Updated Veronica Lake Cutler says period looks (think the '20s, '30s, and '40s) are going to be huge this year. His favorite spin on this retro style is an "updated Veronica Lake" look. "It's barrel curls but flatter at the roots, with a side part � it's a nice update to a classic look," he says.

You could also go for more structured 20s-inspired waves or a bob. Cutler says that with these retro looks "there's an immediately recognizable elegance, a truly stylized look that results in a true statement."

I want to see more of the lavender lips...and I am SO over the bangs fad. I think that if your name is not Zoey Deschanel, stay FAR away from straight cut bangs, because she is pretty much the only human being alive who can pull them off properly.

Not really interested in many of these styles. Though, I liked the red hair. And I wish I could get a more contoured look.

Fun, fresh list! I already have red hair, but I have been dying to play with the color a little. Lighter shades don't work with my coloring, but I may try some highlights or go with a darker auburn shade (yes, for spring--who cares?).

Not so much on any of the looks described here, except flawless skin. Too bad there were no product suggestions.

I'm inspired to work on the flawless, contoured skin. And I'm tempted to try lavender lipstick...

I'm gonna try lavender lips!

The lavender lips is almost as bad as the orange ones. I am really into the bold eyeshadows and think contouring is a must, not really a trend.

Not fond of lavender lips but I love red hair. The flawless skin tips this year have helped in making me appear younger.
