What's Zo Wearing? February 17, 2008

Secret Photography 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. Born out of the murky depths of her black hole closet,"What's Zo Wearing" is SG's answer to middle-of-the-road makeover shows.

I've been feeling sort of... understated. As understated as one can remain with cobalt blue hair and eyebrows, anyway. Seriously, it's gettin' crazy. In another effort to make some sense of my belongings I've organized my wardrobe shelves by black, grey and color. The black pile, she grows. The rest is dwindling. What could it all mean?

Peeps, I have entered another era, an era of DARKNESS. Frankly, all i want to wear these days is black. This means two things:

1. I'm looking extra-fetching; everyone knows black is the ultimate in sleek stylish goodness.
2. WZW as you know it is drawing to an end.

Yes, it's true, my dearest squids and squidlettes. I suspect you don't want to look at me decked in clouds of carbon every week, so it is time to take an indefinite break. I may return with sporadic make-up and hair tips or random news stories, and if I do find an occasion to WZW once again I shall.

What's that? Oh no, you promised you wouldn't cry! Please, I.. I can't bear it!

Well, okay. Just to ensure you know precisely what you'll be missing after this week there will be a few more all-black installments What's Zo Wearing.

Just for you, you hear? I'm doing it for you.

Um, the shoes look "fetishy" because you're in them.... love

I like the picture of you jumping... I almost wish you were next to an old Toyota doing that.

[Edit] Fuck... I dated myself, didn't I?

Personally I think it would be great to see how to put together great outfits with various articles of black clothes.

I highly approve of your descent (or ascent!) into shadowy dark-garb, but I cannot square this with your decision to take time off. The two just don't mesh! I, for one, would delight each week in seeing you foray into sartorial obtenebration, and I sigh (this is me sighing) plaintively at the very thought of you not plying your trade to my benefit. Serious bummer here. I eagerly await your return, then.

And those last two pics are priceless.

Just so you know, you could make a paper bag look stylish. It's all in how you wear it. You particularly, because you give your outfits a twist that no one else does. You excel at self-expression through clothing. Even in all mourning colors, we're still getting a glimpse at a message that's different than jeans and t-shirts.

Anyways, if the pressure to perform is getting to you, take a break man, but don't blame it on the color palette. Black would look just as fascinating on you as bumblebee. smile
