I have a few investment pieces, but I definitely resonate with the nice fabric bit- velvet, silk, etc. Gemini they said being able to go day to night- that's a definite for me! I don't live near anything, so I don't go home between activities. I'd have to look at my birth certificate to see the rest though!

It's versatility: like, go to the park, go to class, you can even put on a little bit of makeup and wear it out. Sagittarius Venus might really want to play with layering their clothes for the same reason, so that if they end up going out after a day of classes and work and never going home, then they can just take off a layer or add one.” --- SUN (Capricórn): --- As for Sun sign, I think @Suz said it best with the 'sturdy shoes' quote - & 'well tailored classics'. Not sure I agree with the rest though ('designer denim, fisherman jumpers, Breton striped tops... especially *not* muted colours'! Also no thanks to "cowboy boots, cableknit sweaters... button-down shirts, leather jackets." --- Interesting reads - I wonder whether other YLFers can see these aspects in the way we dress (or if it's just our own perceptions)? Thanks for the thread!

Sign: Sagittarius The description from AstroTwins of denim as a staple could not be LESS accurate for me. Completely off. But the more specific descriptions from the actual chart are far more accurate. I lean toward intricate items, edge and statement pieces, always well-maintained. Virgo rising:  “Honestly, with the energy of Virgo rising, something that literally takes time to put on. Things that have multiple buttons, like<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.nylon.com/fashion/how-to-wear-a-corset"> a corset</a>, or layered necklaces that they have to clasp every one, or lace-up boots. Things that literally take their conscious attention to put on. Also, things that are loved, never anything that's falling apart, but something that's like a worn-in pair of<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.nylon.com/fashion/how-to-break-in-doc-martens"> Doc Martens</a>. That feeling of worn leather or how your favorite jeans fit — things that are worn-in just because they've been loved. The consistency of having their favorite pieces is a very Virgo rising thing.” Venus in Scorpio: “Venus is in a Mars-ruled sign when it's in Scorpio, so this is being drawn towards something that's a little bit more of an edgy style. It's based on what you like and how you feel versus what the world likes, what's aesthetically pleasing, and what's fashionable. Scorpio Venus can really let themselves dress to match kind of how they feel, something with a statement piece, but still mysterious. It's going to keep people guessing. Scorpio Venus style will be about sending the message: ‘I don't really care, but maybe I do. You can't tell.’” Bonnie on "following the stars to your style ;-)" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/following-the-stars-to-your-style--#post-2297729 Thu, 22 Dec 2022 02:30:34 +0000 Bonnie 2297729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The Astro Twins Aquarius description was right about how I like to dress. Sporty, hippie, statement clothing, and easy care sound like me. I don't know my rising and Venus sign and I know I can find out but I'm happy with what the Astro Twins wrote.  Jaime on "following the stars to your style ;-)" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/following-the-stars-to-your-style--#post-2297725 Thu, 22 Dec 2022 02:09:24 +0000 Jaime 2297725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Cancer: Although you can be thrifty, you’ll splurge on bespoke finds. You also love upscale vintage, especially hand-selected pieces sold in quaint little consignment shops. As the sign of the motherhood, you can make “granny chic” look good in the right measure: crocheted pullovers, floral prints and shawls. The bold part is me to a tee!

