Astrology-inspired fall style

by Jessica Hulett

With the recession still going strong, most of us can't stock our fall wardrobe with the drool-worthy fashions seen on Gossip Girl and 90210. Fortunately, the places where the rest of us shop have gotten hip to the latest trends! Look to your zodiac sign to find out which fads will up your style quotient this fall.

Aries (March 21 to April 19)
Aries sign rules the head, which is why they dig hats in a major way. Luckily, the hottest and hippest looks for this fall season feature an adorned head -- everything from beanies to fedoras. For the active Ram who prefers to forego the headgear, sporty styles are also making a huge splash.

Taurus (April 20 to May 20)
Bulls keep it simple when it comes to clothes, preferring to stock up on basics. Their style comes through in the details, and as Taurus rules the throat, necklaces and scarves are always flattering. To keep it trendy, this sign should opt for accessories in subdued fall hues, or they can mix it up with plaid or neon.

Gemini (May 21 to June 20)
Gemini loves patterns, and the one making the biggest statement this season is plaid. To revive the grunge style of the 90s, guys can rock the flannel shirt (optional Nirvana tee underneath), while the girls can keep it feminine in a plaid miniskirt and boots.

Cancer (June 21 to July 22)
Cancers will love the return of the grunge trend -- it's full of soft, comfy fabrics! Flannel shirts, cashmere sweaters and cotton hoodies will keep Crabs warm and cozy when the temperatures start to drop. The fact that they're ahead of the latest trend will just be an added bonus. 

Leo (July 23 to Aug. 22)
Leos like to be the center of attention, and the glam trend this season gives them the opportunity to shine -- literally. Sequins, metallics and glitter will make them sparkle like the stars they are. Another hot trend -- animal prints -- will get them in touch with their wild nature.

Virgo (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)
You'll never see a Virgo rocking a head-to-toe trend, especially one that promises to be no more than a passing fad. This sign is more likely to get behind styles that have staying power, like the still-hot skinny jeans, fitted jackets, asymmetrical tops and draped shirts.
