So rove away, you raven girls
Well... it's a long time since we've had a Friday t-shirt amnesty, isn't it? So, tell me what you're wearing...
I appreciate that these days, lots of people are too grown-up, professional or oppressed by their employers to be wearing t-shirts on Fridays. Some of you may be none of those things, but choose not to wear t-shirts. So I'll settle for whatever it is you're wearing on your top half.
I've got my beautiful, brand new Hedingham Fair silver, gold and black "Three Ravens" t-shirt on.
Now, I was going to (a) link to a picture of my t-shirt on their website and (b) recommend Hedingham Fair, but their website turns out to be really horrible to use. Everything's there, but very hard to find (mostly due to rather non-orthogonal classification). Also, the Three Ravens design is new and doesn't seem to have made it up there yet. Or into their catalogue. You'll just have to trust me that it's beautiful.
Anyway! Horrible website notwithstanding, Hedingham Fair sell some lovely things. T-shirts with folky customs, instruments or pagan designs on them plus a wide variety of other stuff. Possibly of interest to some of you is that in addition to a large selection of Christmas cards they sell cards for Yule, the Winter Solstice, Imbolc... all manner of things. Plus birthdays, and blank-for-your-message, and so on.
They're worth checking out. If the website is a bit un-navigable, try downloading their catalogue. Or you could go and find them at a festival.

I'm only just warm enough in my t-shirt, but maybe our aircon is a bit fierce.
<peers out of window>
It doesn't look warm, but that's caught me out several times recently.

My green Desigual top/T-shirt. The one with all the green and the sparkly shoulder and gold stitches. That one :-)

Work freebie!
I don't have to wear work related t-shirts, but it saved me going to the effort of working out if any other tshirt was work suitable (eg not a band t-shirt as that isn't allowed and not one with a dalek on as Dawn has Dalek-phobia etc).

My excuses (as if needed) for dressing like this are that it's 6.30am and I've a guest in the house. A guest who happens to have great taste in cartoon t-shirts. When we first met, she was working in a wholefood shop and wearing a t-shirt with a selection of dog breeds. I purchased lentils and made a friend for life. Last night she wore this http://www.banksytshirts.org/womens/tshirts/chickenandtheeggwomenstshirt.html Rather her than me, to tell the truth. Jokey or slogany t-shirts aren't my thing.
Why am I not surprised that you like Hedingham Fair? I'm in love with their hedgerow earrings http://www.hedinghamfair.co.uk/hedgerow_earrings.htm Don't wear them to work because they don't blend in with my suits and pinstripes but in my unprofessional life, my ears sprout conkers, blackberries or apple cores. It may be time to purchase another pair. I actually wrote to Colin Cater of that company, requesting hedgehog earrings. He said he'd ask his artist to get inspired. If hedgehogs turn up in the catalogue in future, you heard it here first.

I do wear jokey or slogany t-shirts a lot, but still think there are many which I see which I wouldn't wear. Often they have something funny on them, but I think it's only funny once - certainly not something I want to have to look at time after time. And sadly many t-shirts with writing on them don't seem to have been designed with the female form in mind (or possibly they're designed to encourage intent peering, which I usually choose not to do).

Black girl-fit Nightmare On Elm Street shirt with the Freddy rhyme in small print on the front ("One, two, Freddy's coming for you...") and the film title and release date on the back. Sadly a promo from the remake and not the original, but still pretty cool.

Sounds hideous. Looks ok.
