The search for the face of Streetshirts '09 has meant an exciting but tough year for all here in the office!  We had trouble deciding on the final six models, so now understandable we are finding it a little difficult to choose the overall winners! 

After a fabulous photoshoot and much debating we managed to narrow it down to our six stunning favourites...Kimberley, Ayesha, Gabrielle, Dominique, Simon and Antoine.  However we thought we could use a hand from our fellow fashionistas to choose the overall winners!  So what are you waiting for!  Go to www.streetshirts.co.uk/modelcomp and get voting!      

Some of 2009's freshly tipped acts are heading down to the London college of fashion, where they will spend the day with the stylish student clad.  Zarif and Speech Debel, New Young Pony Club and Nate James are just a few of the rising stars set to spend some time swapping ideas and collaborating a range of new tee designs.  The t-shirt creations produced will be displayed in none other than London's Carnaby Street.  You will be able to check them out from March 16th. 

Katie White, the ting tings lead singer, has a scruffy yet feminine look going on.  Taking style notes from the likes of Karen O and Debbie Harry, she creates a quirky cool mixed-up look.  The singer opts to throw several trends together even if that means teaming a pretty dress with baseball boots.

Neon bright and acid colours burst onto the summer catwalks, so bright it hurts our eyes!  Luella Bartley brought psychedelic Sunday best to the runway, in a shade of dashing purple and vivid orange.  It’s an eye catching, graphic look that will create maximum impact in the form of hard-edged noughties neon. 

This season has been a contrast of hard-edged looks and tailored shapes, so what better way to accentuate the trend, than with key monochrome detail.  Think black lace, playful bows and sophisticated pattern.  The A-list is going crazy for this trend, so make sure you follow in their fashion footsteps.  Team punky with smart casual for a quirky twist, a la Zoe Kravitz, who toughens up a sweet dress with killer boots and a quirky cap.  If you prefer the sophisticated ensemble copy Gwyneth Paltrow and go for a demure lace number.

Statement jewels, pretty threads and glam luxe evening attire…what more do you need for your party wardrobe?  A/W 08 catwalk was most certainly cavorting cocktail chic to the max.  It seems no matter the occasion or your style the key is to make a statement!  Opt for key pieces, such as bling jewellery, glam clutches and statement shrugs. 

Shoes, dresses, tees and bags…are there any items the A/W catwalk hasn’t zipped up!  This edgy punk look is still rocking the runway and now celebrities are embracing the trend.  With stars such as Helena Christensen and Agyness Deyn working this fashion, it’s almost certain to stick around till next season!

Julie Verhoevan, a diligent fashion associate has made sure to put her stamp on this year’s seasonal greetings, with exclusive card designs.  Created for the Royal College of Art, the festive creations feature elements of broken baubles, glitter and candles, along with a touch of the designer’s signature style.   Entitled ‘ho ho ho’ each card shows a detailed illustration of a woman’s face.  The best bit, all funds raised will go to students of the RCA. 

Now don’t we just love a creative cause?  Have a go at making your own Christmas tree card designs at Streetshirts or even put a personal message on a tshirt and get sending festively inspired greetings to all your friends! 

Barbie, neon, bubblegum and every shade between…pink is set to get hotter and looks to be the color of spring.  It might seem a dramatic transition from the darkness of Goth-glam, but like it or not, think pink and you’ll stay ahead in the style stakes!  It’s almost as if fashion is fighting back against the winter sea of black.  Neon-brights and acid colors are set to burst onto the summer/spring catwalks. 

Whatever your shade, express it on a tshirt...its a trend that pops, perfect for brightening up any dull day!
