Where Did Men’s T-Shirts Come From?

By far the most popular garment for the male sex is the classic men’s t-shirt. Everyone owns them and it’s hard to think of a time when they weren’t in production. Surprisingly, it wasn’t that long ago.

The first t-shirts that we know today started to appear in early 1913 in the United States. The US Navy was issuing them to all new recruits to be warn as undergarments. They served their purpose as protection from the bitter cold and as a step further from pneumonia if a sailor was to be caught in the icy sea. They were produced incredibly cheaply and easily and it wasn’t long before all of the forces were giving them out to new recruits as part of the standard uniform.

The Great Depression was a tough time for all American families and ways of dressing comfortably and cheaply were essential. It was not uncommon for men to wear t-shirts underneath their uniforms when working in factories and out on fields.

During the 1920s, US dictionaries had started printing the word ‘t-shirt’ and it became common in everyday language, even if everyone didn’t own one. It was no surprise that as the Second World War got closer, soldiers were once again issues with them as part of their uniform packs.

They became the cool, stylish item to have in the 1950's when Marlon Brando wore nothing but men’s t-shirts during the hit film ‘A Streetcar Named Desire’. Everyone wanted one and this is when business minds realised that there was a market for them.

As the 60’s and 70s drew to a close, everyone wore t-shirts whether it was promotion of some kind, a slogan from a movie or a protest aid. Since then, men’s t-shirts have been common every day wear for men all around the world and the garment doesn't seem to be going anywhere soon.

The Best Styles of Summer Dresses

There's nothing more exciting than wearing your best summer dresses when the sun is out. Summer dresses are the perfect item of clothing for your holiday abroad, summer barbecues or chilling out in beer gardens with your friends. No matter what you'll find a summer dress which will make you feel stylish and cool on those hot summer days.

A summer dress will take you right through summer in style. You can dress down with a pair of sandals or flip-flops or you can easily glam them up with a pair of high-heels and some flashy jewellery.

If you have a summer dress you love but unsure about whether you can wear it when the weather changes, then you can combine it with a pair of leggings or tights and layer it up with a cardigan so you can keep extra warm in the winter.

There are so many different styles of summer dresses that you'll always be able to find one that suits your body shape and your style which will make you look fabulous in the sun. These 3 different styles of summer dresses are my top choices and are definitely in my wardrobe for the summer.

Strappy Dresses
Most summer dresses have narrow/thin straps and finish on or above the knee. These types of dresses often have an a-line shape, which is feminine and flatters most body shapes. They come in a huge range of styles and patterns so be sure to pick one that best suits you.

Maxi Dresses
This year maxi dresses are a must have for summer. The key thing with a maxi dress is to make sure that the length on them finishes right at your ankle.  A maxi dress is great for wearing day into night, simply switch your footwear from sandals to heels, add some sparkles and you're good to go party.

Strapless Dresses
The strapless dresses are cute and feminine so they're a great choice for summer if you want to show of your shoulders. By choosing a strapless dress it means you won't get the dreaded strap mark tan lines if you're wearing it out in the sun. If you do plan on wearing this style of dress then make sure you buy a good strapless bra. If you don't feel comfortable showing off your arms then throw on a light cardigan for that extra bit of cover up.

For quality cheap summer dresses check out our whole range of stock on the Everything5Pounds website.


A Guide to Looking Slimmer What Ever Your Shape

If you look around you whilst out shopping you'll see that every woman will have a body which is a unique shape and size.Therefore it is very important you appreciate your figure and the way you look in order to find the best fashion styles for you! This will not only mean that you always look your best but it's a great way to feel young and look slimmer!


Apple Body Shaped
The apple body shape is a very common one amongst women. If you have this body shape and want to wear dresses which show of your curves you might want to try wearing some quality, well-fitting underwear which will make your stomach appear flatter. As for tops and skirts you will want ones that have a broad neckline. Also try and stay away from tight fitting clothes. Why not try wearing a belt around the waist as this will make you appear thinner.

Pear Body Shape
Pear shaped women tend to have less of a bust but have extended waistline and sometimes weighty legs. These women should wear outfits that show off their shoulders in the form of strapless dresses and singlet tops. You want to avoid bringing attention to your behind area so try to avoid wearing tight fitting jeans. Wearing patterned tops with frills will draw the attention away from your waist and will bring it to your upper body.

Hourglass Body Shape
This particular body shape is one that women want. Women with this particular shape usually have a large bust and nipped in waist and hips which appear to look equal to the bust. Women with this body type usually display it by wearing tight fit jeans, pencil skirts, and well fitted trousers to show off their legs. A fitted dress will also show of their figure but don't show too much skin as this will draw unwanted attention.

