"I brake for birds. I rock a lot of polka dots. I have touched glitter in the last 24 hours. I spend my entire day talking to children and I find it fundamentally strange that you're not a dessert person. That's just weird and it freaks me out! And I'm sorry I don't talk like Murphy Brown and I hate your pantsuit. I wish it had ribbons on it or something to make it just slightly cuter. And that doesn't mean I'm not smart and tough and strong!"I adored Jess Day's impassioned defense of girliness speech on New Girl. It's one of the many reasons I'm glued to the TV every Tuesday night. Another reason is Jess' fashion - a quirky mix of bright colours and bold prints from Anthropologie, Zara, Asos, H&M, J.Crew, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Shoshanna and ModCloth, among many others. I am truly besotted by her feminine and vintage-esque style.
One of my favourite pieces from the show is the alluring Kate Spade New York "Cherie" coat in Snapdragon, which made an appearance on last night's episode (and during the Christmas episode).
I am officially obsessed with finding this no-longer available coat. Many of you are probably already wearing your new spring duds (lucky!) but I'm still up to my knee caps in snow, and can see myself battling windchills and frostbite ever so stylishly in this hot pink flannel number.

Do you watch New Girl? The next nine episodes are all new, which makes me a very happy lady.
Hope your Wednesday is all kinds of fabulous!
Dajana (:
Love this coat! Eek...so fun. I can't wait for spring-type weather so I can get rid of my dreary winter one!
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to tune in to an epi. of New Girl, but have yet to do so. Perhaps I'll have to make time for it ;)
I'm with you, Amy. Hurry up and get here spring! (:
DeleteI hope you do watch New Girl - it's such a fun half-hour of television and I think you'll really enjoy it.
I love Zoey's style and the show is HIlarious. I'm a big fan.
ReplyDeleteI love her style, too - so cute! And the show is Hilary'ous! (;
DeleteThat is a beautiful coat! Maybe one will pop up on ebay or something.
ReplyDeleteYes, I love New Girl! I wasn't so sure about it after the first episode or two, but now I'm hooked! Zoey has great style(and she lives here in Portland)!
It's gorgeous, isn't it, Kristin? My winter coats are all dark and neutral - not a bright colour to be found. This would add a much needed electric jolt to my closet.
DeleteI didn't know ZD lived in Portland. That makes me like her even more. My husband and I travelled to Portland about ten years ago for my friend's wedding reception. We fell in love with the city and its people. Everyone is so chill and down to earth. Much like us Canadians. (;
Ohhh, YAY! How cool that we have that in common! I love all things New Girl, especially Jess with her quircky, zany ways and adorable clothes. =)

We both like pho and we both like New Girl! Double YAY! (:
DeleteVery cute pink coat! I love New Girl, that whole show is just hilarious, especially Zooey.

I am such a fan of pink, these days. I remember when my wardrobe consisted of only black (and other neutrals). SO glad I grew out of that phase. (:
Deletep.s. Zooey Deschanel is the cutest!
Ps. Happy International Women's Day to you. To celebrate you and your fabulous blog, I tagged you in a blogger's game of tag. If you're interested in playing along - and no pressure - feel free to check out my post from today for details! xo
ReplyDeleteYou are a doll - thank you, Amy! (:
DeleteSretan Osmi Mart! That's how we say "Happy International Women's Day" in Croatian.
I've only seen the show once but it was pretty darn funny. The coat is ah-mazing!! I love anything pink and this is the perfect length for me. Really, does Kate Spade do anything that I don't adore?
ReplyDeleteI'm a lover of pink, too. Have you checked out the Kate Spade spring collection? It's all kinds of fabulousness!
DeleteAhhh, I LOVED that girly speech she gave!! I wanted to stand up and cheer for glitter polka dots and cuteness!!
ReplyDeleteThat pink coat is beyond adorable, I think you need to start stalking eBay.
The girly speech was the best, especially the last bit she said right before she marched off (in the wrong direction).
Delete"And my cheques have baby farm animals on them, bitch!"
Haha!
I love that coat too, and that little rant she gave to Miss Pantsuit, lol.
ReplyDeleteDid you know that Zoey is on Instagram??
P
Miss. Pantsuit - funny! (:
DeleteI have got to sign up for Instagram. Such a procrastinator, I am.
I catch random episodes of it now and then - I think I'd watch it more regularly, but the timing is hard for me, and I just haven't remembered to add it to my DVR. I think I'll try to do that this weekend.
ReplyDeleteLove the coat. :) And I also loved that defense of quirky-woman-girl speech.
You won't regret adding it to your DVR schedule, Carol! The writing is witty and funny. Although I started watching the show because of Zooey D., I'm starting to really enjoy Schmidt. He's a scene stealer.
ReplyDeleteSchmidt: Can someone please get my towel? It's in my room next to my Irish walking cape! (:
