what I've been loving lately: ombre.

ombre. ombre. ombre.
that's all that's been going through my head these past few weeks. I'm obsessed to say the absolute least.
I just love how it looks; it can make any two (or more) colors look good with each other as they effortlessly fade into one another. it's a gorgeous, classic look.

ombre saw the red carpet at the 2011 Screen Actors Guild Awards, when Julia Stiles wore a very elegant black to white ombre dress. (to the right)











we've also seen ombre all over the runway. (to the left)

here's what I've purchased lately to satisfy my obsession:







from tobi.com
$68













High Low Dip Dye Top in 'canyon coral'
from Lucky Brand
$50











these are literally my favorite shoes I've ever owned!
LC Lauren Conrad Platform Wedge Sandals
from Kohls
originally $70, but I got mine on sale for $40 (such a steal)






and lets not forget about the hair I had a few months back.... blue ombre tips.
my friend Cara Sinicropi actually did it herself; please make sure to check out her wonderful blog: vagabondias.com




 






As far as ombre hair goes, that has been huuuge lately. My favorite ombre hair is my idol Lauren Conrad (on left). Some other favorites are Isabel Lucas (left below) and Miley Cyrus (right below).














I've been looking online for some more affordable ombre options if any of you share my love for this look; here's some that I have found:

from Forever 21:

Ombre Trapeze Tank $20 and Ombre Layered Maxi Skirt $28







Fade Into Me Ombre Top
$34
from shopdailychic.com
this is for the edgier girl, the top has really cool shredded detailing on the back!







Gimme a Tint Top
$40
from modcloth.com
