Capture the shapeshifting style of the Mercury-ruled zodiac sign with inspiration from these Gemini celebrities
It is as tricky to pin down a Gemini’s style as it is to define their personality: both are constantly changing. But that’s just the nature of folks born under the zodiac sign of the twins. Ruled by the planet Mercury, Geminis tend to be, well, mercurial, and that is seen in the many surprising outfit choices they make. Gemini celebrities like Marilyn Monroe and Angelina Jolie were at one point celebrated as sex symbols in Hollywood, but the two actresses have also shown a penchant for polished, unassuming ensembles that may be unexpected for their glamorous image.
Besides being fashion chameleons (see Lynn Ban, for example), Geminis also have a thing for twinning. That may call for matching outfits with their stylish companion, or, in the case of the Olsen twins, with their stylish sister. The bottom line? Geminis will always keep you guessing, and that can only mean fun when it comes to fashion.

Dress for a speech
Geminis, being ruled by the planet of communication that is Mercury, tend to be a chatty bunch. They will take any opportunity to showcase their wit, spark debates and go on monologues. Geminis love an audience, which makes them the perfect public speakers, as is the case of Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie. Even before becoming a special envoy for the United Nations, Jolie was already known for speaking her mind in interviews. When working with the UN, the activist frequently gave speeches to amplify humanitarian causes like promoting women’s rights, advocating for refugees and ending poverty. Unsurprisingly, Jolie now has the smart casual look down pat from all that practice: she favours a well-fitted blazer, a sophisticated dress, and a palette of neutral colours when projecting confidence and authority.