Rectangle Body Shape
Women with this body shape generally have broad shoulders and an average size waist therefore a round neck shirt would give them more of a feminine appearance. Stay away from halter necks as that will draw the attention to your shoulders. Wearing darker colours would also give a much slimmer appearance.


If you're looking to change your style and get a new look for summer without the big price tag then check out the E5P website. You'll find a full range of ladies tops, dresses and shoes for just £5! So go online and grab yourself a bargain!

Top Ten Things We Love About Cheap Women’s Clothes


Over the years the word cheap has developed too many negative connotations and is used in too many different contexts to really be a solid definition of anything. Cheap women’s clothes for example are perceived as being made from low quality materials in unflattering shapes and poor fits. As all of us who shop at Everything5Pounds know though, this couldn't be further from the truth.

When it comes to ‘cheap’, they mean low cost. They put it in their name after all. In celebration of cheap women’s clothes, we’re going to take a quick look at the top ten reasons why we love them.

1# They are low cost, meaning we can buy more.

2# Fashion is becoming more and more disposable and trends change so fast it is tough to keep up. Thanks to the availability of cheap clothing we can always be on trend but not out of pocket.

3# It doesn't matter if we only wear something once.

4# You can mix and match cheap pieces with more expensive ones. No one will be able to tell.

5# We can indulge our love of shoes. A pair for every occasion? At £5 a pair you can.

6# You can create a whole outfit for £20.

7# There is no excuse not to look good. Cheap in price, high in quality means more clothes and more choice.

8# We can pick ourselves up when we are feeling blue without breaking the bank.

9# We can be adventurous.  Seen a style but not sure it’ll suit you, at £5 per item you can try it out. Be experimental.

10# They allow us to have the ability to express ourselves and have fun with fashion.

The list goes on and on but if you weren't a convert before I'm pretty sure this left will have left you reaching for your mouse.

Remember cheap doesn't always mean bad, think cheap is good for my wallet and my wardrobe.


Happy Shopping Ladies!

How To Choose Lingerie That Looks Sexy On You


So you've been planning a romantic evening with your loved one.... You've got food, wine, candles and music all organised but there’s just one more cheeky thing on your mind – what lingerie should you wear?! You want to add that special sparkle to your evening and made sure that as well as dressing to impress, you want to look just as good underneath. Whilst he might not know the different between different types of lingerie, he will definitely sense if you feel comfortable and confident.

So how do you choose the right lingerie set to flatter your figure and boost your confidence? We've decided to list a few different aspects you should consider when picking out the perfect set.

Colour
The right colour will enhance your natural beauty. You want to look happy and healthy so try not to pick colours that will wash you out. Some colours can be worn by everyone, for example a pastel pink set will definitely look cute and flirty no matter what your complexion is. If you're unsure what colour to choose then definitely go for black! You can't go wrong with a gorgeous lacy black set. My second suggested colour is red as it's always seen to be a very sexy colour. If you’re on a tight budget you can be sure that you can always find black cheap lingerie that's got that added touch of luxury.

Texture
Lace, satin, silk or mesh are always a good bet when picking out a cute lingerie set. If you're after a lingerie set that's comfortable, sexy and feminine then lace has it all! If you're after a luxury feel then definitely consider satin or silk! Silk tends to be more expensive as it's always associated with luxury lingerie but it will feel amazing against your body. A mesh baby doll or a chemise set will made you feel comfortable and certain sets will make you look cute and flirty.

Style
You want to choose a style that will enhance your best features yet hide your less favourite parts. Obviously when wearing lingerie you're completely exposed so picking one you feel comfortable in is a must! If you wish to cover up your tummy when choose a chemise or a baby doll set. For a bustier look that will also create the illusion of a slimmer waist then go for a corset.  However if you're feeling really confident and want to show off more flesh then try a classic bra and undies set!


No matter what you pick just make sure it's something you feel comfortable in! Men find confidence very sexy so take some time picking one that best suits you. If you're on a bit of a budget then you can find more cheap lingerie on the E5P website!

Character Clothing

There seems to be a big craze in American TV shows at the moment. Sure, TV from the States has always been popular, but shows such as Breaking Bad, Prison Break and The Walking Dead are all the rage at the moment. I've started to notice that a lot more people are wearing character T-Shirts. Just yesterday I was walking through my local supermarket and I saw somebody wearing a Game of Thrones tee (which looked awesome I might add).

I started looking around for men’s tops with characters on as I don’t actually have any. I'm quite into superheroes and old TV shows so I was quite open minded as to what I would find.

I stumbled across Everything5Pounds.com, a site which I know my girlfriend and sister use. I didn't realise that they did men’s clothing so it was a nice way to pass some time, scrolling through to see what they had on offer.

