Zooey talked to The Observer about what she knows about style.

1) I love getting dressed up and shopping, but I don’t follow trends. My style fluctuates: it’s whimsical and feminine. When I was little, I was a really girly girl who didn’t like to wear trousers. I just wore party dresses all the time with patent-leather shoes.

2) At school the kids wore hippy dresses from thrift stores, and people made their own clothes. I’ve always enjoyed wearing old-fashioned clothes. I try to do a bit of research before I travel so I know where to uncover vintage finds.

3) Know what suits you. Now I understand proportion and recognise the shapes that look good on my figure. I try to stick to classic pieces. I don’t go to a lot of fashion shows or pay attention to what other people are wearing.

4) The red-carpet thing of premieres and parties is probably my least favourite part of my job. I do this because I love to act. All that other stuff may be glamorous, but glamour, by definition, is all just a circus.

5) You don’t have to wear expensive clothes to look good. Growing up in Hollywood meant there were a lot of film stars’ kids at my school – but no conspicuous wealth. It wasn’t cool to show off that you had money.

Zooey is nominated for Best Actress In A Motion Picture, Comedy Or Musical for her role as Summer Finn in (500) Days of Summer! The award ceremony will be held on 2nd December 2009 in California. (500) Days is also nominated for Best Original Screenplay and was also named as one of the 10 Best Films Of 2009 (which I totally agree on!).
In addition to this awesome news, I have added additions to Set 007.

MTV News did an interview with Zooey & (500) Days of Summer co-star, Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Zooey talks about the release date for She & Him’s second record (in Spring) and other future projects.

MTV: You guys are here for a special reason today. We’re taking a look back at the things we’re thankful for this year, and thanks to your work individually and in “(500) Days of Summer,” you are two of the people we are most thankful for. Do you have a speech prepared?
Joseph Gordon-Levitt: Uh, no. Should I?
Zooey Deschanel: I knew to have a speech! No, I didn’t. I’m excited though.

MTV: This isn’t the first blush with success for either of you, but does 2009 feel like a particularly special year?
Gordon-Levitt: I think so. 2009 started at Sundance for me. “(500) Days of Summer” premiered there, and that was the first time everybody saw it. And a short film I made called “Sparks” played at Sundance, and then Barack Obama became president, which was one of the more cathartic, emotionally reinforcing, positive experiences I’ve really ever had. It feels like a special year.
Deschanel: It’s a very special year. It’s the end of the aughts, which is sad.
Gordon-Levitt: The end of the aughts! Thank you, I’ve been looking for the name of this decade, and I haven’t known what it was.

MTV: So, for you especially, Zooey, the aughts were essentially the decade when you came of age as an actress, when you essentially got started. Is it bittersweet to see your first decade as an actress come to an end?
Deschanel: It’s exciting. I have to say, Sundance 2001, Joe and I had to be there with “Manic.” I’ve been so lucky to work with Joe twice. Book-ending the aughts. And hopefully, it will be more frequent.
Gordon-Levitt: Into the teens. And the ’20s.
Deschanel: And the ’20s and the ’30s and ’40s and the ’50s. And we’ll live to a million by that point, because they’ll have all kinds of drugs to keep us alive.
Gordon-Levitt: Of course, because we’ll be cyborgs.

Hello everyone,