If anyone can get away with just wearing leather, Aries rising can."  I don't own anything leather at the moment apart from shoes, and I really don't like leather skirts or pants. Then this is the complete opposite-  "Libra Venus feels very Y2K sometimes. I don't want to say dress like a pop star-ish, but that works for Libra Venus. Things that have some girly energy to it, Libra Venus can do well with that."  I don't think I dress very girly at all.  Virgo Sun " You have a complex preparation ritual and you hate to be rushed."  No I take about 5 minutes.  nuancedream on "following the stars to your style ;-)" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/following-the-stars-to-your-style--#post-2297695 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 22:26:58 +0000 nuancedream 2297695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Lisa, you and I are very similar. I'm also a Libra with Virgo in Venus except I have a Sagittarius rising. I guarantee it will be a glacier cold day in hell before I wear anything on the lower half of my body that fits like a sausage casing. rachylou on "following the stars to your style ;-)" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/following-the-stars-to-your-style--#post-2297683 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 21:32:04 +0000 rachylou 2297683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sagittarius rising and Aries Venus… legs best feature and ‘wearing what others won’t.’ LOL, for sure the latter Anonymous on "following the stars to your style ;-)" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/following-the-stars-to-your-style--#post-2297679 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 20:52:31 +0000 Anonymous 2297679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Scorpio here! I forgot my rising and Venus signs so used Co-Star Astrology to get the info again. Leo rising and Venus in Scorpio. I do have a jean biker jacket LaPed on "following the stars to your style ;-)" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/following-the-stars-to-your-style--#post-2297674 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 20:25:53 +0000 LaPed 2297674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sun in Pisces, Scorpio rising, Venus in Aries. Typical Pisces descriptions are always way off. I don't do anything drapy or floaty or gauzy. I do spend a lot of time "in nature" but my appearance when I do so is less hippie-mystic, more sporty-dirtbag.  Scorpio is probably a little closer to the mark, in that I have a rebellious streak and feel uncomfortable if I look like everybody else or feel like I'm dressing to please others/meet expectations. And I'll never be without a hefty dose of black in my closet! ;)  The description for Venus in Aries is interesting. I don't see myself as consciously cutting edge, but when I see something I like, I wear it regardless of whether it's trending or not. In fact, I'm more likely to wear it if nobody else around me is. As soon as I noticed cropped wide-legs becoming a wardrobe staple among the rest of the moms, I stopped reaching for mine. The main reason I haven't gone back to a pixie is because they're everywhere now. Etc. Star (Lise) on "following the stars to your style ;-)" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/following-the-stars-to-your-style--#post-2297670 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 19:49:07 +0000 Star (Lise) 2297670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Pisces -  <div> Your dreamy sign is connected to the ethereal realm, and some Pisces draw sartorial inspiration from mermaids, fairies, angels and other magical creatures. Flutter about in wing-sleeved shirts, filmy layers, sequined shrugs, floaty dresses that shimmer and sparkle. A born mystic and old soul, you might incorporate fortune-teller touches like shawls, capes and headwraps. So totally NOT me.  I detest float wide sleeves on myself and shawls and shrugs and anything floaty. </div><div> </div> Suz on "following the stars to your style ;-)" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/following-the-stars-to-your-style--#post-2297668 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 19:15:28 +0000 Suz 2297668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This was fun.  For Capricorn, a few key sentences popped out: "Symbolized by the mountain goat, you need sturdy shoes to help you trek to the top of the ladder....Since Capricorn is the sign of the executive, you’ll need at least one power suit hanging in your closet. Your sign enjoys rebelling against gender norms. Female Capricorns look great in suits, ties, blazers and boyfriend jeans...."best looks" Moto or cowboy boots, cableknit sweaters, blazers, antique jewelry, button-down shirts, leather jackets." Avoid: overstyled hair, ruffles.  (Not so sure about moto or cowboy boots -- though I have owned both -- or leather jackets, though I do own a few...and cableknits are typically a bit "rough" for me...but...they also say avoid lace, which I don't and don't want to -- though I use in minimal quantities.)  Colours -- black (NOPE, though it looks okay, navy's so much better), grey (yes), forest green (looks good on me but I rarely wear), plum (yes). Taurus rising: "Taurus rising physical qualities [are] clothes that are loose and flowing, soft fabrics, even silk." (Ed. note. NOT loose and flowing, no way, no how, it is my worst!") "A very luxury feel, things that maybe are ‘less is more.’ Taurus risings might want to have some very timeless pieces that they did invest in and just kind of work those different ways in their outfits. It’s kind of got a goddess energy to it, so things that kind of have that luxe feeling.” (Sure for some luxe fabrics and a couple of really great coats or jackets as "investments." But honestly? Not very descriptive.)  Venus in Aquarius: “For Aquarius Venus, the first style I kind of feel for them is skater chic. Oversized T-shirts, looking super cool, but also edgy. If there's something kind of controversial, they’re making a statement about it. Aquarius Venus lets the accessories tell a story. Aquarius Venus is the one who can be wearing a bunch of different types of stones,<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.nylon.com/articles/healing-crystal-jewelry"> like crystals</a>. It's the last air sign, so their aesthetic taste is thought out, there's something meaningful behind everything that they put on. But it can totally be eclectic too, it doesn't mean it's all going to mean the same thing. It can mean a lot of different little messages for them personally.” I laughed at that one. Skater chic? Me?  judy on "following the stars to your style ;-)" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/following-the-stars-to-your-style--#post-2297667 Wed, 21 Dec 2022 19:14:03 +0000 judy 2297667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Those were fun reads!  Thanks for posting. And surprisingly accurate, too: <div> "Keep it simple. You’re a classic earth sign who looks great in well-tailored basics, and you should build your wardrobe around that concept.

