Zooey Loves Cotton.

About a week ago I was watching re-runs of The Real Housewives of New York City (I love to hate Kelly, but that's a whole other post) and was pleasantly surprised when I saw/heard Zooey Deschanel singing on the television.  In my mind I was like "Oh yay! I love Zooey Deschanel! And this song is so cute! And so is this commercial!"  But then reality struck.  It's a cotton commercial.  I thought it was a commercial for an album of hers or something, I don't know.  I think the commercial is adorable, but I'm not sure how I feel about Zooey lending her talents to the fabric of our lives.  I can't decide!  What do you think?

Zooey Deschanel + Oliver Peoples

Zooey Deschanel can now add "designer" to her resume, because she's designed a collection for sunglass brand Oliver Peoples.  The sunglasses bring a cute, 50s twist to the classic Ray-Ban Wayfarer, and they come in tons of colors.  I'm a fan of the clear-beige ones, although the red or tortoise shell may look better against my skin.  There's just one problem:  I have a natural aversion to Ray-Ban and Wayfarer-esque sunglasses.  Ever since I saw everyone wearing them at SXSW last year, I've decided they were too played out.  Plus, they're often too small for my face.  Either way, they're cute.  Hopefully they'll be available at Saks, which I know carries Oliver Peoples, so I can decide if they're really worth $415.
