fff vol 19

This week has flown by (I'm not complaining!) Have you ever had so many things to do, you get this insane overwhelming feeling and just can't even move so you don't end up doing anything?! That's how I feel this week has been. I think it's a mix of overwhelmed by the amount of things I want to get accomplished and then mix in a little bit of frustration that there are things I am thinking in my head but are not coming out the way I want them to. Practice and patience, I know!

So anyway, this weekend is father's day! I love my dad, he's the coolest. He has just the right mix of sarcasm  and wit. He also can make and do anything. He's amazing. Saying all this, he is also impossible to get gifts for. He is always doing things for everyone else and never wants anything for himself. I wanted to make him something (but that was one of the "things in my head that didn't come out as well as I wanted") so I'm at a loss. My mom is always super easy..my dad..not so much! Is anyone going to be hanging out with your dads on Sunday? If so, are you getting them anything or doing anything for them? I need suggestions on what to do for the impossible person to shop for!

So moving into favorite finds. I think I may change it up a little this week (and maybe weeks in the future). I am a tee-shirt and pants type of girl. No joke, I have well over 100 tee shirts and everyone is always commenting on them and asking me where I get them. "You always have the coolest shirts" gets said to me on a daily basis when I go into the office. So..I thought I'd share five tee shirts that I would currently like to add to my ever expanding collection. This week I'll keep it simple and tell you they are all from Threadless. Now, if you don't know what Threadless is, my question to you is "Is today your first day on the internet?"
But well.. For those that are new to the internets?! Threadless is an awesome website in which you submit in artwork, people (ie YOU) vote and if you have enough votes, your tee shirt goes into production.

Alright..so top 5 tee-shirts I want this week!

"Lemon Aid"



"Birdphabet"



"Bareback" (this one is awesome because the picture wraps around from the front to the back of the shirt



"Koohii no hito"



"Steampunk 1852"

So head on over to Threadless and see what you've been missing. I wonder how many of my shirts are threadless, I'm thinking well over 40-50? Yes, I have a tee shirt obsession haha

Have a good weekend everyone!

I love threadless too! I have collected about 20 shirts over the years and although I am currently about 30 lbs too big for them (unless I wanted them to be tight..which I'm not into...), I totally love them! That bird one is totally a new favourite too! Great selection!

awesome, another threadless lover. 99.9% of my shirts are from 3 sources: Threadless, Gama-Go and Johnny Cupcakes. i havent gotten any new ones in a while, for threadless i usually go a little crazy when they have their 10$ sales. but ive tried to be better seeing that i have stacks and stacks and then a whole other truck of shirts (that i havent even dug into in a couple years) i actually even have some threadless ones ive never worn, they get on the bottoms of the piles and i forget about them haha
I bought a medium Mary Poppins one years ago and was never small enough to fit into it. I thought about giving it to a clothing swap but love it too much! I should make a tote bag out of it....

yeah, their shirts run very small - all those companies do. i mean i'm a small person - 5'4/120lbs and i have to get larges and sometimes depending on which shirt it is - they are still small across the chest. i think they are all made for 12 year olds with no boobs haha but thats okay, i still love them

but great idea about making the shirt into something - i seriously have so many i dont wear just because of how many i have, i should make some of them into things.
I guess that's the risk we run for buying online. I honestly don't understand how sizing works anywhere (not just at Threadless). I can be anything from a small to a double xl! Gah!
