 I bought this tshirt probably about 10 years ago at Crossroads Trading Co. in Capitol Hill, Seattle...It was about $4.00. It was orginally a more cream color, but it recently got some blue paint or ink that wouldn't come off. I still wore it because it is my all time favorite tshirt ever. I think the brand is Diesel, but I don't want to 100% commit to this for fear I may be wrong. I love tshirts, love, love, love...but it seems I am always getting disappointed with some aspect of them when I buy them. Too long, too cropped, too boxy, too tight...And I will be honest. I have spent everywhere from a dolla or 2 to upwards of $60 for a tshirt. I am a poor girl, so $60 for a tshirt, I blame it on after baby hormones. And I rarely ever wear that expensive to me tshirt. I honestly think my favorites are like this one. From a thrift store. I feel like older tshirts were made better quality, better fit, and last way longer than anything I buy today.
I was doing a batch of tie-dye and had a little blue dye left. I didn't want to waste for fear my hippy husband may attack. I remembered my winsome shirt and decided to just put it into a ziploc and add the rest of the blue dye and see what transpired.
 
So happy with the result. No more blue stains, and a cool color effect. Thank you Tulip Dye. Another notch of the belt of my beginning Domestic Diva Training. I will sport this shirt in a outfit post this week.
