This [playful t-shirt](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valentine-collection) by Stay Cute tells everyone where they can plant their kisses (hint: it's not on your lips).

For some reason, when you're single on Valentine's Day, coupled-up people feel the need to impart words of wisdom, such as "I'm sure Mr. Right is just around the corner" or "Have you tried online dating?" If you've spent one Valentine's Day too many listening to your friends' unsolicited advice, then it may be time to don this shirt.

So if you're [single and loving it](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinder-x-ian-charms), tell everyone to "kiss your butt" this Valentine's Day. You're fabulous all on your own, thank you very much! The sweet [candy-hearts print](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweethearts-valentines-2025) softens the message on this tee, making it absolutely adorable (and appropriate) for Valentine's Day.
