Trend Watch – Ombre
Apr 25th, 2008 | By Irie Diva | Category: Trend Watch
Ombre is a French term meaning "shaded" and belongs to the tiedye family of the hippy sixties era. It’s also referred to as bleeding since the colour fades out from dark to light [or vice versa] or from one colour to the next. Its been popping up on fashion runways since the fall season last year and has made its way to everyday looks. I admit, I saw this trend late last year and I wasn’t too happy at forecasting it as a trend to watch as I’m not too sold on it myself. You can take a look and be the judge. Me, if I rock this trend I’ll stick to the shoes and the bags TYVM! (Ok, that orange-to-yellow Diane Von Furstenberg dress is way cute)
Sammy’s Shoes Store in Premiere Plaza, Constant Spring Road [Kgn, Jamaica] is up on this trend with some cute ombre shoes! Whether flats for everyday fab or some stilettos for a night on the town, these shoes will make your LBD pop and keep you on trend. Check out what I found there:
Here’s the uber-fab Tyra Banks rocking a chic laid back get up with an ombre bag.
