We turn to Taurus in all its strong-headed, soft-hearted glory in this month’s instalment of our style by star sign series, which decodes your personal style according to the common traits associated with your zodiac sign

Taurus (April 20-May 20) is an Earth sign represented by the steadfast bull and ruled by Venus—resulting in some seemingly juxtaposing traits. Often dubbed as stubborn or set in their ways, they’re also patient, down-to-earth, loyal friends and partners. They are also known to be pleasure-seeking individuals who like a bit of pampering and luxury.

Gigi Hadid, Robert Pattinson and Hong Kong singer Moon Tang are examples of famous Taureans who have a relaxed yet put-together approach to dressing—often opting for casual silhouettes, cosier pieces and muted tones—and this is how to achieve that style.

1. Comfy chic

Comfort is key for many people born under the Taurus star sign and but their appreciation of the finer things in life can lead them to refine a comfortable piece with a touch of elegance.

It could be a daily uniform of elevated basics to reduce the pressures of indecision when getting dressed, or the idea of “chic comfort” can be expressed through soft and luxurious fabrics. Quilted vests, plush knits or even faux fur pieces are some of the ways to channel this style and can add a dash of complexity to an otherwise minimalistic look.

2. Earthen wear

Exude the grounded characteristics of Taurus by opting for earth tones. While warm browns, sage green and burnt orange are some first shades that come to mind, don’t shy away from the brighter colours of nature if they suit your colouring better. Printed garments in earthy tones or with floral patterns might also work well for Taureans.

3. Stealthy beauty

Those born under Taurus love a bit of pampering and one way that this can be expressed is through a regular beauty routine. Think monthly hair appointments (whether that be a trim, colour touch-up or intensive treatment), facials, lash lifts, brow tinting, waxing and whatever else one desires. This regular personal upkeep Taureans can always look put together every day in a classic, effortless manner.
