Check out my picks for ombre, one of my favourite spring trends. Adumbrated colour, blocked or shadowed, to create a faded -- and fabulous! -- effect.

Echo Design | Ombre Linen Wrap

First to recommend

Description

Summer scarves shouldn't be heavy or woolen, so a linen wrap is an obvious seasonal choice.

I love this wrap from Echo Design, especially because it's colour-blocked chartreuse, cascading ombre, --

absolutely beautiful.

This lightweight ombre wrap is effortless to wear. Wrap it around your neck once or twice, or loop it around your favourite bag, and you'll make a serious style statement.

Juicy Couture | Ombre Ribbon Floppy Hat

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

I think hot pink is a super colour choice for summer, especially when it's hot pink ombré

This Juicy Couture floppy hat is exactly what I'd wear to protect my fair skin from dangerous UVA and UVB rays. Check out the hat's tonal topstitching, the ribbon tied around the brim with adorable "Juicy Couture" embroidery, and the ruffled-trim brim.

Available in black, white, and teal green -- how sweet is this hat?

Jay Godfrey Tuxedo-Ruffle Ombre Dress

2 people recommended this item

Description

OK, first, he's from Toronto -- HELLO?! Canadian!

Second, his designs are classic and innovative, and he's not afraid to take risk.

I am hearting Jay Godfrey's hot pink and black ombré tuxedo-ruffled dress. Sleeveless with a jewel neckline, this dress is colour-blocked to complement your figure (bright on top, dark on bottom).

And made from a silk/Lycra blend, it's the perfect answer for hot summer nights.

Alexis Hudson Inc. | Venus clutch

First to recommend

Description

Hot and haute, Alexis Hudson's bags are instant classics and great quality.

Although it's not available in poppy -- as shown -- I think the bright coloured leather done in ombre is exceptional.

This clutch is an accessory that speaks volumes without being obnoxious.

Prices vary from $350-475.

EXPRESS | Dip-dyed skirt

First to recommend

Description

One thing about trends is that women who catch them before they get popular PAY for it. Literally.

I love how EXPRESS Clothing makes up-and-coming trends available for less. This ombre skirt retails for $69.95.

Adorable A-line, with flattering pleats and a thick waistband, this skirt is a worthy buy.

It's available in this hot pink colour (as shown) and also a brilliant teal. It comes in sizes 0-12, is hemmed right above the knee, and would look great day or night.

Prada | black ombre leather pumps

First to recommend

Description

The heel is a bit too short for my liking, but at 2½ inches it is practical.

These Prada leather shoes, done in darling black ombre, feature a soft squared toe and so much style.

I'd pair them with tights or bare legs -- they're the perfect summer shoe!

BCBG Max Azria | Ombre Stripe Sweater

First to recommend

Description

This BCBG Max Azria ombre striped sweater is just as breezy as it looks.

A sweet alternative to a t-shirt for summer, I love the boat neck, the blouson sleeves, and the long length (hitting below the hip, it's very figure-friendly.)

Another great thing about this sweater is that it looks good on all skin-tones -- whether dark and tanned or alabaster and fair.

Prada | Ombré calfskin boston bag

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Pricey, yes, but can you really put a price on perfection?

Retailing for almost $1800 -- and that's Bluefly-discounted -- this ombré calfskin bag is the quintessential carry-all.

I love the versatile shoulder-strap versus leather handle option, as well as the regal slate colouring.

TFNC | Tfnc Silk Ombre Sleeveless Shirt at ASOS

First to recommend

Description

A fresh alternative to a full-out dress or skirt, this sleeveless shirt can be worn during day, and even made to look professional under a tuxedo blazer or cardi.

A multi-coloured mix ombre -- black, white, orange, pink, red -- this silk top features a feminine ruffled front.

Since it's see-through, you can get daring my pairing a lovely La Perla bra or beach-friendly bikini top underneath.

Victoria's Secret | Ombré sliding triangle bikini

First to recommend

Description

Beach bunnies, beware!

Classic through and through, this Victoria's Secret triangle bikini is a best-seller every year. And now that it's being done in ombre, my guess is that they'll sell out.

With their famous wireless, natural silhouette, VS has created a blue, black, tourquoise, and golden ombre colouring that is completely alluring.

The bikini top ties at the neck and back, and the bottoms tie at each hip. The top features removable lining, and the suit covers moderately (for those who don't dare to bare).

Each piece retails for $38, which in my opinion, for ombre, is a steal.
