Visited a clothing exchange the other day and this yarn-dyed 100% cotton ombre shirt called to me. It's what I'd call light red at the top, down to white, has red stitching at the seams, and the entire ombre is done with different colored threads woven in, rather than by dying the fabric after manufacture.

But it felt a little weird to wear pink as a tomboy.

Then I did it again, wearing all white with my olive utility jacket.

#3 finally has a dark color (and it's very much a repeat).

Is the top in #1 a keeper? I don't have many woven tops for summer, and this one, since it's a man's shirt, seems like it could be tomboy-ish in spite of the color. But I'm not really sure the color does me any favors, and is the shape too blah?
