Lethal Weapon

Words are not needed for this message tee shirt. With weapons including an iron skillet, rubber bands, nun-chucks and a machete, this original illustration hand screen-printed on an American Apparel tee shirt might as well read "Don't Mess With Me". Get killer good looks by sizing down to an extra-small tee with a pair of skinny jeans and plenty of attitude. Further accessorize with a brass knuckles ring and spiked heels to be in full effect. ($24)

Royal-Tee

Can you name the current Miss World? Neither can I, so fake it and claim the crown for yourself with this fun Miss World T-shirt. Practice your pageant wave, stock up on the Vaseline and Preparation H, (for your teeth and the bags under your eyes silly!) and continue your reign until too many washings fade your sash. ($46)

Skull Trend Won't Die!

2000 years from now when archeologists dig up Flavor Flav, I imagine they'll be quite puzzled by his gold-toothed skull. I've resisted the trend thus far, (skulls, not gold teeth) but this gold-toothed skull tee shirt is changing my mind. Cute, irreverant and priced at $25 from Electric Ladyland.

The Bold and The Beautiful

The houndstooth textile pattern is supposed to be reminicent of the jagged teeth of a hound. But there's nothing dog-like about this boldly patterned crew neck tee from surf/skate designer B.B. Dakota. Pair with crayola colored bangle bracelts, a denim pencil skirt and platform heels. ($24)

Mighty Afroditee

Check out the clever merchandise from tongue in cheek clothing company Minoritees. Message tee shirts are all the rage 'mongst the celebrity types. Can't you imagine Marc Antony in the Papi Chulo?, or Erykah Badu rockin' the Fro Choice? The next tee shirt should be Hot Mess for Britney Spears. I will feel quite saucy pouncing about the neigborhood in my new Converse and Got Grits girly crew neck version. Sweet.
