Aries (March 21 - April 19) If you're someone who appreciates the soft sell, stop a salesperson in her tracks before you feel trapped by her endless monologue. Believe it or not, she'll appreciate your honesty and you'll get to shop in peace.
Taurus (April 20 - May 20) Instead of a night out with your friends, have a night in with a long-distance pal. You can catch up while you deep condition your hair and trim your nails -- talk about killing two birds with one pumice stone!
Gemini (May 21 - June 21) You're generous to a fault, so when your best friend asks to borrow your favorite necklace or a brand-new lip gloss, you tell her no problem. Just make sure you get them back at the end of the day or else!
Cancer (June 22 - July 22) Emotional experiences might be overwhelming, so give 'em a proper outlet: Go for a long run, speak with a good friend or get a deep tissue massage. And be wary of any situations that could trigger an excess of feeling.
Leo (July 23 - August 22) Explore a store, catalogue or website you normally eschew. Even if you know you like classics and tailored separates, check out a cheap and cheerful chain store just to see what you might find.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22) The same old style choices will just make you feel, well, old. You can attract what you want in your life by first figuring out what you don't want. It's time to let go of looks and clothes that don't suit you anymore.
Libra (September 23 - October 22) This salon is supposed to be famous for its eyebrow shaping, but when you look through their portfolio, you notice that all its clients end up with the same shape. If it doesn't suit you, cancel your appointment.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21) Get yourself out of a rut inch by inch. Always use the treadmill at the gym? Try the elliptical. Even if you can't figure out the controls at first, your attempts will make you laugh (and maybe help you meet a new pal).
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21) Simplify your beauty routine by identifying the items that are your top priorities. If you have some discolorations you want to cover but pretty dry skin, you can probably just use concealer and skip powder.
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19) What's the point of buying a great pair of shoes if you don't know how to wear them to maximum effect? In other words, even if you're strictly devoted to pants and jeans, it might be time to put on a skirt.
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18) Remember that if you're on a treadmill at the gym, it's bad policy to race your neighbor. If you find that your competitive spirit comes out no matter what, think about signing up for a marathon or a team sport.
Pisces (February 19 - March 20) You don't need very much to make it look like you've spent a lot on a special occasion. Strategically placed tea lights or some other kind of lighting, good music and the right company go a very long way.
