Omiru Poll Results: The Color Green is IN!

Omiru Poll Result: Green is IN!


Tahari Natalia DressWe asked: Is The Color Green In or Out?

You said:  We heart Green!  79% are all over the emerald color. Only 12% and 9%, respectively, believe they’re On the Way
Out and Out.


Omiru’s take:
Wear green for its festive flair or for its inherent wearability.   Those with lighter, fairer skin tones should steer towards deeper, saturated shades.  Bright, vibrant shades of green perfectly complement darker skin tones.

Next Question: Jennifer Lopez is often spotted in her signature Leopard Prints.  But what do you think?  Tell us, is Leopard Print In, or is it Out?  Cast your
vote on the sidebar!

Omiru Poll Results: Velvet Jackets are In

Omiru Poll Result: Velvet Jackets are In


Theory Bobby Adore Velvet BlazerWe asked: Are Velvet Jackets In or Out?

You said:  Pull one on for the holiday party.  58% are all over Velvet Jackets. 18% and 26%, respectively, believe they’re On the Way
Out and Out.


Omiru’s take:
Velvet Jackets are an easy way to take your look from standard to snappy.  We’re fans of the tuxedo look in particular–updated for this season with a cropped sleeve and snug fit (pictured).  Wear your Velvet blazer with tuxedo pants, trousers…or even denim.

Next Question: Green is a classic holiday color…and perhaps the Next Big Thing.  Tell us, is The Color Green In, or is it Out?  Cast your
vote on the sidebar!

Omiru Poll Results: Shirtdresses are In!

Omiru Poll Result: Shirtdresses are In!


Nili Lotan Shirt DressWe asked: Are Shirtdresses In or Out?

You said:  It’s time to shop for shirtdresses.  68% are all over these versatile dresses, and only 12% and 19%, respectively, believe they’re On the Way Out and Out.

Omiru’s take:
The perfect workdress, Shirtdresses manage to straddle the line between professional and figure flattering. Not too casual, but not too fussy, Shirtdresses travel effortlessly from the boardroom to cocktails at the local bar. We’re stocking up on both short and long sleeve styles (such as the attention-grabbing mod dress pictured at left) to take us through Winter and Spring! 

Next Question: As party season approaches, we’re taking another look at the Velvet Jacket.  Tell us, are Velvet Jackets In, or
are they Out?  Cast your
