February 4, 2012 TREND ALERT!: The Ombre Invasion
If you’re a fellow color lover like myself, sometimes it is an ordeal to commit to just one tone in a spectrum. I love cool blues. Navy all the way to turquoise and teal are all favorites of mine. Hallelujah there is now a hot decor trend busting out all over that allows you to enjoy all of them in one seriously chic and dramatic statement. Ladies and Gentlemen, today we are putting the HDB spotlight on all things Ombre. The gradation of any color family can bring a very modern glamour to a space that also feels unique and exciting. Much like most of our trend alerts, Ombre is not for those who are scared. But, when used the right way this look is drama for days in your home.
