It’s turned chilly so thought I would try the flared skirt and sweatshirt formula. This is the skirt I dyed from beige to gray — it has ruching but also flares the bottom. A new look for me but very comfortable with a graphic tee underneath for when it warms up today. Opinions and tweaks welcome.

Fantastic job Lana! Love how it turned out! Is your skirt 100% cotton? Did you use washing machine? Presume RIT…which shade?
To die for with the lilac top! -
Lana replied 2 years ago
Merwoman yep 100% cotton. I dyed it in the washing machine with pearl gray Rit dye. Of course the threads did not change color but I expected that.
Thanks everyone!

Great outfit, and great job on the skirt! Makes me wonder if I could dye a pair of pale lilac jeans to a colour that would be more versatile for me...

Pretty color combo! Actually the skirt looks olive to me.

Suntiger, it is a cool gray with a green undertone. Must be the original beige coming through.

Carol, I have a pair of lilac jeans I never wear as well! I don’t think I’m a colored jeans person.

i don't know if I am or not, but the pale lilac is a bit of an orphan in my closet. I do have quite a bit of white I can pair them with this spring, but I think I would get more use and happiness out of a bright or mid tone colour than a light pastel.

The skirt and bag both look olive on my monitor but are still fab with lilac. Olive goes with about anything. I love your choice of graphic tee.
