Tell your shirt's story

Describe the shirt you are wearing, when and where you got it, what was happening in your life when you got it, and how you feel about it, if you have any particular feelings about it.

I have to admit I got this idea because I'm wearing a rather special shirt today.
It's gleaming white cotton, with white floss embroidery all over the front, long sleeves, and a mandarin collar. It's very loose and a little stiff, as it's the first time I've worn it. It fits me, but it's not fitted--it hides my figure pretty well, which isn't surprising when you consider I got it in Egypt.

I bought it in the Valley of the Kings, after viewing the tombs, including King Tut's! I had lingered a bit, and apparently most everyone else was already back on the bus and waiting--not just for me, but still. The seller's little ramshackle stalls, built out of rough bricks, canvas, and other more "natural" materials were in the bus parking area. The Tombs are at the far end, with a checkpoint of sorts in the middle.

I had returned past the checkpoint, but seeing that I was nearly the last person to return, had begun to jog back, bypassing the merchants, their pleas to sell me something, anything falling on nearly deaf ears. However, one enterprising merchant grabbed up an armful of things and started jogging alongside me, haggling. He held up one shirt and said, "$10 American". I looked at him like he was crazy, and he certainly was! $10 American was about 70 Egyptian pounds, and I could buy a lot with that. He started to laugh, knowing I was on to him, and started going down in price. Eventually, just before I got on the bus I bought the shirt for $3 American, which was still a tremendous markup (to give you an idea, many others on the trip bought 3-5 of the same shirts in the Tourist section of the Khan el-Khalili--mark-up heaven--for $5). I didn't even look at the shirt, he just tossed it at me as I handed over the money--we were both jogging during the entire process. I guess he earned a bit more cash, eh.

Because of outrageous time constraints, I did not get to return to the bazaars, and I didn't get any more shirts. This is the only one I brought back.
I'm afraid of what will happen to it when I have to wash it, LOL! But right now, today, it looks lovely and pristine (knock on wood), and fantastic with my blue jeans.

Who else?

I am wearing a simple teal blue v-neck thin and soft cotton 3/4 sleeve shirt that I bought at Gap. It was over a year ago, and I was looking to try to get some casual stuff that looked "cooler", since I'm pretty much ridiculously unstylish by NYC standards. So I went to Gap for some advice. Yep. Gap. To improve my style, no, really, I'm not kidding.

It probably doesn't seem that way to anyone outside of NYC... but here, the Gap is not exactly Fashion Week material. But I'm so pathetic on this stuff, that it seemed updated to me. I also bought a bright honeydew orange tank to wear under it for that layered "I don't care about matching colors" look.

In fact, I wanted to look nice for the first NYC meetup I went to, before I was even on TFP - the one at Halx's apartment - so I wore that combo with jeans that fit. It seems to have worked, Supple Cow loved the color and has become a close friend! Not to mention my other new friends from that night. So yeah... not as good as Egypt, I'm afraid!

I'm wearing a well-worn plain white longsleeve.

It's about 8 years old--I bought it when I was 15 for 15 dollars. I had a friend who didn't understand why I would pay $15 for a white longsleeve from the Gap. And I explained that my $15 shirt at the Gap goes a lot further than, say, a $10 from Wal-Mart. Sure, you're saving money in the short-term, but not in the long-term--as evidenced by my 9-year-old shirt.

It's showing its age a bit--but it's still totally wearable underneath anything, by itself, or with a t-shirt over it--and I keep wearing it!

Great thread!

I'm wearing a white T-shirt from "Go Fish Co. Ltd". On the front there are three trout facing front like the Shirelles, with the words "LOVE EM", and on the back, three trout tails with the words "LEAVE EM". The shirt promotes catch-and release fly fishing. There are red paint stains on the bottom front of the shirt.

I got this shirt for Christmas from my mom. I wore it some, although it wasn't a favorite. Then one day I helped lurkette paint our kitchen, and got "fry sauce orange" paint on it. Since then it's been one of my "comfy" shirts--I wear it to the gym, I wear it (as I am today) with pyjama pants when I sit down to work before getting cleaned up for the day.

Jess, I love that shirt! You always look great in it.

