The Winter Fashion Trend To Try Based On Your Zodiac Sign

It may be chilly outside, but that doesn't mean your outfits can't bring the heat. In fact, winter is actually one of the best times to curate your style, as it gets harder to pile on accessories as the weather warms up. However, cold weather can work to your advantage — you get to style everything from your winter coat to your scarf, gloves, ear muffs, and more to match your aesthetic. Whether you dress in warm knitwear or showcase holiday cheer with a number full of dazzling sequins, there are quite a few winter fashion trends to choose from. But if you're having trouble narrowing down a specific look, look at your zodiac sign for a head start — it may just be able to point you in the right direction. (Are we even surprised at this point?)

"Most people don't know they can use astrology and intuitive styling to refine their aesthetic," stylist Gabriela Rosales told Reader's Digest on the subject. "There's a lot you can learn from the stars about which styles are empowering to wear." This rings true, especially amidst seasonal changes when you may feel like your style is thrown off balance. Perhaps you even want to try out a new look that really encompasses your personality. Luckily for you, we've gathered the trending snowy season staples that will compliment your mood and help enhance your winter style.

The first sign of the zodiac, Aries are pretty much always trailblazers that are far ahead of any trend. Being an ultimate cool girl requires cool accessories, which is why a staple bomber jacket is the perfect winter weather trend for Aries to sport. Take it from the ultimate "it girls," Hailey Bieber and Emily Ratajkowski— this timeless staple is one that you absolutely want to have in your closet this winter. 

"Aries is the type to have a streamlined wardrobe of high-quality basics and statement accessories, like outerwear, shoes, bags and makeup," fashion stylist Gabriela Rosales told Reader's Digest. A bomber jacket fits right into this closet as a reusable staple that comes in a variety of different materials, ranging from silk to leather. It can also be dressed up or down depending on your style. Moreover, you can layer it over a turtleneck for some added warmth and throw on a classic red lip and some ripped jeans for the ultimate fiery look that compliments Aries' bold personality. After all, Aries is the first fire sign in the zodiac.

Taureans like Gigi Hadid and Adele reek of sophistication in the best way, which means that their outfits need to be just as put together and assertive as these savvy bulls. For wintertime, this calls for a layering classic — the sweater vest — that can elevate just about any outfit, all while making you look extra polished. This timeless knitwear is so versatile that you can invest in bright, cheery colors for the holiday season or preppy classics like a plaid print sweater vest to help you look a touch more distinguished.

"Taureans would rather splurge on one feel-good, luxurious item than several items that don't spark joy," astrologer and founder of Cosmic Latte Daniela Karpenos told Sequin of the sign's style tendencies. This is why opting for a few quality sweater vests made of real wool, for instance, can make them feel much more glamorous than a dozen sparkly outfits. As an earth sign, Taureans also shine bright in earthy colors like brown and green, so a classic sweater vest in these neutral colors will always help them feel warm and cozy — even in the cold. You can dress up the sweater vest by layering it over a collared shirt and pairing it with some corduroys and comfy winter boots for a complete and comfy look.

The cold can never dull a Gemini's shine. "For the Gemini, style is the very essence of who they are," professional astrology twins Tali and Ophira Edut told Glamour of the sign's key traits. So, a lively trend like metallic pants is an absolute must for this sign this winter. After all, Gemini's exuberance and bold personality should be seen not only through its non-stop chatter but also through its bold and flashy 'fits.

Though it may seem like an over-the-top item, a pair of glossy metallic pants can be the perfect Christmas party or New Year's Eve attire. You can opt for cargo-style metallic pants paired with a basic tee for a laidback look, or you can elevate the outfit with a cashmere sweater and a chic overcoat to add some extra sparkle that will help you be the center of attention in every room. Geminis can also embrace metallic gold or even canary yellow pants and coordinate it with an embellished pearl top or bejeweled cardigan. If there's any trend that can fully encompass Gemini's full-of-life personality, it's this one.

Staying true to their cozy and nurturing spirit, Cancers thrive in oversized sweaters as soon as winter hits. The universal truth about these crabs is that they love to bundle up and remain cozy whether going ice skating with friends or curling up in front of the fireplace at home — and let's face it: Knowing their wallflower nature, it'll probably be the latter.

