At StyleDash, the summer months present us with a quandary of sorts: how to enjoy the sun without getting baked. Some of us (*ahem* me) will burn at the mere mention of the sun, but the rest of us worry about balancing getting some color without needlessly exposing our skin to harmful UV rays.

Fortunately, fashion has offered us a helping hand via the sunhat. A big, floppy sunhat, while not always fashionable, can do a lot to block the worst of the sun, while still letting us soak up some vitamin D and enjoy the outdoors. Even better, in typical fashionista, well, fashion, big overly dramatic sunhats are becoming quite popular this season.

So our friends at Stylelist have this question for their newest weekly poll: Are you hot or cold on uber-dramatic sunhats?

We think that the right style, worn the right way, can be positively stunning -- but we'd love to know what you think. Vote in the Stylelist poll and then sound-off in the comments!

Now that June is upon us, one of the best ways to fight the heat is with a shorter 'do. On the right type of face, we LOVE the Pixie cut. It is easy to maintain and looks sleek and sophisticated and can be a godsend in those summer months for people with extremely dark hair.

But if a pixie is too short, or if you don't have the type of face that supports short hair -- high cheekbones are a must -- the Pixie can be downright disastrous. Still, as more and more celebs start rocking the short hair (think Rhianna), to sheer or not to sheer becomes a big summer hair question.

So our friends at Stylelist want to know, would you get a pixie cut? Sound off by answering this week's poll and let us know in the comments what you think.

Karl Lagerfeld showed off a lot of looks in the Chanel show at Resort 2009, but the look that really caught our eye -- and the eye of our sister site StyeList -- was the femme tuxedo.

The femme tuxedo trend is hardly new, Lanvin featured a tux in their Spring '08 show and celebrities from Ellen DeGeneres to Charlize Theron have worn tuxedos or tuxedo-inspired suits on the red carpet.

So that brings us to this week's StyleList poll: Would you wear a female tuxedo? Do you find the trend tasteful or tacky? Go vote over at StyleList and sound off in the comments!
