Fashion Forward Fridays: Zooey Collection

Made on Polyvore.

I'm sure it comes as no surprise to anyone that I love Zooey Deschanel, so when I heard she was releasing a clothing line with Tommy Hilfiger this week, I was all over it. Although the collection, to Tommy from Zooey, only allows for sizes 0-14 I am still in love and wanted to be sure to make mention of it for a Fashion Forward Fridays post. Below I've included some of my favorite pieces of this beautiful, and obviously very Zooey-inspired, collection. Think mod, Peter Pan collars, pleats and nautical themes. Zooey is calling it "modical" which, you'll see, fits the collection perfectly!

What are your favorite pieces from this collection? Oh, and if you're looking for some more fashion, head on over to Sara's blog where I am guest posting today! You should remember Sara from this year's Fashion Week, and today I'm on her blog with three looks inspired by the novel, The Fault In Our Stars, so head on over and check it out! And have a great weekend!

This is NOT a partnered/sponsored post, I just really love this collection and wanted to share it.

Golden Globe Awards 2014 Best Dressed

Although I was unable to watch the Golden Globes last night because I had to work, I of course made sure to catch the after-show specials to be able to see all the fashion. I love that there seemed to be two major trends throughout the evening of mermaid style gowns and metallic elements, both of which, I love! These lovely ladies made it into my top ten best dressed of the evening.

However, I have to say that three of them just stole the red carpet for me, Olivia Wilde, Sofia Vergara, and Mila Kunis, who I picked as my Best Dressed Female. I love Olivia Wilde and thought she looked fabulous in this tight, emerald Gucci dress, that showed off her little baby bump perfectly. I also thought that Sofia Vergara looked stunning, as usual, in her black, strapless Zac Posen dress. I appreciated that she (and/or her stylist) decided to go with a ball gown instead of her usual look of a skin-tight mermaid dress. She always looks like a knockout, but I think this dress makes her look more regal, and the pop of teal in her necklace is just the right amount of color to balance out such a large dress. However, I don't think anyone compared to my girl crush, Mila Kunis. Her stunning Gucci dress, with the mix of hard and soft elements just took my breath away. So gorgeous! Although she could have looked better if she didn't look so angry in all the pictures of her, how could you be upset in a gown that beautiful?

And a special shout out to the guys who made the red carpet interesting as well, Kunal Nayyar, Matthew McConaughey, and Best Dressed Male, Usher. I love when guys actually wear color on the red carpet instead of the typical black suit, white shirt and black tie, and these three spiced it up just enough to make the right statement.

Who were your best dressed celebrity picks from last night's Golden Globe Awards?

Who's That Girl?

Being tender and open is beautiful. 

As a woman, I feel continually shhh’ed. Too sensitive. 

Too mushy. Too wishy washy. Blah blah. 

Don’t let someone steal your tenderness. 

Don’t allow the coldness and fear of others to tarnish your perfectly vulnerable beating heart. 

Nothing is more powerful than allowing yourself to truly be affected by things. 

 Whether it’s a song, a stranger, a mountain, a rain drop, a tea kettle, an article, a sentence, a footstep, feel it all 

– look around you. All of this is for you. 

Take it and have gratitude. Give it and feel love.

— Zooey Deschanel

Just kinda feeling these words today. Zooey is one of my all time favorite women, especially in TV world. She just seems so real and someone you'd actually be able to hold a conversation with, unlike some celebrities who seem very much about themselves and about the fame. I appreciate these words from her because I feel like women are "getting shhh'ed" a lot in today's society. Like we're not allowed to be emotional now that we're playing in "a man's world." Suck it, to that. Clearly, Zooey is putting things in better sentence structure today. Hope you all are having an inspiring day and enjoying every minute. I'm heading to the 'burgh to work my last two shows of the season at the Public, today. What's on your agenda for this Thursday?
