MUCHAS GRACIAS, OMBRE!

Did you guys know that ombre is a card game for 3 players using a deck of cards minus the 8s, 9s, and 10s that was popular in Spain during the 18th century and immortalized by Alexander Pope in his epoic poem The Rape of the Lock? Neither did we until about 5 minutes ago. But we did know that ombre is also a word that is used for the technique of using varying gradations of color in fabric, either covering the entire spectrum of one color family or to transition from one color to another. Par Example: this absolutely divine Herve Leger dress, which when worn, absolutely becomes a fun game for at least two . . . We're just saying.
*Herve Leger ombre dress. In a size medium. Priced at $750.
