Check out a very pretty Eva Mendes in a very hot colour for Spring 2009! She appeared at the launch party of The Spirit in London with co-stars Samuel L. Jackson & Scarlett Johansson looking a treat in a strapless lemon yellow dress with ruffles. Now this is how you spring forward in a new trend; one look at Eva and you will want to put yellow on your to-do list this coming season. It's also part of the "tropical colours" trend for SS2009.

The runways were filled with yellow, and according to the Pantone Spring 2009 report, "super lemon brings a fun, optimistic outlook to the palette. Its luminosity is determined to evoke a smile and attract the roving consumer’s eyes". I'll say Eva Mendes has attracted many a roving eye looking like this! Here is a terrific selection of yellow dress in stores now, and these are all guaranteed to keep you on trend.
