Capricorn Style: Classic

So if anyone has even glanced at our website, you would have to be blind to not notice that we have a certain affinity for Zodiac signs.  More like an obsession, really.  The zodiac signs themselves are so beautiful but we also find the principles behind astrology to be fascinating.  Each month, we will feature the zodiac for that given period and a little style profile for how that particular sign is inclined to dress.  In addition, we will highlight a few pieces from the Rogue Vintage collection as astrological inspiration.

One reading and you will be hooked- we swear!  Tricia, being the "dark one" was sucked in immediately after reading that she likes to dress to intimidate and has a closet full of...GASP....sequined tops!  How true!  Jennings, being the "youthful and carefree" counterpart to the Rogue Vintage duo truly does prefer casual comfortable clothing in bright colors and family mementos to flashy rocks.  But more on the RV Scorpio and Sagittarius later this year....

For this month (yes, we are on the tail end of this sun sign but better late than never!) we are featuring lady Capricorn.  Born December 22nd to January 20th, this reliable woman is ruled by responsibility and hard work.  Less is usually more for this minimalist sign.  Clothing is an investment for her so she focuses on the American classics and not the latest fads.  She will stun in quality pieces that stand the test of time.
