CULTURE: What's Zo Wearing? June 3, 2007

Secret Photoshop Agent and resident Fashion Icon Zoetica often has the staff at SGHQ asking, "What's Zo Wearing?" Her unique and eccentric style is a rallying call to those who suffer from mainstream malaise. Each week, she tells us how she's combined ordinary items to create her extraordinary look. Undaunted by unusual combinations, "What's Zo Wearing" is SG's answer to middle-of-the-road makeover shows.


























It's the 30th edition of WZW, and I present you one of my recent favorite outfits -- huge shoes, five layers and a belated haircut compose this number. A fine getup for traipsing along the most radioactive, glowing hallways.

I don't have a Closeting report for you --- I've been dreadfully busy and haven't had time to properly face the issue. But I will!
I got some great advice from you all last week and I plan to milk it dry. Dry like a port town whore's teat, and I have you to thank!
On to the game-plan.

OnyxNox had a strategy that appealed to me most, and is one I will surely use. It is, as follows:

Also, redfirefairy had a good piece of advice. She gets rid of items she can't add to definite keeper pieces to make at several outfits from. So, when I lay everything out, I'll build potential outfits. I think this will be extremely helpful, as it will rule out the common excuse of "I might have something this goes with, somewhere." Unless it is, in fact amazing, and I'm willing to shop within a week to get items that will match it -- it's out.

I will have to allow myself a suitcase of costume things, because of my various modeling and performance pursuits. This part will be interesting.

It's final! I'll not allow myself to go on about anything else until this is done, done, DONE. A full report to follow.

Vest: LA Fashion District
Dress: H&M
Culottes: Forever21
Stockings: H&M
Shoes: Dollhouse, LA Fashion Distict
Bag: A rolling cart near the Tower of Piza
Armwarmers: cut-off sweater sleeves

Breathtaking as always....but whats in the vile? The necklace...?

those shoes are very Dutch High Fashion.

the suspender strap things are a neet accent, but don't they chafe or bind on the shoulders?

What lipstick/gloss are you wearing? So purty! And love your hair color and cut.

Love the Zoe.

Those are easily the most kickass shoes I've ever seen.

Woohoo! That's me!

Those shoes are incredible, and I want them sooo bad.

You look gorgeous as always!

Faithless, the word is spelled "vial". "Vile" should not be used in a sentence referencing Zoetica!

I'm going to go on record and say that I hate those shoes. A lot.

The stockings are great, though.

Oh the knickers, stockings, and shoes. In a world where I don't feel quite so complete without buying into the experience: When can I get my Zoe bobble-head?

They're like a cave painting of rollerskates.

your shoes kind of look like little sleighs for Chip N Dale

yes! I thought that very thing when i got them - videogame fighter monk!

T'was only $20, too!

I used to have those shoes.


Mean.


they suck though, mine broke after about 4 months.

i'll file these shoes under "only zoetica can pull off without looking like a retard."

Thanks! The lipgloss is by Neutrogena "Moisture Shine" it's called.

I'll be sure to be careful, in that case. no hiking in these, i guess!

Those culottes are adorable. Now I'm bummed, because the last time I was in Forever21 it seemed like they make clothes for itty-bitty girls and I could barely fit into their extra-larges! I shall have to find my short-pants elsewhere.

not only do i seriously love the hair
but i sooo seriously worship ur matching eyebrows
ur just awesome

i really love your hair like that, and those stockings are awesome!

these entries are a guilty pleasure of mine
