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.











Andrew, the official photographer for this column, was busy fighting crime this week, so you get these fantastic self shot myspace style photos. Aren't they amazing? Marvel, damn you!

Last weekend i was sucked into the unspeakable void, the magnetic drainer of wallets - Forever 21. Once i feared it, weak before its seemingly endless selection, confused by eternal isles and shelves, dizzied by the bad techno. But no more! When entering such a hostile environment it's important to have a plan. You will need:

- a budget
- a list of what you actually need
- a list of you absolutely under no conditions need
- to try everything on before bying

This leaves little wiggle room for impulse buys and poor decisions. Thoughtful choices will be made and you'll go home beaming with self-satisfaction. Trust me.
