What do you do... if you find something 'deeply discounted' but... it's just not your color?

 Like this?  Orange-y red color.  I don't like orange (not that there's not anything wrong with it) and I don't look good in orange... not even a nice 'orange-y red' like this sweater.  However look at that brand name!  It's 100% linen too.  

So, what's a gal to do?  Well, I decided to buy some 'Rit Dye' and dye that sweater to a more pleasing color.  *The sweater is still sort of wet in this photo.   What color do you think that I used to get this nice raisin brownish color?  

Purple!    So, don't pass up those wonderful 'deeply discounted' purchases... just because you don't like the color.
