We asked: Are Hairbands In or Out?
You said: We heart hairbands! A whopping 75% majority is sweet on this celeb favorite.
Omiru’s take: For party or for play, hairbands are a chic alternative to the standard ponytail (yawn). For a fresh-faced, girl-next-door look, dress up a sweater-and-jeans combo, or add some sparkle to a cocktail dress with a hairband. Just choose a hairband that complements not only your hair color but also your outfit. Our favorite pairings? For blondes, we like turquoise. Brunettes, a pale robin’s egg blue. For redheads, a deep green. And for black hair, choose a bright jewel tone, such as emerald.
Next Question: Speaking of jewel colors, they’ve been popping up on the runways and in store windows across the country. Bright yellow, in particular, has been getting a lot of attention (especially when paired with black and white…yum). But what do You think? Tell us, is Bright Yellow

We asked: Are Bows on Dresses In or Out?
You said: Yes to Bows; a 55% majority are all over Bows on Dresses.
Omiru’s take: For a thoroughly modern and completely ladylike look, you can’t go wrong with a bow adorned dress. Our advice? Choose a dress with a bow appropriately sized for your body type. If you’re petite, for example, opt for a small sized bow.
