Gemmo Correll “Nope” t-shirt by Ohh Deer (£9.95)

Coming in at under a tenner, the cheapest item in our round-up is this t-shirt by Gemma Correll for Ohh Deer. This one would make the perfect Monday outfit as the “nope” character sums up the feeling of being done with a week before it has even begun.

Abstract Tee by Poketo ($36)

Onto the simplest design in our round-up. This abstract design is made up of shapes inspired by the seaside. The design strikes a delicate balance between shape and colour to create a sleek tee.

“Loosen Your Neck” t-shirt by Andrew Rae (£19)

Andrew Rae runs a shop selling t-shirts filled with his many wondrous characters. Moonhead And The Music Machine is one of our favourite graphic novels so we love the idea of showing support for Joey Moonhead by wearing this top. It’s kind of like a classic band t-shirt with an illustrative twist.