I'm wearing a hot pink t-shirt that my SIL gave me as a birthday gift last October. It came in a package in mail just before Halloween with the rest of my birthday gifts from that section of my family - my eldest brother and his wife (and by proxy, my sweet little nephew) are the only people in my immediate family who ever mail me birthday presents since I left for college five years ago. Once, my second brother threw a small gift in the box as well, but that was the birthday before last. Everybody else just waits until I come home for Christmas and I remark on something I like as we are shopping for everybody else's gifts together, saying, "Oh! Get it, I'll get it for you. I didn't get you anything for your birthday anyway." Getting the birthday care pack from my big brother and his wife always makes me cry as if on cue. It's one of the only times that that happens and I just let it happen.

My SIL always sends me funny socks and t-shirts; my brother, an obscure jazz CD or two he finds at the record shop. The last thing in there is always a fun Halloween food product because the box always arrives a couple of weeks late for my early October birthday. The one that came with this shirt was a box of bat brownies (brownie mix with a bat-shaped cookie cutter).

The shirt itself was one that I hadn't seen before and was of a level of sass that I suppose could be attributed to me, but it's not one that I would ever choose on my own. First, hot pink? That's a dangerous color for a lady who can easily look like she's 12. Then there's the print on the front - it says:

I'M NOT PLAYING HARD TO GET
I AM HARD TO GET

The text is actually in sparkly blue instead of black for "playing" and "am" and there is a sparkly light pink cat looking coy next to the words, with eyes and a collar in the same shade of blue as the two words. I'm sure all the tween girls I know would stab me in the eye with their lip gloss brushes for this shirt.

I hate it and I love it. I wear it ironically, but I then I don't. It fits my body better than any other shirt I own, and my very dear SIL picked it out and gave it to me.

Just a few months ago, I saw it for sale for the first time. In Guatemala this January, I saw it hanging next to two embarrassingly gaudy t-shirts in an awful sports bar and restaurant where my companions and I had stopped to have dinner after wandering for an hour looking for a cheap place to eat. I actually forgot my company and laughed out loud for a second when I saw it, wondering what it was sold next to wherever my SIL found it. Still, I never hesitate to put it on.

At first I though, "What a silly idea for a thread. Why, I'm just wearing some dull polo shirt..." and then I remembered where I got it.

I got it on a road trip to Boston a couple of years ago. On the way back, we headed up through Maine and stopped in at the L.L Bean flagship store. (It's huge and open 24hrs a day)

That was a really nice trip and Boston was amazing. We saw a game at Fenway, ate lots of fresh seafood and toured through the many historical and cultural sights. We camped while on the road portion of the trip through Upstate New York, Vermont and Maine, but stayed in a swanky boutique hotel while in Boston. Truly the best of both worlds.

I am wearing one of my favorite Hawaiian shirts today. It has red, blue and green flowers on a black background. Also the flowers have a gold outline around them that really makes the flowers stand out on the black.

And it is one of the few Hawaiian shirts that I actually bought in Hawaii. Off the rack in 'Hilo Hatties' in Hilo.

Freshly pressed with a pair of black slacks and a Brighton alligator belt is the epitome of 'Florida business casual'.

It's very likely that I am even more unstylish than you.

However, I would like to point out that

Honeydew = Green

Cantelope = Orange

And

Lilac
Orchid
Plum
Violet
Wisteria = PURPLE

There are only like 10 colors. And Honeydew and Cantelope don't qualify

My Crayola box only has 10 colors. So, my shirt is... blue. Kinda. There's some green in it but not as much as teal, and it's a bit lighter than blue as well. It's a Land's End long-sleeve henley (sp?). It has no significance to me. I'm dressed down today, because I'm going right from work to a school picnic with my 3-year old son. My wife probably purchased it for me.

Oh dude, there are SO more than ten colors- ask any artist.

My shirt is a heather grey t-shirt that was my hall shirt senior year in boarding school. The front says:

R2E Tonic
for the temporary relief of common boredom
S&M APPROVED!

INDICATIONS: Take shaken, not stirred, handle with care, take with Ramen, chocolate, or popcorn

MAY CAUSE: hyperactivity, increased entropy, spasms of the diaphram, excitability- especially in adolescent males.

15 female unit count

And on the back it lists everyone's names and their crowning achievement of senior year... thus mine reads Sage "The towelless wonder"... but that's another story.

It has only one point of distinction: it was made in Canada. I have never in my life before owned a Canadian-made tee shirt. I didn't think such things existed :-).

