For quite some time, I've been a fan of Zooey Deschanel. Actress, singer-songwriter, and I know, a style icon for many.
I came to fully know her in (500) Days of Summer, which was a favourite, and most recently, New Girl. I remember falling in love with New Girl when it first aired, and I was so good at watching it weekly! However, life got in the way, and I quickly fell behind. Just recently, my love for the show came back, as I caught up/re-watched all the episodes from all three seasons. Thank you Shomi Canada. If you want a show that's light-hearted, fun, comedic and adorable, I think New Girl would be a great show for you.
Zooey's sense of style and beauty has become uniquely her own and adored. In fact, her style is so coveted that it seemed like a natural step for her to have a line of her own. She collaborated with Tommy Hilfiger, last year, to release a capsule collection called From Zooey to Tommy.
All the dresses in that collection gave me hearts in my eyes. In fact, in some episodes of season 3 of New Girl, she actually wears a couple of the dresses from there. Even Taylor Swift was
seen wearing one. I remember viewing the collection, when it was first announced, and literally sighed because they were all I wanted. Here are two dresses from her collection that I can't part with in my head. Too bad it was a limited line, I wished so bad at the time I had bought that red one pictured beneath. So lovely.
Anyway, from catching up with New Girl, I knew for sure I wanted to showcase Zooey and her style on the blog. In the show, her character Jessica Day?! I want to own most (actually all) of the outfits and dresses she wears. In real life, I feel like Zooey's sense of style is the same way. Pretty, feminine, quirky but really chic and put-together.
Maybe it's because I'm now at the point where the Winter has dragged on and all I see now are pretty Spring florals and brighter colours when I'm out. What a tease! But I'm inspired and I'm looking forward for those brighter times, so, this post on Zooey is perfect after all.
So I broke it down into two parts. First round of outfits are Zooey's red carpet looks that I love (I'm super obsessed with that plaid gown!) then after the red carpet appearances, I showed you outfits she's worn on New Girl as Jess.
