Sleeve Appeal
I love the idea of this T-shirt; the body is one color but the short sleeves sport a beautiful, contrasting print. And it’s a lovely shade of green.
At UnikatHK at Etsy.com for $60.Extra Luxe
Okay, no one would want to pay $90 for a T-shirt. (Well, I suppose you might if you had nothing better to spend your money on.) And this isn’t really just a T-shirt. But how often can you say you’re wearing a shirt handmade by an independent designer? Whether it’s the [...]
Simple and Pretty
What do I love about this shirt? Both the classic red color and the simple babydoll shape. It doesn’t hurt that it’s on sale.
At Lady Language for $18.Sam Trout
I love it when I get contacted by T-shirt designers — and it doesn’t happen very often. But Sam Trout sent me the nicest email with a link to the T-shirts he designs.
I love this T-shirt because of the all-over design. Koi fish frolic all over this dark blue T-shirt with a sexy [...]Ginger Tee
I have no idea why this is called a Ginger Tee, but it sure is cute. This is the T-shirt to wear when you need to bump it up a notch. This would look amazing with a pair of dark, skinny jeans and some cool flats. I love this soft green, but it [...]
Naughtiness on Sale
Locher’s was one of the first sites I featured on this blog. These T-shirts contain slogans ranging from just a little naughty to downright raunchy. But you’re fooled by the beautiful embroidery and the elegant script. This one says “I don’t play nice.”
Right now, they’re having a sale: free shipping anywhere until [...]Takes You Into Fall
How awesome would this Efflorescent Smock from Francesca’s Collections look with a super-skinny pair of dark jeans and flats? Once fall comes, add a cute bolero shrug and you’re ready to go.
At Francesca’s Collections for $38.Tunic or Tee?
I really don’t care that ModCloth calls this the Artist’s Tunic. It’s close enough to a T-shirt for me. A great shape, adorable collar and very cute print. Snap it up now.
At ModCloth for $39.99Anthropologie
I have to admit, this isn’t a place I’d normally shop for a T-shirt. However, this T-shirt, in my new favorite shape, really caught my eye. The brown shirt with its off-center bow is accented with coral rickrack trim. Very cute.
At Anthropologie.com for $58.New from Etsy
I’ve been a very bad blogger lately, so today there are
two T-shirts to get your weekend started. These two tops are from EllainaBoutique at Etsy. I’m slightly partial to the mod dots, but both are adorable and a nice step up from your average T-shirt.
At EllainaBoutique at Etsy for $38 and $30, respectively.Pop!
Check out the fabulous pop of color on this T-shirt, called Watermelon Dahlias. A bright, sunny, summer color and it would look perfect with a pair of dark jeans. T-shirt by Supermaggie.
At Cut + Paste for $44.Floral Beauty
Check out this beautiful handmade T-shirt, with a navy/purple retro floral look. This will look fabulous with a pair of dark jeans.
At Heartistic at Etsy for $24.Striking
What a statement! I love the crisp white, lacy pattern against the black. No need for jewelry when you’ve got something this striking.
At muttsywonder at Etsy for $25.Sexy in Red
I really admire designers who can take a simple T-shirt and really up the drama. This sexy red T-shirt totally measures up. A great form-fitting shape, fabulous color and adorable rosette accents make this a step above the average T-shirt.
From 5trillion at etsy.com for $45.More Etsy Finds
I’ve known of Etsy for awhile, but it’s only recently that I’ve been spending so much time there. Which is going to cause serious problems for my credit card debt. I’m completely envious of so many talented people.
I love this gorgeous T-shirt because it combines colors that I would never put together: [...]Dice Tunic Tee
Thanks to the lovely ladies over at Love It A Lot, I checked out Plasticland. They’ve got a great collection of clothes and accessories from independent and boutique designers. And, of course, I found some great T-shirts, including this one. There are three accents on one shoulder, but the back is even [...]
Modishoppe
Everyone else (Mixed Plate, Love It a Lot and design*sponge) seems to be blogging about Modishoppe today, so I thought I’d join the crowd. The shop is new and they have some truly gorgeous T-shirts. Though this sage green ruffle polo isn’t technically a T-shirt, it’s close enough for me. Definitely [...]
Not the Average T-Shirt
This is not your average T-shirt. It’s appropriate for work, without looking too formal, and would be just fabulous with a pair of dark, skinny jeans for a night out. The combination of modern fabrics and vintage details makes this T-shirt a must-have.
At studioxtine at etsy for $58.