That’s when I found them, just what I was looking for! Men’s tops containing characters from old TV shows. I purchased a couple immediately, my favourite being the cartoon Mr T from the A Team’s animated face and a quote. I added the items to my basket and that’s when I realised how good value for money the website is.

I had bought 6 new men’s tops for just £30! Sure, I shop in places like Primark and Asda but I didn't even have to move to find these bad boys.

I'm just waiting for my parcel to arrive now! My girlfriend is so pleased that I bought something from Everything5Pounds as she is always raging on about how good value for money everything is. I always used to nod along to what she was saying but I really get it now!

She found the website by entering a give-away that her friend had shared on Facebook. She didn't win but that’s when she got hooked. I think it’s safe to say that there’s going to be a lot of parcels on our doorstep over the next few weeks and they’re not going to be just hers!

Summer Festival Fashion Style Guide


Summer is beginning and it's that exciting time of year for all your festival goers. Hopefully you've all purchased your tickets and you're starting to count down the days you can pitch your tend, sit back relax and enjoy the music.  It's a very exciting season but it's time you start planning what you need to take to your festival! Of course you need to think about the tent, food and drink but most importantly, your ultimate festival wardrobe! While you need to be a bit sensible and pack things which are practical and comfortable, festivals are well known for being able to show of your style and go mad for the weekend. 

For all those English festivals, as much as we would love sunshine all weekend it's inevitable that the rain will come down and create a lot of MUD! So what better footwear to have then a bright, vibrant pair of wellies! They're the ultimate festival fashion accessory and you'll definitely be lost without them. Who wants to get muddy feet anyway? You'll be much better of protecting your feet and you can even play around in the mud puddles without worrying about ruining your shoes.


As for clothing you don't want to take your favourite outfits to a festival with you as you don't always bring home what you take. A great item of clothing are leggings as although it can be warm during the day it can often become pretty chilly in the evening. The next item of clothing are your typical denim shorts matched with a pair of knee high socks! They're a bit of fun to wear and it's probably one of the only times you can go around with stripy legs all day!


Now what's the one accessory you always see at festivals? If you haven't guessed it then it's the famous flower hair bands! For some reason they appear to be the must have thing to wear at a festival. You can find them at any festival and are great for keeping your hair of your face for when you're dancing amongst thousands of people in a huge crowd. Festivals are always a great excuse to try out that hippy look you know you've been dying to try. Another great thing for festivals are those brightly coloured flowery fashion bags, you should check out the full range of fashion bags on the E5P website because a bag will only cost you £5 and you won't be worried about it getting ruined or muddy.


One last thing that’s an absolute MUST HAVE for English festivals are of course a waterproof mac! You find that they come in a huge choice of colours so pick one that’s bright and that makes you stand out from the crowd! You don't want to be soggy and wet all weekend (hopefully it will be sunny but we can't order in good weather) so a waterproof mac is a very important item for all festival goers! Have fun and remember it’s a weekend to go wild!

Big Summer Styles! The Return of the Crop Top


 Tops From E5P

This season you might have noticed that the crop top is making a massive mark in the fashion industry, so we’re asking what do you think about it?

We’ll if you’re anything like us then you’ll probably have some queries about it. Why is something that dominated the 1990s now big on the fashion agenda? Before you go into panic mode over showing a bit of belly, you’ll see that when this new look is worn correctly the majority of us will definitely be able to pull it off.

The trick when wearing a crop top is to match it up to a classic high-waisted skirt or a pair of high-waisted trousers. When a crop top is worn correctly it can be sexy and quite flattering. I've seen many girls wearing a crop top with midi length high-waisted skirts, which are perfect for a night out.

Pulling off a new trend will always wear better on you when you wear it with confidence, so before buying yourself a crop top just try it on with skirts, shorts and trousers to see what you feel most comfortable in. If you find yourself asking if it’s appropriate for your age or if you’re not sure it’s flattering for your figure then it’s probably best you leave it as you don’t want to be unsure and feel uncomfortable when you come to wear it out.

Revealing skin can look sexy but you must always remember this very important fashion rule: Less is more! You need to keep your cleavage display to a minimum and only expose a small strip of your stomach, if you show too much then it might draw unwanted attention to you.

If you’re happy enough to go out rocking the crop top then make sure you’re covering up the rest of you. Avoid miniskirts and hipster shorts/trousers to maintain a tasteful style. Maxi skirts are great additions to crop tops because they help to balance out your look.

Even if you’re still unsure about trying out this new style it’s important to remember that the trend has come a long way from its late 1990s Spice Girls days! The Summer 2014 crop top style doesn't expose your whole stomach as it’s a much more mature and comfortable style.

