How are you shopping for the year ahead? There’s no doubt here at Who What Wear we love to inform you about all the latest trends, It items, and current must-haves to help inform your shopping choices, but today, we’re focusing on a subject I’m particularly enamored with: Shopping for your zodiac sign. With a hopeful new year in front of us, what better time to tap into our astrological sign to help us guide our choices and express our true and best selves?

To get more insight, I tapped into astrologer and visual artist Narayana Montúfar (named one of Vogue’s top 13 astrologers to follow in 2021), who teamed up with shopping app Klarna to create a guide on what to add to your closet this year according to your zodiac sign. Montúfar explains, "Twenty twenty-one will deliver the perfect opportunity to express your big, bold ideas and visions in your life, work, home, and wardrobe. Nothing will be too weird.”

Today, she’s breaking down the best colors to wear in 2021 according to our Zodiac sign so we can allow ourselves to reach our full splendor and potential. Each color recommendation is based on the planetary energy that will be affecting each one of the zodiac signs in 2021.

Take a peek below to see what the stars have in store.

"For Aries natives, 2021’s theme is acceptance, integrating, and processing all the change that took place for them in 2020. Purple, the color of spirituality, has the highest vibration so integrating more of this shade into their wardrobe will help Rams to realize their higher self and the sense of fulfillment they seek.”—Montúfar
