For summer I like to keep my outfits pretty simple especially when it’s blazing hot and humid out, so a cute t-shirt will do most of the time. I just browsed through American Apparel and came across this interesting Thermochromatic Sheer Jersey T-Shirt. The tee is “made with a temperature sensitive pigment that changes between two colors - one when cold, one when warm”. Kinda reminds me of “mood rings”, the colors changes when your temperature does. After reading the reviews that customers left I search Wikipedia for Hypercolor and learned about the principle, pretty interesting. I like, I think I’m going to have to cop all the colors!
I was at AA yesterday, and they were sold out of all the colors except for teal. It was kind of disappointing because the color change wasn’t very extreme on the light color. The sales girl said the red one is the best for contrast. I think I’ll skip both the blue ones and just get gray and red, if they ever get them back in stock!

I might have to get one of these just for old times sake!

Posted By: Rhamier | July 8th, 2008 at 1:46 amI think it’s silly. I saw a dress like that @ Opening Ceremony. I feel like in the summer the areas that will shine the brightest are where you sweat. No thanks on this trend.
Posted By: modelizer | July 8th, 2008 at 2:18 amI didn’t care for this type of shirt when I was a kid, and I don’t care for them now. Why would I want to look like I had just gotten out of a bleach fight?
Posted By: Amina | July 8th, 2008 at 5:54 pmlol, that was so hot when i was a little boy. all the cool kids had those t-shirts which changed colors. (obviously, i was excluded lol)
Posted By: Kiks | July 8th, 2008 at 6:40 pmCool. My shirt would end up being one color with my weather!
