Welcome back to Beach Astrology! Isn’t it funny how the start of Virgo season coincides with the start of the new school year? At South Beach Place, we’re blessed with endless summers so that worker bees like Virgo have the restorative power of the ocean and the beauty of the tropics to make productivity pleasurable.

Smoldering Italian siren Sophia Loren is our featured Virgo lady. This Mercury-ruled Earth sign is gifted with an agile intellect and commitment to the work it takes to hold her ground opposite legendary leading men like Marlon Brando and Charlton Heston, so thoroughly as to establish her own legacy as an international superstar.

The keyhole halter neck and minimal white flame print of this one-piece swimsuit by Geode Swimwear adds tasteful visual interest without going over the top. The rust orange is soft enough to be a neutral and the whole thing is so cute we wanna throw a skirt or some palazzo pants over it and wear it as a top!

Virgos have a natural talent for making neutrals looks so chic and artistic. This Anthropologie jumpsuit is perfect for going from shore to shopping. Add a statement necklace and a sexy wedge and you’re dressed for date night!

TOMS, the same brand of ultra-popular and socially conscious slip-ons makes these chic cat-eye sunnies! See through the Vero sunshine clearly and comfortably through their polarized lenses. A velvety matte black frame in a modern and universally flattering cat-eye shape gets a subtle touch of earthy glam with tortoise, cream, and forest green accents.

While Tom Ford (another Virgo) may not have explicitly named this rich, sensual fragrance after the 1958 film starring Sophia Loren and Anthony Quinn (a sensitive rom-com with a misleadingly vampy title), the fashion house describes it as “an homage to worldly glamor and iconic style.” Noted. This head-turning blend pairs perfectly with the restraint of a Virgo, the only one we trust to dab on just the right amount of this potent and timelessly sexy eau de parfum. (Hint: A little goes a VERY long way. Pick up the travel size for a fraction of the price at Ulta!)
