2009 Cannes Film Festival: Evangeline Lily
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.
Fab Finger Discount: Indah Mosaic Minidress
I just bought a pair of suede coral sandals, and they're just waiting for me to pair them with an awesome frock. Such a jovial color needs an equally fine friend, so I'm thinking about putting them together with this Indah Mosaic Minidress ($35, originally $170). Hey, any excuse to go shopping, right?
The Look For Less: Foley + Corinna Ombre Fringe Top
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.
Last Chance to Play Dress-Up With ShopStyle and Shopbop
I hope you've been playing dress-up with ShopStyle and Shopbop for the past five weeks. If not, now is your last chance to enter to win either a $500 or $1,000 Shopbop gift card.
This final week's inspiration is ombré, like this Larsen Gray Pleated Top ($238).
Found! Jenny McCarthy's Blue Ombre Maxi Dress
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.
Look of the Day: Oy for Ombre!
cosmic flash told herself she wasn't going to participate in this trend but pictures tell otherwise. She broke down and went oy for ombre! The bow in front adds a different twist to her dress and I love the yellow bag.
Bag to Have: Tallie Tote Bag
Christina Aguilera was out last week eating sushi showing off her latest accessory, a patent ombre Alexander McQueen handbag! Her designer bag will set you back roughly £1200 but you can steal her style with a Tallie Tote Bag by Marks and Spencer. Before you turn up your nose at the brand, check out this bargain accessory which costs just £25 (below)!
Look of the Day: Ombre-tastic!
What should Jordybee do? Should she keep her ombre-tastic skirt or not? Full skirts are on the horizon for Spring so I say keep it.
Nice and New: Tord Boontje's Ombré Midsummer Light
By now, you must have seen Tord Boontje's Midsummer Light, yes? I think I can safely say that it, along with several of his other designs, was partially responsible for the laser-cut lace trend that's been going on lately. But Boontje isn't just a trend-setter; he follows the trends as well.
