American Idol Style

Last season on American Idol, the most striking fashion statement for me was not from J.Lo or Stephen Tyler. It was this guy:
Some cowboy guy in Hollywood week. He was a pretty big jerk and went home.

But can you see his shirt? It's plaid that's been tie-dyed!! I've been swooning for months.


Finally, I had some leftover dye and a nice-fitting plaid shirt, so I took the plunge!

Mine came out a lot more pale and less allover blotchy than his (the bad photo quality doesn't help-- it's actually darker in real life), but I love how it took a nice preppy shirt and made it a little surprising. Hurrah for tie dye!
