Paris Hilton wearing a t-shirt with her own face on it.... astounding


The last post was clearly far too positive and classy, so I thought I’d better bring things down a notch with a post about Paris Hilton. It takes a very special person to wear a t-shirt with their own face on it.*

*I own a tee with my face on it (a birthday present), but I’m not nearly narcissistic enough to post a picture of myself wearing it.


I don’t have a problem with political designs on t-shirts, if you want to say something and feel that a tee is the best way to go about it then go ahead, be my guest, my only problem with political tees is that they usually go for substance over style. If you’re going to go to all the bother of printing a tee, why not make it look good?

I get the feeling that Pop Vulture might be on the same wavelength with me in this, because their tees have graphics on them that don’t look like clip art. They raise a lot of good and important points with their designs, which are accompanied on the product pages with facts and clippings related to that tees issue (on the flash site, not the retail site). Oh, and they don’t like Paris Hilton, awesome.

I know that a lot of people find their way to HYA by searching for what celebrities wear, even though celebrity-based posts account for less than 1% of all the posts written, so I’m sure that quite a lot of people will be interested in Spoiled Brat. SB is a site that sources clothing that celebrities have been spotted wearing, and lets you buy them, simple as that. You can even search through the clothing by celebrity; lets say you’re a fan of Lindsay Lohan’s style, you can just click on her page and a selection of items she’s been seen wearing pops up. For some of the celebrities the selection is rather lacking, just one item for Avril Lavigne and Scarlett Johansson, but then for someone like Paris Hilton there’s three pages of items. It’s not just for women either, men can get in on the action too, admit it dudes, you want to look like David Beckham. Since its a British site there is obviously a skew towards British celebrities, so you Americans might be a bit confused as to who some of the people are, and the prices are definitely British too (=high).
