The muses of fashion sing again as we enter spring here in Angel City. To celebrate the turning of the tides agent Yoon and I had ourselves a little roadside picnic near the ever-fragrant LA River.
For this momentous occasion I picked a simple knit dress, leggings and high heels with steel-plated toes - a sensible choice should one need to escape the local packs of roaming hobos on foot. In daylight hours these [equally fragrant] folks keep to dark shelters under bridges, with only glowing eyes indicating their whereabouts. Still, one can never be too careful when choosing footwear.
Eyes: my usual cobalt eyebrows in a Ben Nye shadow, a hint of drugstore iridescent green shadow on the eyelids to echo the shoes, liquid liner, Urban Decay “Heavy Metal” glitter highlights
Skin: Pür mineral powder
Lips: Nyx coral lip gloss
Nails: NYC enamel in Times Square Tangerine Creme
Dress: Final Touch $30 at Angel on Melrose Ave
Leggings: H&M
Bag: shop near Asakuza Temple, Tokyo
Gloves: Harajuku, Tokyo
Shoes: Naughty Monkey $30 on Amazon

As I have said before and will probably say again, I wish more people in this world posessed a mere modicum of your sense of style.

Excellent choices on this outfit. Great photography; the graffiti works well in contrast with the look.

Full agreement with Adarael.
April 13th, 2008 at 5:54 am
…and saba.

Oh, look, look, make-up! Huzzah indeed! I adore the leggings-with-heels look and whole-heartedly agree with Adarael–if people put more energy into looking this lovely, the world would probably be a much better place.

WHOO!!!
Is this going to be a regular sunday installment, like WZW, or more spur of the moment?
Either way, whoo hoo! (Again…)
April 13th, 2008 at 8:32 am
i lurve naughty monkey shoes….just can’t ever find them in my size. sigh
April 13th, 2008 at 11:02 am
Yay!! I missed What’s Zo Wearing! But I love the new title even more! You have the BEST style; it’s uber inspiring. And Andrew Yoon’s photography rocks. You guys are an awesome team. <3
April 13th, 2008 at 12:32 pm
Aaaaaaaaaaaaw!!! So great to see you back!
April 13th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
Thank you all so much for the warm welcome back to the column. This will be most likely bi-weekly with other shenanigans in between, as time allows.
April 13th, 2008 at 3:21 pm
Thank you Saba, Geraldine, and everyone else!
Likewise, both Zoe and I have missed doing these.
April 13th, 2008 at 8:31 pm
As always, you look awesome. Nice photography.
April 13th, 2008 at 11:21 pm
Ah, a return to the creative fun of Zo’s endless wardrobe. Though the backdrops are equally as entertaining.
Again though…the shoes. For a guy without a shoe fetish you certainly make an excellent argument to acquire one.
To Mr. Yoon….excellent images as always. I hope a book comes out of all of these shoots one day.

I actually had a dream about those shoes last night. So wrong. But they are all kinds of awesome.
April 14th, 2008 at 7:30 am
Yes, the infiltration of the mind has begun.
April 14th, 2008 at 8:44 am
what can I say to this blue, grey and black hotness?! only that I want those shoes? ;)
April 17th, 2008 at 6:31 am
Beautiful! Also, I lLOVE the location.
May 4th, 2008 at 12:18 am
[...] - on Friday we managed to sneak a mini-shoot at a nearby café, possibly for a new edition of Zo! Style Techinican. Can’t wait to see the rest, especially considering he shot mostly [...]

this might be a little late but what brand of hair dye is that?… it’s freaking awesome….
May 25th, 2008 at 9:18 am
@Ladyluxe - I use Special Effects brand - Blue Velvet, often mixed with other shades of blue.
May 26th, 2008 at 2:18 am
I like how the ben nye shadow shows up as eyebrows, I’m assuming u apply it wet.. anyway, what shade is it called?

you are always able to pull off styles that most people make look so ridiculous.
