For me, it's top, pants - Done. Usually pullover tops with v-necks and/or small collers. A little cleavage never hurt anyone. Slim fitting pants that hug the bum nicely are appreciated too

Colors...
I like reds, and corals and all dark colors, and I were alot of blue too.

I avoid "flashy" colors, with the exception of red.

And I HATE to iron.

And I LOVE jeans, especially low waisted cuts that are looser at the waist so they don't squeeze in an unflattering way, and I can were crop tops that show a little navel action. My b/f loves that.

*I'd live in jeans if I didn't have to doll it up a bit for work.

Having said that, I have to say I ALSO love the elegant special occasion attire. Just can't get enough of that... but I don't have enough opportunities to really get gussied up, unfortunately.
But when I do, I go for the "all heads turn when I walk into a room" look...simply dazzling is what I'm trying to achieve. (VERY Leo of me, I know)

Man, this sure is a girly thread! I love it!

Also, he wears quite a bit of black, gray and white. Pants, shorts... jeans or khakis. Looks good in fatigues. Also, baseball caps.

Me? hmmmm.... no pink. I don't do stripes. I have quite a bit of black. Yet, I like for it to have a certain look as opposed to the goth look that we scorps get hooked with

I do have a few leather items (typical). Not the goth type of look.

All shades of purple (funny as I don't like pink) creams, whites... no particular color really. However, I do tend to gravitate towards black and wine.

Sun dresses... love those things... just throw on a pair of sandels and go.

I love boots.

Also, if it's accessories, I stick with silver tones. Just love platinum

Okay, this AriesSun/CancerMoon/AriesAsc. wears lots of bright colours, tons of green, and lots of RED -- if the clothes are neutral, beige or taupe, that lipstick is red!! Scarves, often! I do patterns, but nothing large or splashy, although I will do bold. The style varies from business casual to formal to frothy to good ol' schlumpy shorts and the eponymous black pants, but there's one rule -- I hate dressing like everyone else. A lot of my stuff is either unique, or uniquely put-together -- thrift-shop retro or designer -- but my CancerMoon shows especially in the retro pieces I've collected, and wear... last year I went to a wedding, and we all changed later for the giant backyard cookout/reception, where I wore a black tank and shorts, with a 1960s yellow moiré pattern Jackie Kennedy-style jacket over it...

...I don't quite glow in the dark, but lately I've been shopping with my Libra buddy, trying to figure out how she manages to choose such _elegant_ clothing... mind you she's built like a clothesrack and I've got the hips of my Ukrainian peasant ancestors, so go figya we can't dress alike!

I like to wear sporty casual stuff, jeans and simple tops or ultra feminine dresses (think 1805) and skirts.

Fabric is all important. Things have to feel nice on skin.

I've noticed that I gravitate towards some colour for a season and then don't wear it again for years. No patterns usually. Small floral for skirts perhaps.

Things I keep coming back to are all different kinds bluish tones - from powder blue to navy. And purple as well. I also like to wear only black or only white. Quite a few people have commented that somehow white makes me appear more slender and more 'present'. Go figure. I just feel very comfortable and put together in white. In darker gray tones I can go anywhere totally unnoticed. If I were a spy, it would probably be an advantage.

I go very light with accessories. No scarfs, hats and stuff. A great belt perhaps. Shoes and boots are my real weakness. <sigh>

Shoes/boots with big chunky heels ... black of course.

I guess my clothing is a bit eccentric. Everything from hard core punk to frilly new romantic to boring housewife! I do love shoes, though... anything that makes me taller.

Me: Cancer- Virgo Rising Moon in Aquarius.

Funny, I wanted to add that yellow is a typicall Gem colour, mine wears it too and I adore him in a yellow t' shirt with (light)brown pants and Vans sneakers. It is not a trendy colour now and that's what I love! I like original stuff!
I wear absolutely anything (huh?? can I take that back?)! I too have a lot of black and it suits me but I don't like it so much anymore.
I love skirts and tight fitting cloths/tops. I also wear baggy skate pants with for instance a red, blue, yellow belt but I also own pantalons which I like the best!
*Light grey
*White
*Light blue and black are my favourites!

I love clothes, but I always try to get things on sale and that are classic styles, at least for work. I am not much into total trendy, but I am always fashionable.

I love dark suits, with a skirt that comes up above the knee. Sometimes I will wear a much shorter skirt with a long tailored blazer..it tends to be flirty, but not skanky.

Most skirts tend to be short on me anyway since I have those characteristic Saggie long legs, which was a pain on college since most of my friends were between 5'2 and 5'6" and I come in at 5' 9" / 6 foot with heels.

I also have an ample top, small waist, but shapely hips, which can be a real pain when buying jeans or certain skirts. I also like to wear business slacks with cute button down blouses and during the winter, tailored blazers.

For my off time: I love jeans, khakis, summer skirts and shorts.

Colors: Solid - black, earth tones, dark blues, reds and some pastel, I do like dark pink.

I like clothes that fit, but I hate anything tight. Then I feel all constrained and all I can think about is stripping and being freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...LOL

And when I sleep....well if it's hot, then not much at all. LOL

Fashion... hmmm... well being a man I shouldn't have much to say... but I wrote a previous post that got Internal Server Error because it was too long... Guess that says something...and I don't like the sound of it

Let's just say, I HAVE to be in style, when I shop for clothes... yes, I "shop" for clothes... I learned that an article of clothing has to "jump out at me" and say "I'm Tha Bomb, I'm Str8 Pimp Attire" and only then, will I purchase it...

I must shop alone, other people's opinions suck, whether it be a man or woman (yeah, I tend to make occasional mistakes because of the "solo" mission, but more often then not I do alright)

Although my stamina ends up fading. I HAVE to know the point of "Go Home Now!" My fashion sense starts to blur, I start to consider "okay" stuff, and catch myself asking opinions... Worst thing to do!!!

If the article of clothing doesn't say "I'm THA BOMB" to me, then it will be worn maybe once... and then sit in the back of my closet for years... and DAMMIT! I'm tired of wasting money.

I didn't really care about clothing until I started getting compliments on it, I've even had two women I dated say their interest started in me because of how I dress... then I kinda felt like, hey maybe I have style..?

I dunno, now I STRIVE for compliments, I don't "look" for them, but when someone randomly says, "That's a great..." at a party or club, in front of everyone, you just have to love it... once those comments start drying up I realize my clothes have passed their time, and it's time to have a completely new wardrobe... usually about every 2-3 yrs I donate everything to Salvation Army and start fresh.

So you are a bit perverse about reinventing yourself? LOL... Actually, I think it's a good idea for people to do that in order to discover what they are really comfortable wearing and what looks good on them.

I change my style every so often, but I usually buy things that are classics and can change depending on the accessories. I am big on jewelry and just added some turquoise peices that I bought from an Apache lady that made them and also had the best fry bread on the planet!!!

buying pants is a NIGHTMARE!!! I'm 5'10" 1/2 and I hate buying pants. Almost always have to buy them through the mail for really tall women. I didn't own a pair of jeans in the past 10 years until last month

I find most Leos to be extra particular about clothes in their attitudes-- look, and total effect.

Does anyone know if there's any sign that's the Peacock of the Zodiac?