This shirt is very special to me. It's pre-owned. Forever and a day ago, when we were all young and carefree, it was passed around a circle of my girlfriends. I earned sole possesion of it 3 years ago after my girlfriend had her second baby, and deemed it to childish. But anyway, it's so special because it's the last remnant that I have of those friends, and that time.

It's threadbare and worn now, and will provobley disappear like those friends and my youth...and I guess I will be naked, and alone......

I am currently sporting a non-descript grey t-shirt. This, a pair of black jeans (Levi Strauss brand) and a pair steel toe boots were my entire wardrobe for maybe two years straight (a leather jacket was added in the tail end of that, when I could afford one). I seem to be having a bit of a throw-back day today, since I'm wearing a pair of black Levi's to go with my grey t-shirt.

I have no idea where I got it. It's honestly one of about six in my wardrobe.

Solid green (kelly green) short-sleeve button shirt, Roundtree & York, purchased at Dillard's.

Whenever my wife goes into Dillard's, I wander over into the men's section to see if anything is on Clearance. This shirt only cost $4.99 since it was December and nobody was interested in short-sleeve shirts at the time.

Since I have orange hair and I'm wearing light khakis with this shirt, I look like a big Irish flag.

Everytime I wear it, I run into somebody who wants it. I've seriously had friends offer to pay me for it. Possibly because the shirt is WRONG. It's got Raphael centered, but holding the wrong weapon! He's using the katana instead of the sai. :P

The symbol is a Wonder Woman symbol, but it is worn by both the current Wonder Woman (Donna Troy) and the current Wonder Girl (Cassie Sandsmark), so I suppose it could be either.

An awful green colored shirt with orange lettering. It reads: "I'm from Milwaukee and that's not funny." Here's a pic of it:


That's not me in the pic.

My sister bought it for me for Christmas a couple of years ago. I think that people started saying "I'm from Milwaukee and that's not funny" around the time of Dahmer's arrest and the cryptosporidium contamination of the water supply (much of the city had diarrhea). Both happened in the same Summer.

Now if I can just find myself a good George Webb's t-shirt...

I don't know why I opened this thread. I'm terribly hungover and I couldn't be bothered to put on a shirt after my shower. I'm having a hard time with this unusual humidity (it has drizzled all week and we got 32mm last night).

But last night I wore my "Its a Riel Thing" with a picture of Louis Riel on it. It is wonderfully Canadian and reveals the historical ignorance of many canadians.

It was given to me as a wedding gift from an ex-girlfriend who I hadn't talked to for about 2 years prior to the wedding. She had no reason to know I was getting married and no reason to give me a gift. I rather like it, but Mrs.Bossnass doesn't like how much I like it; unfortuatly I exclaimed about how great it was before I realized who had given it. In all fairness, I still don't know how the gift got into the stack/to the gift opening. So I wear it when I'm not going to be seen by my wife.

I'm wearing a blue t-shirt. It's actually sorta striped, with two alternating shades of blue. I like it because the colors are somewhat calming.

I bought it at least 5 years ago, before I had come to the US. I got it from a store in Beirut down the street from our house. My mom sometimes got me t-shirts from that store. Which reminds me, I need to update my wardrobe.. But I still like having things from home.

A black island shirt with gold and grey flowers all over it. Not what they would like me to wear in the office, but when you have some time in and know where some of the skeletons are, you can pretty much wear what you want as long as it isn't board meeting day. Don't even remember where I got it. It is just one of my extensive collection of island shirts. I think it was what I was wearing the other day when I posted myself right effn now.

Wearing it of course with Levis and my Tony Lama boots!

I went online and found some funny shirts at www.phatrags.com

I wore a blue shirt last night that said "My Pen Is Huge" and it has a picture of a big pen. I love it. It captures my sense of humour.


Today I am wearing a olive drab hemp t-shirt. I got it in Winnipeg about 5 years ago. The guy said that the more you wear it and wash it, the softer and warmer it gets. He is right. I am looking for more hemp clothes, but unfortunately this place is the capital of Redneck Central Administration, and as such I will have to look pretty hard.

Hey, if you are impressed with my memorizing pi to 10 digits, you should see the size of my penis.

Right now I'm wearing a blue and white striped long sleeve dress shirt. I bought it right after I got my current job, which is my first job after college and I had to buy some appropriate office attire. I think I bought it on sale for about $13.00. It is just about worn out and needs to be replaced.
