Pop Culture Clothing

This is a mediocre print, and $54.99 is kind of ridiculous for what looks like an iron-on image on a small mens undershirt.

However...if I am honest, I think I still kinda want it.  Because it's Audrey.  I think something might be wrong with me.  Fortunately, the price is so off-putting and the fit looks so iffy, this one isn't too tough to dissuade myself but...

The root of the problem is also the same reason I am strongly compelled to buy myself the T-shirt version of the Pride and Prejudice book cover even though my awesome in-laws bought me the coveted purple P&P sweatshirt as a gift, which I love and wear almost every weekend.

And the 1984 sweatshirt:

I never got wearing a T-shirt with a band much less a gigantic logo, but book cover T-shirts?  Yes, please!

I feel I genuinely need these book cover clothing articles on some deep level.  Does anyone else find themselves helplessly compulsive about random material items?  Please share, because I'm starting to feel like I have a mental disorder.

You do NOT have a mental disorder! I am currently drawn to anything and everything with brass studs. Also accordion pleated skirts. And cameo brooches.

When I'm iffy on something with a daunting price, I appease myself by stalking it to see if it goes on an amazing sale at any point. There have been victories where I've gotten enormous discounts on quality things I turned out to like better than I'd expected in my most optimistic hopes!

Oh my gosh. I NEED that P&P shirt. It's SO cute and awesome! And I agree with you re: the Audrey shirt.....it just keeps beckoning.....

How about t-shirts with quotes that rock. Not just for coffeshop Baristas, but for everyday street walkers!
