We’re continuing the fun in the second part of our two part series on dressing for your zodiac sign. This week we’re covering the remaining six sun signs by analyzing how their personality traits might dictate their fashion choices. Does this sound like you or those closest to you? Let us know if we hit the mark on social media!

1. Libra: The Scales (September 23-October 22)

Balanced and beautiful, Libras are as charming and enthralling as the clothes they wear. Usually elegant, polished, thoughtful, and well-rounded, your wardrobe consists of the styles that flatter you, whether classic or trendy, and symmetry is totally your thing. Being ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, love, and luxury, it’s not unusual for you to be the epitome of put-togetherness, though it’s often in a favorite piece you’re seen wearing again and again. Try this trendy, yet classic, day to night jumpsuit–it’s a fresh swap for your favorite little black dress. Priced at $139.

2. Scorpio: The Scorpion (October 23-November 21)

Scorpios are known for their mysteriousness and seductiveness. Already magnetic to begin with, reserved Scorpios don’t need much help drawing attention to themselves, since it’s usually their mystique, not their attire, that attracts others to them. It’s believed that Scorpios often gravitate toward classic, potentially pricey, designer basics and don’t usually get their fill of risk-taking through fashion. With a dramatic dark wash, reputable label, flattering high-rise, and an on-trend skinny fit, you’ll quickly make these jeans your new wardrobe staple. Priced at $79.97.

3. Sagittarius: The Archer (November 22-December 21)

Lively, cheerful, and sometimes extravagant, Sagittarian women are always down for a shopping extravaganza, er trip. And while you’re there, they’ll tell you the truth, and nothing but the truth, about whether or not those jeans make your ass look big. Known for their worldly and nomadic nature, you’ll probably find this zodiac sign packing a bag for their next excursion, perhaps inspiring you to tag along. Relaxed elegance with quirky accents is great for the traveling Sagittarian, which is why we recommend this adorable and striking kimono mini backpack that’s perfect for toting your passport, cash, and lip gloss on a sightseeing adventure. Priced at $48.

4. Capricorn: The Goat (December 22-January 19)

Capricorns are probably the most practical sign in the zodiac, so they gravitate toward comfortable pieces, but almost always with a side of effortless sophistication. Check any Capricorn’s closet and you’ll probably find an array of structured blazers and amazingly well-tailored trousers, jeans, dresses, and blouses in silk, leather, cashmere, and other top-notch materials. Set in their ways, from hair to makeup to clothes, Capricorns know what styles work for them and stick to it. This two-piece set is elegant with a twist, plus Capricorns will love being able to style this multiple ways, appealing to their practicality. Priced at $128.

5. Aquarius: The Water Bearer (January 20 to February 18)

People born under the Aquarius zodiac sign are believed to be highly experimental, exuding an innovate and oftentimes avant-garde energy. Always into the cutting edge of things, especially when it comes to technology, you may be sporting clothes that serve double-duty for ease of use with the latest smartphone. Your unpretentious, informal nature, combined with your unique edge, means you’ll probably never show up to the party in the same outfit as another. Oh, and the party? That’s code word for peaceful protest against one of the many causes you care about. Crazy cat lady and animal lover approved, you’ll love wearing this cozy kitty sweater dress. Priced at $54.99.

6. Pisces: The Fish (February 19 to March 20)

The dreamers of the zodiac, Pisces are sensitive, gentle, romantic, and creative. Many will have an affinity for the arts or be artistic. And although they may be hard to nail down, as they do enjoy their personal time away from the world, you can bet that when you do find them, their style will reflect their sensitive attitude. We think flowing styles, perhaps incorporating shades of blue, like the color of your “home,” and soft exteriors might work best for most Pisces. Try this beautiful kimono maxi with a pair of stacked platform heels and a barrette in your hair. Priced at $149.95.

The post 5 + 1 Ways to Dress for Your Zodiac Sign (Part 2 of 2): Friday Finds appeared first on EcoSalon.

What better way to celebrate the New Year than by having a little fun with our zodiac signs. We set out to discover how each one might dress based on astrological personality traits. In an effort to bring you a lighthearted look at your fashion-based future, we hope you enjoy our analysis of each zodiac sign. Whether it’s spot on, or a little off the mark, be sure to let us know how it panned out by sharing your thoughts with us on social media. Keep an eye out for part two next week!

1. Aries: The Ram (March 21-April 19)

Naturally confident, this fire sign is believed to be ruled by the headstrong and determined ram. High energy, boldness, devotion, a caring demeanor, and heroic tendencies are all positive attributes associated with an Aries. Therefore, we suggest gravitating toward bright, vibrant colors to match your unstoppable personality, including experimenting with the latest trends. Highlight your head and face, the body part ruled by your sign, in this bodycon set in hot lava. Priced at $78.

