Brunettes -- Make a Beeline for Marigold and Mustard

It seems like every fashion-savvy brunette is trying out this sunny-but-sophisticated shade. We love how Marisa Tomei’s marigold Marios Schwab gown perfectly plays off the highlights in her hair.

As she moves from teen sensation to grownup style star, Vanessa Hudgens has been choosing more Old-Hollywood silhouettes on the red carpet. And this marigold confection from Maria Lucia Hohan does as much for her coloring as it does for her image.

Maria Menounos’s sequined Blumarine dress matches her sunny personality -- and brings out the dimension in her trademark brown tresses.

A simple sheath like Maggie Q's demonstrates how to rock the golden color without going overboard.
