Animal faces on clothes really peaked 
last summer, and being an UNfashionista, I jumped on the train just as 
it was losing steam, acquiring 3 tacky cat shirts near the end of the 
summer!
No mind that I am about a year behind the cutting edge, I really love cats on clothes!
The first buy was Galacticat, which I'm sure you remember after its blazing public success in September.
The
 second was more of a blistering failure, when I forgot to specify my 
desired color (black) and ended up with a grey cat face on a grey 
background, which is so ugly I refuse to wear it and can't even imagine
 I'll get any money reselling it.  
The
 third was this marvelous huge sad cat T-shirt that I got for just 5 
dollars in the men's department at Urban Outfitters. Yes, I felt like a 
true baller for shopping at such an above-my-station venue, and I felt 
like I had true balls for shopping in men's. Of course, I worried that 
the 5 dollar price tag indicates that this trend is already on the outs,
 but I see that they still have plenty of other tacky cat shirts on their website!
 Maybe if I'm lucky, it'll stay cool long enough for me to wear it next 
spring, after I've applied my magic scissors and made it a little more 
my style. (Stay tuned for that DIY.)
