Emily and Zooey at 500 Days of Summer Premiere

Emily needs to borrow Zooey's dress. It would look better on her. IMO

Zooey's dress is really pretty.

When is it being released anyway? I've yet to see any trailers or promos or anything.

I agree Z's dress would look stunning on Em, especially since she's a bit bigger in the bustline - the dress would hang on her like it was meant for her. Still what I love about this pic is Em's wearing a beautiful dress!

It's almost perfect, the color (basic black is a classic for a reason), the length, the fit, the neckline (okay so she went bateau without the drop back but still bateau is very flattering for her especially with her hair up like that). They both look simply stunning, although you can tell that Em's the older sister - it's not an age thing, she just has that older sister vibe standing next to Z.

I do declare I might have the vapors...or at the very least some interesting dreams about a Z and E sammich now.

thanks for the insight into your twisted male mind Bobby Boo!!

I LOVE that shade of BLUE on Zoey AND she is a bit tan so it plays off her skin tone do you all think that maybe the back of Emily's dress was a bit lower than the neckline? still it fits her wonderfully and it shows of her legs!

Anytime Turi, though I gotta say it's not like there's an untwisted male mind out there somewhere.

I think the blue works for Z, but I'm not loving the neckline for her - it plunges a bit too much, IMO.

Re: Em's dress. It looks like a classic bateau neck so the back and front are roughly symetrical, meaning it doesn't dip any lower than the front. I wish it would though. In fact if they widened the neck by an inch in either direction then did a drop-back scoop and removed the vestigial sleeves it'd be one sexy number.

THX, you start talking like that and I think you're one of those aliens off Star Trek or Star Wars or something!

I love Zooey's dress, but what I noticed most of all when I looked at the pic was how much different she looks with bangs. She almost looks more like Emily than she looks like Zooey!!

Trust me I know what you mean. I know entirely too much about women's fashion. In fact I'm feeling the need to butch up, so I think I'll get out my beer hat, grab my favorite graphic novel, and pop in a copy of GGW Island Adventures to see if I can spot the future ex-mrs THX.


RM

Uh.... Again with a horrible dress. I mean really i you're going to wear black, get a tan. Not that she isn't pretty with her fair skin, it just REALLY sticks out in a short black dress. I think something without sleeves would be good. Like a strapless or a thin strap, or even a one strap.

Oh I'm crushed now El, we so disagree on this one. Firts it's not a horrible dress, it's fitted, it's the right length, and black looks good on her - the blue would have been better, yes, but black is classic. Now we agree on the sleeves and I agree that a thin strap (not a one strap, at least not with a cocktail dress) would look ideal, but the dress is far from horrible. I don't for a second feel like asking her if she got it at TJ Maxx, that's the mark of a horrible dress.

Thought I'd let you know you've got another 10¢ in your Google royalty check this month, courtesy of yours truly.

First nickel ...
Why I couldn't figure out "GGW" from the context of your post is beyond me. I'm slipping!

Second nickel ...
Definitions for "butch up" ...
1. markedly or aggressively masculine.
2. a lesbian who is noticeably masculine.
3. a strong rugged man.
I only thought the lesbian masculinity usage would have been correct so I wondered, but you're usage is correct. (Which is it though? Markedly or aggressively masculine - or - a strong rugged man?)

I could keep going believe me, but I'd hate to keep you from your bathtime with your li'l rubber duckie!

heh, we could just chalk that up to you being innocent but I've read your smut fic so we both know that's not the case!

First I'm shocked, shocked I say, that you would have any doubts as to my verbal sagacity, but I guess it's understandable since the term has become more commonly associated with sapphists over the years (and though one could make the case that I'm just a lesbian in a man's body, one won't). I definitely meant #1, since the intent is to become or be perceived as markedly masculine. #3 is, IMO, more literally accurate since I am a strong rugged man. Oh poot, I chipped a nail...

I could keep going believe me, but I'd hate to keep you from your bathtime with your li'l rubber duckie!

Hey now, leave mr quackers out of this!


