Dare to wear: Yellow

Yellow has always been a risky colour to wear, and even the stars have trouble. Kate Bosworth proves you can look good in yellow, whereas Delta Goodrem doesn’t quite pull in off. Personally I’ve yet to take the plunge any further than a wimp-out lemony shade. But if you have the bottle to take on canary brights then there is plenty around to choose from this season.

Get some full on colour from Miss Selfridge with their yellow mac. Too much? To add a splash of sunshine try River Island’s bright yellow bag or Dorothy Perkins' yellow flats.

Yellow wimps like me can find add lemon to their wardrobe with this v neck draped top (£12) from Red Herring at Debenhams on the top half, or cropped trousers from Couture Candy ($119) for the bottom. If you can only take a tiny peek of the yellow stuff, Shellys cute pumps should provide your fix for £25 a pop. [Charlotte Howells]

I am really feeling those Dorothy Perkins flats and the coat! I'm *almost* inspired to put some yellow into my wardrobe. It's such an uplifting color :)

I love yellow! Unfortunately, I have yellow asian skin, so I'm a little wary of it. Any tips? I'm quite tanned.

Ms Catwalk Queen,as much as i love you, I have a bone to pick with you......you have gone and put up the very coat i've been lusting after and saving up for?
(We all know you read minds)

aarrgh......Now all these rich ladies are gonna get there before me and its gonna sell out!

i gonna have to just content myself with the fact that my black skin goes beautifully with yellow and imagine it on me.

Tor, blame Charlotte not me! ;)

What can I say, you both obviously have good taste. x

But don't you think bright yellow has been pretty much co-opted by emergency personnel, soccer goalies and children's rain slickers -- the rescue/utility sector? I can see yellow shoes or a yellow bag but I think a whole yellow outfit would be hard to get away with... and hard on those around you, lol.
