What's New - Cosmic Fashion

May 2008 Fashion Horoscope by Lisa Marie Thibodeau

Aries

Purple is your power color this time of year.  Try a BCBG painterly wrap dress with plum slashes for a bold statement, or tie a purple polka-dotted scarf around your wrist to energize black pants and a basic GAP tee.  Either way, the hue will fuel your creativity and enhance your luck.

Taurus

Show off your first spring pedicure with a pair of Naughty Monkey studded black biker sandals.  Whatever else you wear is really unimportant, as these babies will totally distract and even shock.  Just throw on some Levi’s and maybe a jacket and wait for the Harleys to race to your door.

Gemini

Love is in the springtime air.  Catch the vibe with a floaty Roxy batik print camisole and rugged Old Navy cargo shorts.  A slim ribbon choker and a baby pink LAMB satchel will seal the deal.  This month, hearts will melt like that final blanket of winter snow.

Cancer

Cleaning in spring is mandatory, so finally tackle your cluttered closet this month.  Take all your castaways down to Crossroads for credit or cash and then fold, vacuum and hang lavender sachets.  Take a deep breath knowing you have done good deeds and can now enjoy a fresh start!

Leo

Lions need to work hard now before lazy summer days make them sleepy.  Invest in some serious Theory black dress pants to pair with cashmere sweaters and Kenneth Cole loafers or even graphic tees and Vans.  Study, sweat and stay focused; soon you will be napping on a towel in the sun! 

Virgo

Pops of orange are inviting themselves into your closet right now.  Tie an apricot Plenty by Tracy Reese cardigan over a basic grey sweater dress and slip on Camper’s black and white cameo flats for a look that says juicy.  Want to feel even sunnier?  A few neon orange streaks woven into your dark hair will ignite the whole look!

Libra

Spring into action this month and start working up a sweat.  Before heading to the gym, run in to your closest Crossroads and load up on American Apparel tees in super bright colors, comfy, easy Prada exercise pants and fresh Pumas.  From now on, the only thing getting fatter will be your wallet!

Scorpio

One plain, pure-pink Anna Sui shirtdress will be your new go-to item, even well into summer.  Dress it up with Betsey Johnson satin peep toes and a retro-ish patent leather clutch, or tone it way down with candy colored bangles and flip flops.  May is the month to simplify your life, beginning with getting dressed.

Sagittarius

Some saggi’s have had a hard time lately (think Britney) and need a complete do over.  Start with your hair (don’t shave it!), then re-invent yourself with the classics.  Wide-legged black trousers with a fitted black vest need only a shiny Pink Tartan cropped trapeze jacket to spell f-a-b-u-l-o-u-s.  A few long strands of Chanel-inspired pearls and you are totally reborn.  

Capricorn

Caps love the statement bag more than any other sign.  A quilted, plum Marc Jacobs tote is the perfect marriage of couture and whimsy and will make everything you wear look that much better.  Plus, have fun spending your tax refund on a fashion indulgence!

Aquarius

Mod boys need one essential look to shake up their closets this spring, so why not try a Juicy Couture plaid jacket and long shorts?  A neon yellow tee is the perfect punctuation mark, and black high-tops keep it funky.  Be brave and wear this to school, work or even an informal wedding!

Pisces

Dressmaker details are strong this season and you are just the sensitive girl to embrace them.  A robin’s egg blue cotton shell with delicate pin-tucking is a sublime way to frame your face.  Pair with a slim floral Odille pencil skirt and librarian-gone-wild stilettos.  Paying close attention always ensures impeccable style.