RM

FOMCLMAO!

Still LMAO!

I gotta confess that I handed you that one, and you didn't fail me!! Now I'm off to dictionary.com to look up a couple words. I forget, do you make anything off referrals to them too?

How could I resist? It was like setting up a t-ball for Mark McGwire and asking him not to jack it out of the park. Oh, and before I forget: Dictionary.com, Google, and Wikipedia - 5¢ per referal.

Of course you could avoid all that and just give me the six little words I long to hear chère. Any clue as to what those might be?

Hmmmm. Think! Think! Got me all flustered with the mushy "chère" speak!

*shakes head sadly* What can I say chère, mais c'est la vie - that's life. I'm in a cajun frame of mind tonight anticipating tomorrow, I'm making my famous jambalaya and plannin' on cookin' up a pile of grattons, gf brought home a mess of mudbugs for a boil, and my buddy done got in a couple of cases of Pearl an' we gonna have us a time.

RM

Oh, now I'm heartbroken! To fail so utterly and miserably!

And I just thought how I could have put that in my story! LOL! LOL! I can't stop laughing!

My bubba makes Lake Charles his home lo these past 30 years! Cajun is good food! Just last night we had Zatarain's jambalaya! You need to be sure to thank your gf properly for those mudbugs. Bon appetit! (< I don't have those fancy doodads on my computer!!)

Now I'm going to look up grattons, and Pearl!

I love me some cajun food, and de' creole be mighty fine too. I'll probably reserve some bugs for crawfish étouffée (not my fav but the gf deserves a treat and she loves it), but my Jambalaya is my pride. I use andouille, duck, and crawfish, and sometimes lapin if it's in season, and then most folks say you use either okra or a roux, I use both. I use okra at the start and then about 45 min to an hour before we're ready to eat I start on a brown roux and toss that in about 15 minutes before we serve. It adds a lagniappe, a little something extra.

Top that off with my bread pudding with hard sauce and it's a good time.

Now I'm going to look up grattons, and Pearl!

AH, grattons are pork cracklins, best when eaten fresh and served with a dash of hot sauce, and Pearl is Pearl Beer - used to be a major label beer back in the day, now you can only get it in Texas, western Arkansas and Oklahoma. My buddy got six cases in Texarkana and he's bringing three tomorrow. Gonna be a party.

RM

Mmmmmmmmmm you guys are making my hungry you need to send me the recipe of this wonderful Jambalaya you make, I have yet to find one that is full of flavor and can't get enough of.

Bread pudding mmmmmm do I need to say anything more.

Zooey and Emily look wonderful go Em, work it girl

Yep B, he's making me hungry too!

Robert, you certainly must have some mad culinary skills, and a pretty good cajun accent too! How's about a little Justin Wilson to get this party started!



BTW, I found grattons, but in the way of Pearl all I found was vodka and I thought that was a little hard for jambalaya (not to mention Russian!)

I can never get one of these videos to embed!

Back on topic
I really like Zooey's dress....very pretty

Busted!

Okay, Indie, I'll try. It's just that in these fashion threads I ...
(Robert, is this an appropriate place to say ... I don't even know what that means?)

*clears throat* Okay, here goes ...
"So, can anyone tell what material Zooey's dress is made of? It hangs too poofy for rayon, but it's much prettier than any polyester I've ever owned."


(Any better? )


No! Okay, I'll go away now... bye guys!

Perfect! You stuck the landing! Even the Russian judge gave you a 5.9, so no worries.

Not bad really. Looking at the lustre of the material I'd say it's probably silk or a silk blend.

TJ Maxx sometimes has good dresses... I mean granted they have a slew of horrid dresses that should be burned not worn, But i've gotten a few dresses from there or Ross that were really cute... It's all about being cheap. Cheap, and cute.

Emily..and especially Zoey, could stand there in bib overalls and straw hats, chewing on grass stalks, and they'd both be heavenly sexy.
I know, I know, I have NO fashion sense at all, and will now leave this conversation with my two cents thrown in, and your boot prints in my ass. Carry on.
