year, when the little grey cells are severely compromised by trying to come up with interesting gifts for under a tenner.

I love this snowflake print. Full of festive cheer and great fun to come up with little slogans or names to go in the middle. It looks as though you spent ages coming up with something creative, stylish and fun. In reality it took two seconds and was as easy as overdoing it with the mince pies. We really are Santa’s little helpers, aren’t we!

After naughty minx Rihanna performed on the X Factor with rude words on her shoes, I was dying to read what was printed on her t-shirt at the Jingle Bell Ball. Her cut off tee features a long piece of writing with DANGER scrawled across the top in red. Rihanna just doesn’t do subtle and demure so I’m guessing it’s something pretty saucy.  A great twist on the slogan tee, as it’s one of those ones that everyone wants to read, but the writing is just a little bit too small.

You can bet that where quirky British designer Giles Deacon leads, the most sartorially dynamic will follow. A major innovator, famous for his slogan t-shirts, Deacon wore an ensemble of half dinner suit half cammo trousers at the British Fashion awards last night.

Getting his Freak On!

Steal a style march and do a Giles Deacon. get your freak on with a personalised cammo t-shirt, and be a top fashionista!
