What's New - Cosmic Fashion

October 2008 Fashion Horoscope by Lisa Marie Thibodeau

Aries

Fall is about contrasts and you are just the daredevil to mix things up.  A ladylike ruffled ivory blouse paired with Theory’s tailored windowpane trousers beg for glossy Betsey Johnson mary janes and a chunky rope bracelet.  Top it off with a velvet newsboy that announces you are the it girl!

Taurus

Taurus boys can be a tiny bit stubborn when it comes to change.  Time to let go, bag up your old clothes and take them down to sell at Crossroads!  This exercise is good for your closet, wallet, and undoubtedly, your soul.

Gemini

Creative gems love all the crafty stuff popping up in fall fashion.  Get inspired with an Ella Moss navy sweater dress, mustard tights and retro-looking t-straps.  A button-crusted necklace and hand knit scarf tell the world you are not a cookie cutter girl!

Cancer

October signals the return of color, leaves and the all important satchel.  A forest green Marc Jacobs suede bag with serious hardware is your go-to purse.  Carry it with jeans and Old Navy sweaters while hunting for pumpkins or filled with candy to your office on Halloween.

Leo

Leos love Halloween and express their true nature with their costume choice.  Deep down you are cheeky, so don a blue GAP turtleneck, blue leggings, blue Keds and blue hair.  Then add wings and a tail to finish the flying monkey look.  You will terrify small children!   

Virgo

Your fall piece de resistance is an over-the-top fabulous Odd Molly wool cashmere car coat in the most bewitching shade of midnight blue.  It’s luxurious and easy to wear, even as you chaperone little spooks and goblins around the block!

Libra

Bohemian breezes are causing you to layer patterns and colors with mad abandon.  Graphic houndstooth pants with a wild, floral Marc Jacobs tunic are tempered by a ruby velvet beret and basic ballerinas.  October is your favorite month, so go ahead and be a little dramatic!

Scorpio

You secretly love a good scare, so take a Halloween night walk through an old cemetery dressed in lush fall colors.  A plum Tuleh sweater dress topped with an emerald loose knit cardigan will keep some chills at bay.  Flat, chocolate riding boots are warm and practical should you need to run screaming!

Sagittarius

Fun will be had this month in a comfortable go-to outfit.  Sexy William Rast flare jeans and a super soft Rubbish striped hoodie are just what the weather ordered.  You will wear them with flats to buy candy and with heels to have fright night drinks!  

Capricorn

Colder days and chilly nights demand a return to texture.  Cabled charcoal sweaters, Tracy Reese pleated wool skirts and nubby tights will fill your drawers while flannel sheets cozy up your bed.  Simple pleasures are your remedy as the winds begin to blow.

Aquarius

Tricks are not very much fun, so treat yourself this Halloween to a cobweb-removing party.  Get all those old things that are haunting your wardrobe bagged up and down to your neighborhood Crossroads!  Bring home a few new pieces (for next to nothing!) and then celebrate with a candied-apple martini.    

Pisces

Country-club loving boys swagger through October wearing a riff on old school prep.  Pink Ralph Lauren polo shirts, standard khakis and tweed jackets have fun with a polka dotted belt and well worn Chucks.  Never a guy to get too serious, you mix dapper style with a dash of whimsy.
