T-Shirts 3.31.10
Threadless has a lot of new designs that we are quite fond of, including Pros & Cons, 8-Bit Blues, Real Peanuts, A Vehicle Built for Dreams, and Here Comes the Airplane!. There's also a beautiful reprint, Liberty.
Glennz Tees has a new design, Big Meal.
Finally, Busted Tees has stopped selling woman's sizes. We are quite saddened by this as we know that men's sizes rarely fit a woman's body. Therefore, we are no longer going to write about their new designs. They do have some great designs though, so if you are looking for a present for a man in your life, do still check them out.

Wrap Cardigan by Haute Hippie
We really like the way the Wrap Cardigan by Haute Hippie
comes together into a wrap with the two buttons at the front but still looks fabulous when open. It has a shawl collar, long sleeves, and ribbed cuffs. It is made from a cotton, silk, and cashmere blend and is also available in black but is about to sell out in that color.

Perfect for pairing with jeans and a simple tee or tank. There are patch hip pockets, a zipper down the front, button-tab detail gathers at the cuffs, elbow length dolman sleeves, and a solid lining at the hood.

We don't always love the single shoulder strap look, but in the Ruffle One Shoulder Top by Geren Ford, it is really cute. This blouse features an asymmetrical neckline, rounded hem, and frayed and asymmetrical ruffles at the two inch strap. The blouse is also made from a silk and cotton blend.
People Like Me!
People Like Me! is a t-shirt company that has some designs unlike any other we've seen. They think people take themselves too seriously and the world not seriously enough, so their designs are witty, a bit ironic, and definitely memorable. We especially like the tee Vain, and they have lots of other funny and interesting designs such as Heartless and Consumer. They also sell men's sizes and bags and accessories. This is one t-shirt site we are definitely going to watch in the future. If they come out with more designs like the ones they have now, they will become one of our favorites!

Willow Tank by Ella Moss
The Willow Tank by Ella Moss would be perfect for the Shirt Snob.

Sick for Cute
Sick for Cute is so familiar to the Shirt Snob, but we cannot find a record of having ever written about them. It's a shame because they have some super adorable designs. According to their website, this t-shirt company
aims to be a super awesome shop that caters especially to adults of all ages who are attracted to the cuter, dorkier, and most supreme things in life!
Those who started this company also ran Kid Pirate, so that could be why their designs do look familiar. Some of our favorite tees are Little Red Riding Hood, Cute Weiners, and Rainy Day.
T-shirts 3.11.10
Here are the new tees that we have liked over the past few weeks. First there is Pet Feeder which is the newest design over at Glennz Tees.
Threadless has some reprints such as One of These Days, We'll Fly Away!, Mmm...Oranges and A Simple Plan. Then there's new designs Fisherman's Find and Sir Rhyddcelot.
Finally, we think In Full Bloom at Brand of the Free is a very pretty design.
