STYLED FOR STABILITY

They want order. Dress a certain way and other people will give you exactly that.

• Tranquility and calm provide a sense of stability and security for those around them.
• Harboring a deep desire for order, of familiar routines, they find solace in the predictable rhythms of daily life.
• They often have carefully curated personal spaces serving as a refuge from the chaos of the outside world — a trait their wardrobe should mirror.
• Notably, however, is that their aversion to change leads to feelings of resistance, especially when faced with the need for personal growth and evolution.
  

THE GOAL

Create an adapting silhouette for new situations to provide instant comfort and calm anxious nerves.

• Ensembles are layered, adaptable, making ROUTINE SHIFTS painless. ‍
• Eliminate all unnecessary distractions with clean, minimalist silhouettes.
• Emphasize appreciate for quality and comfort with Scandinavian Design inspired timeless elegance.
• Start with earth tones, neutrals, moving to muted, calming palettes. ‍
• Prioritize comfort textiles, add texture that invites touch to provide security and warmth. ‍
• Streamline accessories, seek simple, well-crafted sleek leather goods.
• Pieces should mix easily, making putting together looks on the fly, in transition, simple.
• Add subtle personal touches to finish things off with a sentimental vibe.  

COMFORT, TOO COMFORTABLE

Season In Review

Overview

• The Sanctuary types are faced with challenge this season.
• Their constant simplicity shifts into awareness that they must step out of their comfort zone.
• At the core, we're creatures of habit that find solace in predictable rhythms and the security of well-trodden paths. It feels safe.

Early Summer

• ‍Rolling tranquil into the season, order maintained, there is a strong grounded feeling.
• Saturn works with Venus to provide this, but they have an ulterior motive.
• ‍Internal tension builds as the energy slowly nudges towards a need for personal growth.

Mid Summer

• Feelings and behavior shift a bit mid-season thanks to Venus vibing with Mercury in Virgo.
• The tension turns to unexpected craving, desire even, to embrace change.
• A period of introspection leads to opportunity to refine routine and surroundings.
• Awareness builds that we must balance our desires for stability with evolution.

Late Summer

• Later Sanctuary has become fully dedicated to the idea.
• Saturn now faces the sun, begging our ego to build new structure — and then our peaceful and organized environment blossoms.
• Embracing the natural ability to provide support that grounds themselves and others, Sanctuary learns the balance they desire and even grows aware of benefits of change.