2. Taurus: The Bull (April 20-May 20)

This earth sign is ruled by the planet Venus and therefore enjoys beauty and fine, well-made goods. A stable, grounded person, Taurus is described as being patient, romantic, careful, and organized. Although known to enjoy luxurious things, they don’t like to waste money, so it’s important to marry the two ideals when shopping. Try this elegant, silk, wear-with-everything Rebecca Taylor top with a discounted (to the tune of 63 percent) price tag. Priced at $83.99.

3. Gemini: The Twins (May 21-June 20)

Although Geminis may find it hard to nail down their personal style, it’s totally cool, because they don’t like playing by the rules or being told what to do anyway. Said by AstroStyle to be “the most versatile and vibrant of all the zodiac signs,” Gemini energy is believed to help us “communicate, collaborate and fly our freak flags at full mast.” Geminis could easily be pioneers in the fashion industry, so pick something, like this eyes-on-me yellow maxi, that stands out as much as you do! Priced at $299.

4. Cancer: The Crab (June 21-July 22)

Cancer is possibly the most nurturing and sensitive of all the zodiac signs. Hard on the outside, but soft on the inside, this little crab likes cozy comforts and putting down roots. Instead of taking fashion risks, Cancers are more likely to gravitate to the tried and true neutrals that makeup the backbone of any good wardrobe, but not without a feminine twist. Consider this neutral, yet soft, ruffled chino jacket to pair with all your favorite jeans and tees. Priced at $98.

5. Leo: The Lion (July 23-August 22)

Often the bold leaders that we find ourselves looking up to, Leos have a flair for the dramatic and somehow always look spectacular. Their love of all things luxurious means they’ll usually be clad in the finest threads. Brutally honest, they’re the person you should turn to when getting dressed, they’ll never let you leave the house looking bad. Try this bold, sexy, sparkly, and revealing little black dress with your favorite heels and a killer smoky eye. Priced at $88.

6. Virgo: The Virgin (August 23-September 22)

Perfectionists by nature, every time you see a Virgo, there usually isn’t a single hair out of place. Pristine from head-to-toe, this sign, associated with health, helpfulness, order, organization, innocence, and purity, probably has their closet in order by color and style. With an affinity for wellness, coupled with their incredibly high standards, they usually look flawless and can spot a knock-off in an instant. Snap up these beautiful floral boho pants and pair them with your favorite blouse for a flawless day-to-night look. Priced at $42.

The 20 Best & Worst Cities for Your Astrological Sign

The post 5 + 1 Ways to Dress for Your Zodiac Sign (Part 1 of 2): Friday Finds appeared first on EcoSalon.

There are many paths you can take to honing in on your ideal beauty products. Choosing for your skin tone and eye color is important. Whether skin is oily, dry, or normal is another important factor. But have you ever considered your astrological sign?

Wait, what?

You read it right. Beauty products perfectly suited to each zodiac sign. Hey, if you can choose a career or navigate a relationship based on your sign, a lipstick or eyeshadow is fair game, too, right?

And that makes a lot of sense, if you think about it. Each sign has unique characteristics. Take bold Aries. She would definitely be more likely to sport a fuchsia lipstick than, say, a more reserved Cancer.

Want to know which makeup product is perfect for your sign? Natural makeup brand, Alima Pure, has put together a handy dandy list of beauty products by astrological sign. Take a peek.

Which Beauty Products are Perfect for Your Astrological Sign?

Aries

Alima Pure says: After hectic March with its two eclipses, a little slowness and stillness helps you re-center. With the Sun in Aries, it is a time for articulating life goals and plotting new ways to go after them. A little Highlighter in Whisper on the cheekbones is the perfect dewy spring look for deep contemplation.

EcoSalon says: Aries isn’t afraid of a challenge. Why not take it one step further and add a touch of highlighter eyelids and lips for a super updated, musical festival season look?

Taurus

Alima Pure says: Before the excitement of birthday season, clear out the things that are holding you back, and focus your energy on self-restoration as you prepare for excitement waiting in the wings. Try Satin Matte Eyeshadow in Sage.

EcoSalon says: While you are doing some mental clearing, how about giving your diet a good spring cleaning too?

Gemini

Alima Pure says: Now is the time to find your tribe and enjoy being your strange and amazing self around the people who cherish your eccentricities more than anything else. Plan a new adventure with them that you’ll be able to look back on for years to come—the quirkier the better. Rock a bold smoky eye and explore with Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow in Tigereye.

EcoSalon says: Sounds like it may be time to stock up on some hot travel tips.

Cancer

Alima Pure says: The tension between Mars and Saturn forms a wedge between you and your lofty goals, perhaps preventing you from springing into action. With a solid plan, nothing is out of reach. But is there something beneath the surface that requires your attention first? Fresh, wearable Satin Matte Blush in Antique Rose adds a healthy pop of color to welcome springtime.

EcoSalon says: Nothing conquers mind clutter and helps you get to the bottom of things like a little meditation.

Leo

Alima Pure says: Tried your hand at the lottery lately, Leo? The sweeping winds of luck push you forward toward things you’ve perhaps shied away from in the past. Though better judgment has previously steered you in a different direction, now is the time to take that risk and reap the abundant rewards that await. Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow in Smoke is the perfect spring wash of color that shakes things up.

