We asked: Is Bright Yellow In or Out?
You said: Long live Bright Yellow! A significant 70% majority is all over the cheery color.
Omiru’s take: We’re sweet on Bright Yellow to cheer up an otherwise humdrum outfit. Got a pair of grey slacks and a white button-down for work? Add a Bright Yellow sweater or overcoat to the mix. Even if you’re not into bold colors, you can still add spark to your wardrobe with Bright Yellow accessories. Try out Bright Yellow with a cute handbag, a pair of shoes, a brooch, or even a ring.
Next Question: We’ve noticed Charm Bracelets rising up the trend ladder, probably for their inherent versatility. But what do You think? Tell us, are Charm Bracelets

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
In, or is it Out? Cast your vote on the sidebar!