Just because Cancers love to be comfortable doesn't mean their wardrobe has to be dull, though. As luck would have it, oversized everything is exactly what's in vogue in recent years. In fact, celebrities like Kendall Jenner have been spotted rocking oversized sweaters, which can only mean that they're a hot "it girl" item to have. This means that the long, striking turtleneck in your closet may be completely on-trend, after all.

Now, the key to making oversized sweaters look stylish — not frumpy — is making their larger size look somewhat unintentional, which you can accomplish by playing with dimensions. For example, pair a long sweater with a miniskirt or play with patterns to spice up your outfit by styling a neutral oversized sweater with fun patterned pants. "No one loves a bargain more than a Cancer," astrology twins Tali and Ophira Edut told Glamour. So, thrifting for your oversized sweaters can also be a great way to build a comfy closet collection that is a total steal. 

Represented by the bold and confident lion, Leos always sparkle."They are not afraid to make bold fashion choices and stand out from the rest of the crowd," Bri Luna, astrologer and founder of The Hoodwitch, told InStyle on how Leos assemble outfits. Now, try to name a better way to bask in the limelight than by decking yourself out in some holiday sparkles.

Around the globe, sparkles have made the ultimate comeback on and off the runways, with a surging nod to '60s and disco attire. If you're wondering just how to hop on the trend the right way, then we have a tip for you Leos, and it all boils down to one word: moderation. Of course, there's no right or wrong way to wear sparkles. However, it can be extremely tasteful — and actually help you stand out in an even more fashionable way — to apply moderation to your outfits. This is why choosing a statement piece like your favorite sparkly top and pairing it with a trendy satin skirt is a classy and glamorous move. Similarly, let sparkly pants have their standout moment by pairing them with a neutral blazer and dainty accessories. This way, you remain a fashionista and not an eyesore.

One thing about Virgos is that their standards are always high — as they should be. "They're the perfectionists of the Zodiac," astrologer Renée Watt told USA Today of the sign's characteristics. Naturally, this means that their outfits lean toward perfectionism, too. What better way is there to accomplish this than by utilizing ribbons, which never seem to go out of style and have celebrities and runway models alike in a chokehold? 

With hair ribbons twisted into little bows — of course, in colors that perfectly complement their outfits — Virgos can feel satisfied that they've left no detail unattended to when styling their outfits. Plus, the holiday season is the perfect time to don these ribbons, as they effortlessly match the season's cheer. (You're the gift, not the boxes under the tree!) Moreover, you can flaunt ribbons in many ways regardless of your hair length, including tying off your braids, positioning them on top of your ponytail, or even flaunting a half-up, half-down look connected with one.

Good news: If hair ribbons aren't your cup of tea, there's more than one way to incorporate ribbons into your everyday wardrobe. From wearing ribbon necklaces to working a sleek ribbon into a collared shirt, you can flaunt this style in your hair, clothing, or both.

Wide-legged, baggy trousers are a special trend that requires some work to pull off. It takes intricate balance to master the look — something Libras are experts at. After all, they strive for symmetry in all areas of their life, including their clothes. This means balancing a baggy item with tighter-fitting clothing like a corsetted crop top and a loose jacket that helps break up the flow of their loose-fitting bottoms while still maintaining evenness. 

What's more, Gen Z loves all things baggy, so we're not limited to wide-legged jeans for bottoms. Libras can rejoice in this baggy trend with neutral baggy trousers and cropped knit sweaters this winter season to give off the ultimate cool girl vibes.

"Libras like to definitely make a statement with some of the items that they're wearing, but [sometimes] you have to look for it," astrologer Lisa Stardust told InStyle of the sign. A baggy trouser can definitely do the trick as long as its flare or bagginess is subtle and balanced out on top for our symmetrical Libras. For a subtle flare, try sizing your trousers up a size or two higher than your normal size. You can also add a thin, sleek belt to complement the pants. A pleated baggy trouser would look especially perfect this holiday season, and you can complete the look with a fitted cropped turtleneck and some chunky ankle boots.

Leather never truly goes out of style, and for the mysterious Scorpio that loves timeless garments, this trend is like wearing a uniform they love (not the school ones everyone hates). In fact, "there's nothing a Scorpio loves more than having a signature look," astrologer Roya Buckland told Reader's Digest of the sign. Because Scorpios don't like to stray too far from their aesthetic, which is rather dark and moody, minor tweaks like opting for a red leather jacket instead of the usual black leather jacket could help elevate their outfits on the daily. 