EcoSalon says: Speaking of risky behavior. Find out how Julia Roberts stays so gorgeous and youthful looking the natural way.

Virgo

Alima Pure says: Spring cleaning is a time to let go of that nagging toxic habit you’ve been trying to shed for some time now. The first few weeks of April give you a chance to get to the root of the habit, and to develop a new plan for starting fresh. Follow suit on your eyes with Natural Definition Eye Pencil in Paper as a fresh white base for colorful shadow.

EcoSalon says: While healthy habits are totally a good thing, remember not to take them too far.

Libra

Alima Pure says: As you come to the end of a major personal transformation–about two years’ worth of growth and changes–you’re ready to embrace your individual awesomeness. Curb that tendency to get down on yourself by enlisting the Buddy System. Choose a versatile, and wearable shade for shadow, brows, and even liner with Satin Matte Eyeshadow in Raven.

EcoSalon says: Before adorning those peepers, learn how to shape your brows the right way.

Scorpio

Alima Pure says: After the turbulence of March’s eclipses, it’s time to get back to business and deal with the spring cleaning, paperwork, and routines that may have been bumped from your to-do list. Reward your hard work with a fun spring hue–try Pearluster Eyeshadow in Camel for a wearable bronze smoky eye that adds intensity to the color of your eyes.

EcoSalon says: If your spring cleaning needs a push in that direction, find out how to kondo your closets and more.

Sagittarius

Alima Pure says: Some serious hard work has been paying off, and now it’s time to relax and celebrate. Time with your crew is reinvigorating, and whether you’re single or taken, things are about to get exciting. Leave the eyes with a smooth wash of color as you explore what’s out there with Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow in Oceana.

EcoSalon says: Give off that ‘70s vibe without looking outdated. Shimmer required.

Capricorn

Alima Pure says: Before you’re ready to fully embrace spring, a little winding down and recovery is in store for you. Make your home a place for recuperation, and celebrate your downtime with an escape into a book that’s been on your list forever, or that show everyone’s been talking about. Keep your look low-maintenance too with moisturizing Lip Tint in Petal.

EcoSalon says: Take in a few classic films with some serious fashion eye candy.

Aquarius

Prepare for the pent-up brilliance and creativity within you to burst free with the new moon. You become more articulate than ever, and your artful persuasion can be the impetus for new projects. You’ll even inspire others to get on board with one of your awesome new ideas. Try a lustrous silvery eyeshadow to match your silver tongue: Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow in Ava.

EcoSalon says: Give creativity a boost with these inspo-inducing ideas.

Pisces

Repeat after me, Pisces: No. Scrubs. Whether you realize it or not, you’re now beyond the halfway point of a slow, but steady two-year era of self-improvement and growth. Now comes the fun part, where deeper connections with those around you (or perhaps just a certain special one?!) yield the attention and kindness you deserve. Try Luminous Shimmer Eyeliner in Nightfall.

EcoSalon says: Try your hand at the new, colorful take on a smoky eye.

Colorstrology: A Horoscope, Except with Color

Full Moon Freakout: Study Finds Lunar Phases Matters

The post 9 Out of this World Astrology and Astronomy Decor Ideas for Your Home appeared first on EcoSalon.

When I found a little something called Colorstrology, my heart skipped at least three beats. Just as your day of birth lends you an astrological sign, it also lends a specific color that offers insight into your personality. After perusing Colorstrology, I am utterly infatuated.

Here is an excerpt with insight from Michele Bernhardt (the creator of the Colorstrology site):

“The colors that we see all around us are a reflection of the sun’s light in all its glory. It is magic made visible. There is nothing more miraculous, unexpected or wondrous than seeing a rainbow appear in the sky. You are part of that rainbow of light and just as being born on a particular day under a particular Sun sign offers insights into your personality and nature, there is also a personal color that corresponds to the real you. It is a color that reflects the very essence of your specific birth date. There is a world of possibilities contained in each day of birth.”

Click over to Colorstrology and start your obsession. After the scintillation site introduction, click on your birth month and learn a little bit about your personality. Then click on your specific birthday (by clicking on the calendar near the top of the site) and explore the depths of your character.

My color is sunflower (Pantone 16-1054), which I see gracefully lounging on the ceiling in the perfect photograph above (by Michael Eastman). In the interest of (not so subtle) narcissism, here is what Colorstrology had to say about me.

“You are not afraid to fight for what you want. You have the ability and strength and know-how to persevere in the face of adversity. You are a generous and loving person and quietly lend a helping hand to a great many people. Your personal color helps ease your tenacious spirit. Wearing, meditating or surrounding yourself with Sunflower inspires calm as you continue to learn, explore and attain the many goals that you have on your horizon.”

After scrutinizing and evaluating my personal color, I also lingered around long enough to look up the personal colors of just about everyone I know. It is only fair to warn you that this lovely little place of color palettes is somewhat addicting.

So, what’s your color?!
