1. Strike a pose at the Museum of Fine Arts’ newest exhibition
Leos live for aesthetics. Take your bestie to MFAH for the latest blockbuster exhibit and let them get those golden-hour selfies in front of something dramatic and priceless. Bonus points if they wear statement sunglasses indoors.
2. Sunday brunch with bottomless mimosas
You know Leos love a little luxury, or a lot. Head to spots like Bosscat Kitchen, State of Grace or Traveler’s Table where the vibes are high, the décor is photogenic, and the eggs come with a side of fabulous.
3. Take over a karaoke room
Leos were born to perform. Rent a private karaoke room at places like Spotlight Karaoke or Kung Fu Saloon and let them channel their inner Beyoncé. Just make sure you don’t hog the mic. It’s their season.
4. Go thrifting for bold Leo-approved looks
Hit up Pavement, Leopard Lounge (on brand, hello) or The Cottage Shop in Montrose. Leos gravitate toward statement pieces and eye-catching fits. Let them style you. It’s a gift to bask in their fashion wisdom.
5. Catch an outdoor event at Discovery Green
There’s nothing like a warm Houston night under the stars, especially when live music or a movie screening is involved. Pack snacks, bring a blanket and let your Leo shine like the constellation they were born under.
6. Celebrate with cake and drama at Tout Suite
Every Leo deserves a dramatic dessert moment. Whether it’s a sky-high slice of cake or an over-the-top macaron tower, give your bestie the chance to say, “Yes, I do deserve this.”
7. Book a sunset cruise on Buffalo Bayou
For the Leo who wants romance, beauty and a hint of mystery, surprise them with a private boat tour through downtown’s glittering waterways. Leo vibes mean main character at all times.
8. Plan a themed photo shoot in front of Houston murals
Street art is a Leo magnet. Plan a mural crawl in EADO or Midtown and let your bestie shine against the city’s most Instagrammable backdrops. Coordinate outfits, bring a ring light and go full Leo.
9. Cool down at a rooftop pool
Leos are ruled by the Sun, but even they need a glamorous cooldown. Book a pool day at Marriot Marquis’ Texas-shaped lazy river or a rooftop spot like the Laura Hotel. Poolside pics required.
10. Throw them a surprise party they low-key expected
Leos pretend to hate surprises, but trust me, they’re already picturing the party in their head. Gather their inner circle, pick a fun theme (Old Hollywood, disco fever, golden glam?) and let your Leo reign.