She, Tatjana and I are all Venus in Virgo, which I don't see as easily in any of our primary styles, but maybe in the shadows. Vildy you have the Leo persona going for sure! I think Carla would be a hit in a Scorpio biker jacket, just tempered with some of her classics, and maybe in navy or red. Slim Cat, I always think of Taurus as liking luxurious, sensual yet cosy fabrics.

Venus is in Virgo, which Tanya already quoted.  Y'all are going to laugh: "It's all about the hair for Leo risings." "Your hair is the “mane event,” of course, Leo. Let your locks go wild, in a “big hair, don’t care” kind of way." "What colors should Leos wear? Gold, orange, red" "What matters most of all is how luxurious you feel when you slip into your attire. Silky fabrics that feel delicious against your skin are a must! Curate a collection of high-end loungewear for the copious hours spent in your lair. The concept of “pajama dressing” must have been designed with off-duty Leos in mind. Patterned silk pants, camisole tops and satiny button-downs look perfectly appropriate for public when you dress them up a smidge."

It was fun to find relevant style details in all the three: 1) "Libra style has a flair for fashion and expensive tastes to match…You’d dress up for an errand run…Hey, as the zodiac's most romantic sign, Libras always like to be prepared for that spontaneous magic moment." (Same as Lisa) Also: "Because you’re the sign of the freedom fighter, some Libras prefer a punk-rock edge. Caution: it could look like you’re trying hard too hard to be a badass. Balance the grit with soft accents, and you’ll rock that Libra combination of sugar and spice".   ( One of my two shadow style personas is edgy). "Libras look great in jewel tones, and should avoid dull or heavy colors." (Love jewel tones!) 2) “Gemini (rising) is interesting. They might actually be the one who wants to mix multiple patterns or mix multiple different assets, different layered necklaces that are different colors, or something. Either patterns mixed or colors mixed, or just a lot of something.”  ( I do like pattern mixing and juxtapositions). 3) “Virgo Venus honestly can get away with letting themselves dress a little bit more — if they want — sexier because they can really rock form-fitting things. Typically, because we are looking at a Venus that is in the sign of its fall, Virgo can be a little hardcore. Venus doesn't love to be there. Although part of them wants to be very people-pleasing and likable, typically their secret fashion sense is actually a little bit more edgy. Like fishnets, maybe chokers — a lot of them deep down always want to dress like that so they typically can pull it off very well. It matches that fall in Venus energy of creating their own relationship with what beauty is, which oftentimes is by actually dressing kind of sexy. Virgo Venus can be good with just having things that are more understated, too. Not all Virgo Venuses need to dress sexy, but if they want to, if there's a part of them inside that does, they might want to try that.” (Copied the whole thing, as it was hard to get individual sentences that made sense in isolation.   Strangely fitting for me, as my two shadow style personas are edgy and bombshell-y, but those are almost exclusively left for non-work occasions.) Myers-Briggs would be fun to play with as well!
