11 Cheeky Message T-Shirts That Totally Get You

by Eliza Florendo

Some may wear their hearts on their sleeves, but personally, I like to wear my mood on my shirt. Thanks to cheeky and sassy message T-shirts, you no longer have to ask me how I'm feeling, but rather, just take a look at what I'm wearing. You have to admit, if we're being honest, you'd rather not make small talk about how you are and awkwardly laugh and smile around.

Anyone else hate making unnecessary conversations like I do? Maybe it's just me. But few things are worth talking about before I've had my morning coffee. Especially on Monday mornings. Luckily, T-shirts and other items of clothing have gotten an amazing new update: Having funny, sassy little comments emblazoned across them. Whether they've got angsty lyrics by Morrissey printed across, or the words "lazy," "but first, coffee," or "Chill only," these tops all feature small text with big messages: Mainly, if you're thinking of talking to me, maybe....don't.

Even Broad City has caught on, with Ilana rocking a tank top with the words "Locals Only" written in cursive in the Season 3 premiere. Of course, her whole look was completed with the bike chain around her waist, but whatevs.

See what I mean? How dope does she look? Aside from the fact that she's Ilana and possibly the funniest person ever...But still.

So while your favorite tee looks perfectly relaxed and undone with some distressed denim, nothing says "I don't care" quite like actually writing those words across your chest, or back, or sleeve. Into the concept? Check out some of my favorites, below, ranging from cutesy, to sassy messages.