It's all in the details, so Scorpio should have fun experimenting with the accessories they pair with their jackets. Furthermore, to take full advantage of the leather jacket trend, Scorpios could dabble with the texture and pattern of their leather jackets. Fur trim can add extra warmth to a classic leather jacket, while roses or abstract symbols can add creativity. Any extras you add or look for can be entirely tailored to your personality and aesthetic. 

Your leather jackets also don't have to be reserved for a fun night out. Instead, they can serve as work or business-casual staples as long as you opt for the right design, like a longline leather jacket that can take the place of a traditional blazer.

Labeled the biggest bohemian of the zodiac, Sagittarius should incorporate florals in their wardrobe throughout the entire year. Of course, for winter, dark florals are all the rage, and Sagittarians definitely know this. But rather than just sticking to black and dark blue florals, you also can re-wear your warm-weather floral tops and flowy flower maxis by incorporating a few simple accessories to make them more appropriate for winter. "Any floral dress can be paired with fishnet stockings, chunky boots and statement jewelry to transition the florals from cute to cool," senior fashion editor Maria Barsoum explained for Vogue Scandinavia. "It's all about contrasts." Even cool, sparkly eyeshadow, darker blush, and a red or brown lip can help complement your wintertime floral attire, bringing your entire look together.

Of all the signs, Sagittarius can do this trend the most justice because their free-spirited nature bleeds into their eccentric style and lets them take fun fashion risks. This allows them to mix and match different patterns and fabrics and experiment with items like non-traditional florals to create a look all their own.

Ah, Capricorn: the dependable zodiac sign that never misses a beat. Capricorn's stability needs to be represented in their stylistic choices through items that can weather any storm and be dressed up or down. Queue the classic wool coat that Capricorns can style for any occasion. "I love how versatile, timeless, and chic a wool coat is—it's not a micro-trend that you'll regret adding to your closet," fashion stylist Audree Kate López told Byrdie of the evergreen winter staple.

One thing about Capricorns is that they stick to items that will never go out of fashion. This is why a classic double-breasted wool coat in a neutral color like beige, brown, or black can be a great choice for them every winter. Typically, longer wool coats are easy to style, as they give you an elongated silhouette and pair well with all pants, skirts, and dresses, regardless of their hemline. You can also add a statement belt to give your coat more shape and highlight your figure. With these tips, Capricorns can quickly take control of any room they enter.

Aquarius is a vagabond sign; it moves where it needs to, and it's always going to make a scene in the process. "In Aquarius' world, it is more valuable to be different rather than to blend in with the crowd," astrologer Kesaine Walker told USA Today of this air sign. In fact, you can count on the trend-setting Aquarius to always have a statement piece ready to turn heads. This is why Aquarians should add fashionable faux fur hats to their outfits; these hats will bring extra glamour, and they can be retrieved from their closets every winter as a perennial favorite. 

What's more, these hats are bound to keep you warm even in ultra-freezing temperatures, a key characteristic that the rather practical Aquarius should be delighted by. Plus, the hats' unique appearance will make this air sign stand out and, because Aquarians love to showcase their individuality, they'll highly appreciate the fashion-forward trend.

When choosing a faux fur hat, opt for bright colors and patterns that highlight your sign's creativity — don't shy away from a neon hat that can make, for instance, your monochromatic outfit stand out. You can also go for a trusty neutral black to add a sleek and mysterious look to your outfits. If you're feeling daring, which Aquarians typically are, try pushing the envelope with a leopard print hat, which will undoubtedly add some extra excitement to your outfit. 

Pisces make everyone around them feel warm and cared for, which is why a fabulous cardigan should be their go-to trendy item in the winter. After all, who doesn't love a cozy, comforting cardigan, especially after Taylor Swift made everyone fall even more in love with them? "Pisces are known for being the most sensitive sign of the zodiac," astrologer Kesaine Walker told USA Today of these gentle souls. As such, a loveable cardigan embroidered with a fun pattern like strawberries can best reflect their creative and soft interior.

Since a cardigan is so versatile, Pisces can mix and match bright and bold cardigans with subtle jeans for a laidback look or dress them up over a minidress for a night out. They can also experiment with the print of the cardigan. A rainbow-printed cardigan, for instance, can showcase this sweet sign's whimsy, while a heart-printed cardigan can reflect this softie's big heart. Plus, since a printed cardigan already brings some extra shine to outfits, Pisces can put aside their self-doubting nature and feel the confidence they require to truly sparkle.
