    The Trend: Cherry red lacquerNothing says screen siren like long crimson nails artfully filed to a delicate point, a look Rita Hayworth was known for. While nails of every color and pattern are the latest craze, we'd like to see the return of this classic. Long and tapered, these nails turn a woman's hands into a powerful tool of seduction.

    The Trend: PermsSince 1906, when Charles Nestle invented the permanent wave, perms have given women a way to add body to limp locks. In the '40s and '50s, perms gave hair a glamorous fullness (as seen here on model Suzy Parker), but by the '80s, big hair got bigger and perms earned their bad rap. Luckily, today's perms have come a long way, and we're all for enhancing your hair the new old-fashioned way.YOU TELL US: Do you have a perm horror story?

    The Trend: Wind bonnetsBad hair days, begone. Inspired by style icons of the '60s, we're throwing caution to the wind and angling for a reprise of these headscarves. Meant to keep hair coiffed in any weather—or when cruising around in a convertible—wind bonnets won't flatten your hair like a hat, plus they add an air of sophistication to any look.

    The Trend: Blooms behind the earGaining popularity during World War II, when American soldiers stationed in Hawaii tucked them behind their ladies' ears, flowers as hair accessories have, more recently, been worn by hippies and brides alike. But we think they can breathe life into any evening or weekend look.

    The Trend: Half-up, half-down 'dosSofter than a ponytail yet more done than simply wearing your hair down, this style take mere seconds to do and the payoff is huge: The look can open up your face, and make you look years younger. While versions of the style are always in, we'd like to see more of Catherine Deneuve's smooth and simple take on the trend.

    The Trend: BandanasMusic's bad boys have always worn bandanas to channel cool—or to conceal bald spots. But it takes a real rebel of a woman to sport one on her head. In its original kerchief print, the classic bandana is ripe for a return.

    The trend: No-fuss cutsIn the age of the Kardashians, women seem to need a team of stylists just to go the gym, which makes us long for the Gen X slacker cuts of the mid '90s.
