Let’s talk about love and looks, people and the planet Venus.
Etymologically, Venus derives from the Latin word for desire – and in relation to fashion and aesthetics, the planet informs both what we are attracted to and who and what we are attracted to, fabrics and fk boys alike.
Venus is named for the Roman goddess of love and fertility. The female counterpart of the warlord Mars, Venus was born from the foam of the sea and the cut stick of Uranus, emerging chicks in a scallop shell – with happiness as her governing principle.
Listen, listen.
In nature and in the name of good lighting, Venus is the ruling planet of Taurus and Libra – ruling all things that feel good, look good like personal style, values, finances, interior design preferences and romantic ‘type’.
As we enter the cinnamon-scented, velvet-scented salons of Libra season, the time is nigh to take a little deep dive (not too deep—everyone knows a Libra would rather keep it current) into the relationship. between Venus and style.

Venus in LEO

Look no further than Drake for an example of a man who lives this aesthetic, complete with a rich collection of monochrome outfits and petty rivalries. Venus in Scorpio is deeply devoted to sleep, sex, and obsession, which helps explain why Drake dropped $400,000 on a mattress inspired by 18th-century saddles. Annoyed.
Antonella tells the Post, “Sagittarius brings a free vibe to the style; you can explore eclectic and bohemian pieces that allow you to express your individuality. For colors, consider vibrancy and warmth, such as rich oranges, deep reds, yellows and bold blues. Think maxi dresses, outerwear and wild patterns to amp up your energy.”

You can embrace this energy by incorporating earthy and neutral colors like deep greens, browns, grays and blacks that promote a sense of luxurious stability. Consider tailored pieces, structured silhouettes and timeless basics that are versatile and stylish; choose high-quality fabrics such as wool, cashmere or tweed.”
Miley Cyrus, who has Venus in Capricorn, is adept at making statement pieces that pull double duty as strategic shade. Case in point: fans have speculated that the costume Cyrus wears in the “Flowers” video is meant to echo the one Hemsworth wore at the 2019 Avengers: Endgame premiere, where he told her to ” behave for once”.
