"In the spring, our fashion clairvoyance told us that yellow was about to be all over the place. Then fall arrived, and the New York runways confirmed our hunch, with lemongrass dresses at Brian Reyes and deep goldenrod frocks at Zac Posen. And now, the trend had trickled down to the red carpet, where we&amp;#x27;re taking today&amp;#x27;s lesson in dressing from a few bold A-listers... Lesson #1: Choose a complimentary shade. Anne Hathaway has that stunning alabaster skin I&amp;#x27;ve always been really jealous of--but it also means she can tend to look kinda transparent and washed out if she picks the wrong colors. A light, lemony yellow would look too close to her own skin tone and have a dulling effect, but the deep school-bus-yellow hue of her Lela Rose dress brings out her warmth and really makes her shine.

(Worth noting: both she and Hathaway are Rachel Zoe clients...has my favorite catchphrase queen been reading STF!?). Moore went with simple black pumps and a black clutch and very minimal jewelry, letting the bold hue do all of the talking. Cluttering this look up with too many accessories would no doubt have been distracting, and here we&amp;#x27;re left to focus only on the radiant glow that shade of maize creates. Lesson #3: Make sure it flatters your figure. As the ever-wise Tim Gunn preaches, fit it the number one rule of dressing. An ill-fitted sack or a dress that&amp;#x27;s too snug is offensive enough on its own, but when it&amp;#x27;s in a traffic-stopping color like yellow, it&amp;#x27;s virtually unforgivable. Jennifer Love Hewitt&amp;#x27;s flowing chiffon gown from the Emmy Awards may not have made our Best Dressed list, but she still scores major style points for playing up her slim waist and fabulous cleavage and letting a flowing skirt balance out the revealing bits up top. So tell me ladies...whose take on yellow do you like best? Have any of these convinced you to finally try out this hot trend? Or have you already jumped on the yellow bandwagon ages ago?
