We’ve filled out our Oscar ballots and predicted the gowns, now the PEOPLE StyleWatch team is ready to talk hair.

Bold bangs are sizzling hot in Hollywood right now: Amy Poehler’s just the latest star to step out with fringe, which is why we’re hoping for a big bang debut at the Oscars. Now we just have to decide who will follow in the footsteps of Michelle Obama, LeAnn Rimes and Poehler, all who have gotten sassy chops in the last month. Here are our front runners:

Amanda Seyfried: The actress has had these long, layered golden locks since her Mean Girls days, so we’re ready for her to spice it up a bit. Seyfried, call your stylist and request some side-swept bangs. They’re flattering, flirty and not-too-frightening for a first-timer … and let’s be honest, you wouldn’t mind stealing some of that Les Mis spotlight from Anne Hathaway come Sunday night.

Don’t get us wrong: we appreciate a good neutral palette. But when 80% of this week’s “Most Loved Looks” are basic black-and-white, we start to doze off … and seeing a healthy dose of bold, bright winter citrus is as refreshing as a glass of lemonade in the summer.

So we’d like to extend extra credit to (from left) Beyoncé, Jennifer Lawrence and Amanda Seyfried for all opting to wear gorgeously juicy shades of orange in the last few days; they especially popped during a week when everyone played it safe.

Our favorite part is that all three stars showed that the tricky hue can look good against any skin tone, and can be appropriate everywhere from the office to a big night out. Beyoncé went sexy in a tomato Antonio Berardi sheath; Jennifer’s marigold Emilio Pucci was pretty and professional; and Amanda’s carrot-colored Roland Mouret number was dressy and glam. And all three women picked Jimmy Choo heels — maybe it’s the official shoe of fashion risk-takers?

Tell us: Are you inspired to brighten up your winter wardrobe?

He may not be as tough a critic as his co-star Joan Rivers, but E! Fashion Police‘s George Kotsiopoulos always has something to say about what the stars are wearing. And the stylist is telling us what he really thought about the fashion at Sunday night’s SAG Awards.

Though there were plenty of gorgeous gowns on the red carpet, Kotsiopoulos, who is also a Suave Beauty spokesman, noted that very few stars took a major risk. His explanation: “Sometimes it’s better to play it safe and not too trendy, because if you win, you don’t want to look back at the picture and say, ‘What the hell was I wearing?’” Kotsiopoulos tells PEOPLE.

Check out his five best dressed celebs of the night (which happen to overlap with some of ours!), and be sure to roll over each image to get details on the star’s gown and accessories.

Jessica Chastain in Alexander McQueen: “It’s all effortless — the big [Water by Harry Winston] diamond necklace, her gorgeous skin and the dress,” Kotsiopoulos says. “She’s a movie star — tried and true.”

When it comes to the red carpet, the updo is to hair what a black gown is to fashion. But after the classic evening style was a no-show at the Golden Globes, we wondered if it would make a strong comback at tonight’s Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Instead, it was all about glamorous waves with a deep side part, as seen on Amanda Seyfried, Jennifer Lawrence, Julianne Moore, Jessica Chastain, Naomi Watts, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler – just to name a few.

Navy is the new black. At least according to the Screen Actors Guild Awards red carpet, where Jennifer Lawrence, Amanda Seyfried and Nicole Kidman all stepped out in the hue.

Want your weekend to be as relaxing as possible? Good, so do we. So we found a sexy outfit for date night, a cute brunch look for Sunday afternoon and even a work-appropriate Monday morning ensemble. Now that we’ve eliminated the “what to wear” component of your weekend, you can spend it under the covers until the very last minute.

Saturday night: Nicole Richie‘s LWD with an exposed front zipper is a bit flirty, a bit sexy and totally stylish: the perfect recipe for a date-night dress (and we found a similar one on sale for $79). The star gets extra points for her cool studded Ferragamo pumps (like this $40.32 pair), House of Harlow 1960 clutch (love this one for just $48) and smoky eye. And if you’re battling frigid temps, just throw on a pair of black tights and a moto jacket to keep warm.
