You know and all probably wear neon by now. These bold colors cleverly used will make a statement and more importantly will make you feel positive.

Here are our tips & favs of this Spring.

Step #1
If you are one of those girls who are not so used to wearing such strong colors you can try with a single detail - nailpolish or statement jewelry/small accessory as belt are a good start when experimenting neon for the first time.

Poof Braid to Bun

This style is fun easy and perfect for Gymnastics

I started by pulling up her bangs in the front and making a poof.

Then I took a small straight section of hair along the poof line and make a simple braid.

Then all the hair got pulled into a low ponytail.

Now make a bun with the hair in the ponytail.

Bridal Hair by... Nicki Minaj?

OK, this is mostly for fun. But I'd love to know what you think about it. I actually found the following image on Tumblr, where it was suggested as a bridal hairstyle.

Yes, that's Nicki Minaj - styled innocently in a white dress and wavy hair. Personally, I'm on the fence about her hairstyle but I LURVE her makeup!

Met Costume Gala 2012

The Metropolitan Costume Institute Gala is best known as the biggest night of the year when it comes to fashion. Every year impressive number of celebrities show off their well toned bodies in luxurious gowns. You probably remember Blake Lively's gray Chanel dress or Miranda Kerr's Marchesa swan gown which brought them to the top of "The Best Dressed" lists of 2011.
Now it's time to find some icons of style for 2012: We bring you the pictures and you decide who was 'a hit' and who was 'a miss' of this year's Met Gala evening.

Beyonce in Givenchy

Queen B was a showstopper in a sheer black-purple Givenchy gown, while Leighton Meester, a girl famous for her role in a teenage hit "Gossip Girl", stunned every present person in a beautiful gold Marchesa dress. She completed the look with some Harry Winston jewelry and just a touch of suntan.

Leighton Meester

Our favorites were also Hilary Swank & Jessica Alba, both in Michael Kors, Sofia Vergara in a dress by Marchesa, Camilla Belle in Ralph Lauren and Ashley Greene who opted for a white gown designed by Donna Karan.

Dianna Agron, Julianne Hough, Emily Blunt, LaLa Anthony, Kristen Bell, January Jones and Beyonce's little sis Solange Knowles decided to follow current biggest trends, so they chose breathtaking designer gowns in vibrant colors. Coco Rocha even chose a color-blocking combo and officially made herself a fashion IT girl.

Emily Blunt in a coral gown by Calvin Klein

LaLa Anthony in Zac Posen

Kristen Bell in Tommy Hilfiger

Solange Knowles in Rachel Roy

January Jones in Versace

Coco Rocha in vintage Givenchy

Most invitees decided to go for Prada as a symbol of imperishability, impeccable style and luxury. Even The Devil herself, Anna Vintour, opted for a white gown designed by this Italian fashion house.

Kate Bosworth

Linda Evangelista

Diane Kruger

Gwyneth Paltrow

Jessica Biel

Eva Mendes

Sequins trend shows no sign of abating which was proven by some of the most influential women in show business: Cameron Diaz, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Gisele Bundchen, Nina Dobrev and many more dazzled on the red carpet in sequin covered gowns.

Kate Upton in Michael Kors

Karolina Kurkova was one of the bravest celebs in her Rachel Zoe gown

Rihanna was one of the best dressed celebs this evening according to fashion experts. She stayed true to her style and chose a black leather dress by Tom Ford. Rooney Mara was no surprise in a black lace dress opposed to her porcelain complexion. It seems like Sarah Jessica Parker looked up to her alter ego Carrie Bradshaw and picked an unusual floral gown which she matched with floral pointed heels.

Rooney Mara was just another celeb in Givenchy

Sarah Jessica Parker in Valentino

Young Dakota Fanning is definitely growing up into a fashionista. She opted for a pastel Louis Vuitton gown and looked better than many celebrities on Met Gala eve. Singer M.I.A.wore a floral Stella McCartney with not so appropriate high heels. Rashida Jones and cute Victoria Justice also chose floral print for this occasion, while Brooklyn Decker, Vera Wang, Jessica Stam, Paula Patton and Scarlett Johansson played safe with pastel colors.
