Lilac jeans

Very pale lilac. Fairly slim fitting. How can I style these? Not worried about being fashionable, just want them to work with what I have - a lot of white and navy.

With a classic white shirt?

Oversized white and dove grey vertical striped shirt?
Black tee?
White tee?

Cannot think which shoes to wear with these.

I think I'd do a white shirt and then white trainers, possibly? Or ballet flats.

Grey t shirt and white trainers

Thank you. I tried them again and they are going to be easy to wear with things I already own in grey and white. The lilac is very pale and slightly dusky.

When I checked the shade on a colour wheel it looks like the pair is yellow/green and I could not imagine wearing them this way.

They sound gorgeous and unusual. Lilac would work well with navy or white, and also with primrose yellow, mint or sage green or a rich cornflower or lapiz blue. Could also work with a warm cream.

Personally I wouldn't pair lilac and grey as they bleach each other out and could end up looking like colours that ran in the wash.
