With so many décor choices out there, trying to choose your personal style can seem very overwhelming. Each of us has our own preferences that speak to our unique personality. By the time you zero in on one particular theme, something quite different can take your fancy! Feels familiar? Well, we can help!
An easy way to narrow down your choices is to style your home according to your Zodiac sign. Sounds implausible? If you’ve ever read Linda Goodman’s Sun Signs, you’ll know that your Zodiac sign—which is dictated by the date and month you were born in— actually does reveal quite a lot about who you are and what you like to do! Each of the 12 signs is said to have its own distinct traits, and you might be surprised to find that yours is spot on—which means that a home based on your Zodiac sign could just be your perfect place!
Leo: The Sign of the Lion
If you’re born between July 23rd and August 22nd, you’re a Leo! Leo is represented by the lion, and this fire sign is a born leader. As the kings and queens of the Zodiac jungle, these lions are powerful and confident, and can charm anyone and anything into meek submission. Leos are energetic, flamboyant and theatrical, and love to shine under the spotlight. The life of a Leo is a joyful celebration—they celebrate themselves, and all that they stand for!
So, if this sounds like you, how should you decorate your home? Here are some suggestions that every Leo should hold close to their heart while they do up their homes.
#1. Go Bold!
A Lion is nothing if not feisty, so bring it on! Vibrant colours, attention-grabbing prints and patterns that pack a punch are all right up the Leo’s alley. Your home should shine bold and bright, as that’s who you are.
Never shy away from daring to be different. A statement rug in strong, eye-catching chevron stripes is just right for the Leo in you!
#2. Let the Sunlight Stream In
Lions love to bask in the sun, and just can’t get enough of it! Your home should have large windows that let the sunlight stream in. The lighting in your home can make or break the ambience of the space. Find unique ways to brighten and lighten up your home, so that you can dazzle in the spotlight that you so richly deserve!
Make your décor shine in the evenings with extravagant chandeliers, glitzy metallic lampshades and oversized globe lamps.
#3. Infuse Warmth with Fiery Colours
Leo is a fire sign, and your go-to colour is orange. Your décor should be as vivid and vibrant as you are, soaking in the warmth of your radiance. Rich, saturated shades on the warm end of the spectrum are must-haves in your home.
Splurge on orange in all its vagaries, from zesty tangerine walls to gorgeous marigolds in a brass vase. This sunshine-drenched living room is just right for a royal.
#4. Embrace Metallics
Your tastes run to the elegant and sophisticated, and opulence is just where you’re at. Adding the gleam of metallic accents into your home is a lovely way to enhance the décor. Give your home the Midas touch with the glitter of gold, silver or brass, and instantly elevate the ambience!
Here, the silver centre table takes centre stage, while the silver lines running through the rug and drapes add to the glamour. A shining metallic wall to one side of the space completes the royal look.
#5. The Old and the New
As a Leo, you have a fine appreciation of your past, and love to highlight your history and the rich traditions of your family. You love to showcase where you’ve come from and trace the path to your roots. Period pieces and antique treasures that reflect your beginnings will always hold a special place in your heart, and will get pride of place in your home!
