August 2008 Fashion Horoscope by Lisa Marie Thibodeau
Aries
Scorching
days require inner calm and the lightest, gauziest Velvet Torch ivory sundress. You will wear it with a slim cardigan to the supermarket,
with bare feet as you eat ice cream on your balcony late at night, and come autumn,
you will even layer it over Levi’s and a tee.
Cool and poised is your late summer mantra.
Taurus
This
month has you deconstructing your wardrobe from top to bottom. Out go the boring and faded, and in come
fresh polo’s, bright tees and True Religion denim. One very cool Ed Hardy painted leather belt
and you are ready to rock your new look.
Expect to be a magnet.
Gemini
Pops
of mod are always interesting to you, especially in the dog days of
summer. A tiny plaid Rubbish miniskirt with
a wide, low belt needs only a simple Three Dots tee and a patent leather
shopper to keep it fresh. Wear this look
with your new super nerdy specs to be the cool breeze everybody’s waiting for.
Cancer
August
makes you a little crabby, so boost your mood this month with happy
colors. A sunshine yellow silk blouse
worn with blue wide leg sailors is sure to make you smile. Fun can also be had with an Orla Kiely
bright, floral handbag and a lunch date with the girls!
Leo
Leo
loves a little attention. Get yours this
month with a safari-inspired giraffe print caftan worn over simple Danskin
leggings. Mix it up with green Guess wedges
and a bracelet made from a seatbelt. Now
perch at the bar and await the many drinks which will surely come your way!
Virgo
Skater
dudes seem to know the secret to looking edgy without trying too hard. They mix an O’Neill hoodie with board shorts
and custom Vans and do not worry about their hair. Take heed, Virgo; the laid back look is a
good way to clear the head and keep the focus on having fun!
Libra
Libras
need balance, so make sure you are strictly following the revolving door
theory. Sultry nights are the perfect
time to clear out your closet and bag up some clothes to take to Crossroads! Of course, you will return with a bag
or two of new stuff, but that’s okay, because it all evens out! It’s yoga for the mind.
Scorpio
Sweating
isn’t your thing, so August finds you chilling out at home dressed in a Moth
floaty lace hoodie and tiny Roxy denim shorts.
If you have to run out for an iced coffee, slip on super cute Taryn Rose
leopard flats and a dab of vanilla scent, because you never know who you might
bump into.
Sagittarius
Fire
signs like you can take the summer heat, especially when they are rocking a Lacoste
fitted tee, slouchy denim and Kenneth Cole slides. If you must seek shade, make like fellow Sag
Brad Pitt and throw on a newsboy. This
month you are a fashion inferno!
Capricorn
Hawaiian
breezes and turquoise waters beckon, so get packing, Cappy! Carefully fold your
James Perse bermudas, a Mimi Chica ruffled skirt, tanks, bikinis and one huge
Helen Kaminski straw hat into your vintage suitcase. Before you know it, you will be sipping a
pineapple drink at the swim up bar.
Aquarius
Quirky
pieces keep catching your eye this month.
A hot orange Armani hoodie, baggy cargo pants and a stainless steel
Diesel logo ring-- all nabbed from your neighborhood Crossroads-- single you
out from the masses. And shopping
recycled is totally recession-proof!
Pisces
Watercolors
are fun right now, so dip into a long, sea green Juicy Couture maxi dress and
turquoise platforms to feel fresh from the pool. Add feathered hair and a strand of yellow
prayer beads and you are perfectly channeling Charlie’s Angels!
