Kristen Wiig Inspires Ombré Home Décor Love

Diana Nguyen — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 05:00:43 PDT

The 2011 Emmys may be over, but one winner still resonates in my mind: Kristen Wiig's Zac Posen gown. The gradual brown shades brought a mature and luxe look to the SNL funny lady, leaving me inspired to add some sultry ombré décor to my casa.

Much as Kristen keeps her jewelry minimal, let ombré's rich effects serve as the focal point in your home, like with the Vera Wang Bedding Dip Dye Dot Collection ($90-$300 each). The simple design is fresh yet showstopping; plus, even the polka-dot Decorative Pillows ($90) are ombré-ized!

Don't want to commit to the color gradient trend? The West Elm Dip Dye Throw ($39) and Vintage Silver Ombre Glasses ($22) are sophisticated and expensive-looking accents at an affordable price. When budget is not an issue, amp up those layers and add texture with the Horchow Ombre Hide Rug ($699). In fact, don't be afraid to try ombré in all different fabrics; the velvet Adelphi Lounge Chair (price upon request) provides comfort and style in the most subtle way and is perfect for some cozy Fall lounging.

Feeling Blue? Try Lauren Conrad's Trendy Ombré Manicure

Jaime Richards — Wed, 20 Jul 2011 11:23:00 PDT

She's tried the ombré highlights look before and she's even gotten in on the multicolored hair extensions action, so it makes sense that Lauren Conrad would figure out a way to incorporate the two trends into her beauty look. At an HTC Status event last night in LA, Lauren walked the red carpet sporting a chic, fun ombré nail polish technique that perfectly complemented her streaked-with-baby-blue strands. To re-create her style, simply paint your pinky the darkest color, applying a polish in a gradually lighter tone for each of the subsequent nails. Shop the widget below for inspiration.

2009 Cannes Film Festival: Evangeline Lily

FabSugar — Tue, 19 May 2009 04:50:22 PDT

You loved Rachel Weisz in emerald green dip-dyed Valentino; how about Evangeline Lily in a turquoise version? At the Looking For Eric premiere, "Freckles" and new L'Oréal lady opted for a cool crisscross bodice and high slit, but it's the bright-to-dark turquoise hue I adore. With the high neck, pulling her hair back in a slick pony was totally a good call. Thoughts?

The Look For Less: Foley + Corinna Ombre Fringe Top

FabSugar — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 08:00:22 PST

Sometimes you crave simplicity, and other times, you look to your top to serve as the standout piece in your ensemble. This Foley + Corinna Ombre Fringe Top ($394) does the latter. I love that the fringe is flashy but not over-the-top. But, in this economy, who wants to dish out $400 for a top? Not I.

To see the look for less,

read more. I'm so happy I stumbled upon this Shimmy Fringe Tank Top ($30). Now that price is more like it. The tank still has the ombre fringe element, but these fringes are layered and shorter. No matter, it can still take center stage in your outfit. Black stovepipes, funky booties, and you're good to rock 'n go.

Found! Jenny McCarthy's Blue Ombre Maxi Dress

FabSugar — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 10:00:22 PDT

Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey enjoyed time on the beach on the 4th of July, and while Jim looked pretty good in his woman's bathing suit, she was hotter in her Scoop Beach Smocked Dress ($365). It comes with a rope belt but Jenny opted to remove it for the beach. Unlike many other ombre maxis, this one is silk so it's wearable in dressy situations. I told you dip-dyed maxis were all the rage.
