Libra (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)
The Grecian trend of 2009 is just the ticket for you, Libra. Your Venus ruler will revel in all the soft, shimmery, one-shouldered dresses that show off your elegant shoulders and arms. Look for subtly sexy, form-hugging pleated, crocheted or draped fabrics in black, white or nude. Some of the latest styles even have flapper fringe on flounce skirts, reminiscent of one of your favorite eras.
Scorpio (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)
The newest incarnation of the classic biker jacket is both tough and feminine -- just like you, Scorpio. You won't be riding with the Hell's Angels in this version, though. These short, form-hugging styles feature asymmetrical zippers or fake fur trim. And they come in rich, dark shades of buttery or metallic leather, giving you a dark edge that your mysterious Pluto ruler will love. Team with denim jeans or a tartan plaid skirt and textured tights.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)
The new country chic trend is right up your alley, Sagittarius. Try a purple-and-fuchsia tartan plaid in a feminine skirt pleated above the knee and pair with a long, belted jacket, worn with textured hose and heels or boots. You'll please your happy-go-lucky Jupiter ruler and really feel the fresh country air if you top a riding-inspired pant and flat boots with a long, forest green herringbone jacket.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)
It's time to loosen up a bit in 2009, Capricorn, and the new trend toward boyfriend jeans is just the way to do it. Raid your significant other's closet or just buy a pair of casual, straight-legged jeans and roll at the bottom. Carpenter-style jeans are back, as are ripped and beat-up-looking styles. Don't let your strict Saturn ruler work too hard at this look -- add only a simple t-shirt and sandals or flats.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)
You're an animal lover, Aquarius, so you wouldn't be caught dead in real fur. But you're sure to dig the new 2009 varieties of animal prints and fake fur. Go for a leopard- or zebra-print coat or plain wool jacket with faux fur cuffs and collar. Or try on a sexy cashmere sweater in a jaguar print. Your eccentric Uranus ruler would also adore a snazzy pair of faux snakeskin heels or boots with matching bag.
Pisces (Feb. 19 to March 20)
2009 is a year of transformation for you, Pisces, and your ethereal Neptune ruler will love the new butterfly trend. There's nothing hokey about these stunning prints that symbolize renewal. Try a mid-thigh, black-and-white butterfly tunic over narrow pants, or a floor-length, silky blue butterfly wrap dress. You'll be sure to turn heads in one of the new Chinoise-inspired satin print dresses.
