My girlfriend Chelsea will not stop yapping about the t-shirts she designs and sells out of her yard. Unfortunately, it’s pretty much my own fault, so I can’t really complain. She started on this kick a few years back. She’d gotten really bored, drawn all over a white t-shirt one night, and then coloured it all in with markers. It was kind of cool in a way, but some of our friends were like â€that’s so unreal, Chelsea!†and that was all it took. Chelsea considered herself a clothing designer at that point and started buying fancy magazines featuring Prada, Gucci, Chanel, Marc Jacobs and the like. I tried to let her down gently and pointed out that Chanel doesn’t sell any product that resembles a hand scribbled t-shirt, but she got all hacked off with me and said that she’d made a new shirt especially for Donatella Versace and sent it off in the post; and since the shirt hadn’t been sent back, well then, obviously Donatella must be wearing it. I thought it far more likely that Donatella Versace’s coach driver was using the shirt to polish the tyres on her oldest Mercedes, but I kept that thought to myself. After all, everyone has to have a dream and if Chelsea’s was to be a fashion designer, who was I to stand in the way if she wants to have a dab at it? That’s when I went that one step further. I decided to help Chelsea. You see, I’d found a really cool web site one night when I was surfing around. It looked like something that might be right up Chelsea’s alley. This site let you create your own clothing designs, including tunic tops, rugby shirts, shorties, polos and of course a t-shirt. You could completely create your own designs from scratch or use a library of artwork. Best of all, this place was based in the UK, so they offered same day dispatch, free delivery and prices included VAT so there’d be no surprises. I showed the site to Chelsea. She played around with it and was happy as Larry. She used the t-shirt designer tool to create me a hot pink hoodie with a really cool little graphic that she’d designed herself and she had the text :â€Mad Hot†printed right above the picture in a really funky font. It was a nice gesture and an even nicer shirt. She’s been working at it like crazy and from what I understand she’s round the bend busy. Good for her.