If you’re after a bit of a retail fix then check out the complete range of cheap tops on the E5P website! We’re currently stocking the crop top so you can experiment with this new style for a small price!

Tips for Choosing the Right Skirt

Women’s skirts come in all sorts of shapes, styles and sizes so choosing the right one can be difficult! What with the fashion industry becoming much more diverse you’ll find that skirts that range from petite to plus size.

Whether you’re going to work or just meeting some friends for lunch, you can’t go wrong by wearing a skirt. Where skirts come in all sorts of styles you will always be able to find a skirt to match the occasion. If you need to find the right skirt for a specific occasion but not sure which style you need then here are a few of my recommendations.

 
The Office Look
If you need to dress to impress and look smart when at work then I would definitely recommend a pencil skirt. This style of skirt should be matched up with a smart shirt and accessorised with a smart handbag and a smart jacket such as a blazer. Most professional women would say that a pencil skirt is an essential part of their work wear wardrobe.



Sexy, Fun and Flirty
If you’re going out for the evening and want to get noticed then I would recommend high waisted short skirts. They come in many different styles and patterns and are definitely a top trend for this year. The best way to wear this specific style of skirt is if you match it up with a crop top or a long shirt that’s tucked in. Match it up with accessories and a clutch bag and you’ll be ready to party in no time.



The Sweet Casual Look
This year you should invest some money into buying a maxi skirt. They come in a huge array of colours and can be worn anywhere. You can dress them down with a pair of flip-flops, a big hat and big sunglasses for when you’re going down the beach or grabbing some lunch with friends in the sun. You can also dress them up by wearing them with a pretty top and a pair of heels for that more sophisticated look. If you buy just a plain black maxi skirt you’ll find you can wear it with pretty much anything.




Sexy and Classy
Another style of skirt that’s very popular amongst women is the long maxi skirt with a slit down the leg. These skirts are sexy and stylish and are a great way to show of your legs. This particular style of women’s skirt works best with a pair of heels and a clutch bag.



If you’re still stuck on which skirt to buy then check out our range of women's skirts on the Everything5Pounds website. They will only cost you just £5 so you can pick out a new outfit without breaking the bank!

Maxi Dress
Spring is just around the corner and a maxi dress should definitely be at the top of everyone’s must have list. Maxi dresses are flattering, light and are very comfortable. If you want to create that beachy look try to remember your glamorous oversized sunnies and a big floppy hat to keep the sun out of your face.





High Waisted Shorts 
If you haven’t done it already then get yourself a pair of High-Waisted shorts. This gorgeous orange pair will definitely get you in the mood for the next few Summer months! You’ll stand out from the crowd and will definitely look the part.

A denim jacket is pretty much one of the top essentials you need to have in your wardrobe. They will match any outfit and are always a little bit dressier than wearing a knitted cardigan.

Boots For All Occasions

First off, I just want to get something straight – I am a self-confessed shoe addict! I don’t know what it is but I can’t walk past a shop without wondering if they have new footwear in. It’s kind of like a hobby for me, collecting different styles and colours. My mum tends to get quite annoyed because my room is just absolutely covered, although she doesn't complain when she needs some nice heels to wear out to an office party!

At the moment, whether it’s the colder months I'm not sure, I've been collecting boots. I scour all corners of the World Wide Web looking for different styles I haven’t seen before.
In this blog post, I'm going to be taking you on a journey through the wonderful world of boots and which situations you can wear them in.

Ankle Boots
Velvet looking ankle boots are my favourite type of footwear at the moment, so I had to kick off my list by mentioning them. They look great with most items of clothing, but for me it’s all about rocking the skinny jean/nice boots look. I tend to wear this style around college and out on shopping trips with the girls.












Knee High
The pinnacle of the ladies boots department has to be the knee high style. I tend to wear these with leggings or a skirt. They always look a bit daunting but I find knee high boots to be one of the most comfy of shoes to wear. It’s just annoying as my mum is always going through my knee high collection to find some to wear to work. I really wish I wasn't the same size as her sometimes!


















UGG Boots
UGG boots and similar looking styles are really comfy and perfect for the winter months as the sheep skin lining keeps your feet and legs snuggled. They’re perfect to wear with jeans but ladies be warned, I ruined my first pair by wearing them out whilst it was raining.


















Wellies
There’s no better childhood past time then jumping around and splashing in the puddles. I still love it to this day and look forward to going out wearing my wellies when it’s raining. Okay, they’re not a ladies boot as such but I can’t imagine a man walking down the street wearing my pink jelly bean ones!



















Ladies boots really are the king when it comes to shopping for footwear, that’s not to say that you need to spend a fortune when buying though. Everything5pounds.com add new boots all the time and as the domain name suggests, they’re not going to cost you a bomb.


Happy shopping!
