You’ve got it Fashionistas/os. The ombré trend has made its way from clothing to hair and back again, and you know what? It’s still as fashionable as ever. This free flowing style embodies all of the whimsical and lightness of spring, and its waterfall-like color palette makes it a great piece for the start of summer, too. The color scheme of ombré can be used on any piece of clothing—dresses, skirts, blouses, T-shirts or tank tops. Not only is the style of ombré a simple and eye-catching design, but it also goes with a major trend swarming the fashion streets this spring: the lack of structure. Anything loose that lets the shape of the body become almost nonexistent has been popping up in numerous spring/summer fashion shows, and it’s never been a better time to incorporate two trends into one outfit!
I spotted this Fashionista wearing her deep mauve ombré top while walking through a snowy campus. The high-low cut of her shirt keeps things casual and parallels perfectly with the idea of a structure free style. The darkness of the mauve plays well with the winter season still circling around here in Chicago, but the lighter ends remind all who see this blouse that spring is just around the corner! Her black jeans really accentuated the flowy cut of this top, and her zippered boots make trekking through mounds of snow a breeze. This Fashionista’s dainty rose gold jewelry gives off a vibe of freshness, and her loose curls correlate well with her relaxed and fluid outfit.
How To: Take a trip to any store and search for some ombré pieces! Anything that has a fading color pattern is ideal to pull of this trend, and remember to keep things light and flowing!
