I think sometimes I get annoyed when people say things like "you look so much like my friends sister" or "my friends friend cousins baby's mama" or things like that. If someone in this world is going to share my appearance I want them to be awesome and awesome-lookiing. I may cry if someone said to me you look like cinderella's wicked step sister clearly that is not awesome. That would just be lame. So here's the thing the only person I have ever been compared to is Zooey Deschanel. Not only do people say we are look similar, but they'll say her quirky personality reminds them of me. I take this as a huge compliment. I love her, and have loved her for a long time. So when 500 days of Summer came out..

for a few months after I would get calls and texts a lot, not like once or twice, but seriously like every time one of my friends saw the movie {still} I would hear this "Have you seen 500 days of summer, she reminds me SO much of you." Which truly does make me happy, because I love her. I love her goofy laugh, her funny songs, and her vintage look.
Here's a few comparison shots. What do you think?





Sorry for the crazy disorderliness of that whole collage. So then all the sudden New Girl comes out on Fox right? right.

Of course, I am in love with this series. I DVR it, and watch every tuesday (TONIGHT!) Does anyone else just love grumpy old Nick… me too. So the same exact thing happens as when 500 days of summer came out. People at my work, my friends, and randoms ask me if I have seen that series and then they say… because you and her are so the same. Not only this, but now Jared will see her on TV and say things like "look, you're on Jimmy Fallon". Also I am in love with Jimmy Fallon, I will lose all my sleep to watch him. He is the funniest dude on late night and SNL (except Andy Sandberg).. Glad I got that off my chest. Anyway here is why I think people think we are alike.
1. We are weird. Zooey was named the quirkiest girl in people (or some other magazine)… and I know that I am strange. I like to rap to Jared when he gets home from work, I sing songs to Shia to teach her to go to the bathroom outside, I paint my nails really funny (Zooey did tux's on her nails for the Grammy's), I think everything is hilarious, I make faces at babies at the store to try and get them to give me a reaction, I try on boy clothes that are way to big and then test out different accents in them, I make up slang words, I say really awful dirty things because people don't expect it, I almost give my mom heart attacks because of the fake cuss wars I get into with my baby bro on Facebook. Two weirdo's..

I think the main reasons for our comparison would be the pale skin, dark hair, really blue eyes and straight across bangs. Here are my glam eye shots: (yeah i'm kissing my dog, what of it!)


The last reason. I think we get compared to one another (I am sure that all the time, she gets things like "have you read miki's blog") is because we kind of both have old souls. My dad always said that to me. I am an old soul that is stuck in a younger body. I like to think of my self as old fashioned. Also we are both married to musicians. That's all. Maybe..
On that note I want to leave you all with one of my favorite Zooey videos:
wow you do look so much like her! i absolutely love new girl and nick! i am hoping her and nick will end up together!
ReplyDeleteI hope that too! I really just love him more than anyone else on the show.
DeleteJust came
ReplyDeleteAcross your blog! What a cute post...Zooey is just the cutest...recently saw 500 days ...so yea I can see the resemblance!!
Well thank you, I take that as a compliment! Thanks for the comment and stopping in!
Deleteoh my gosh,,, you really do look SOOO much like her! I am utterly in love with zooey!!
ReplyDeleteWell thank you =) I really love her too. She is so freaking cute. I fell in love all over again when she was on SNL last week.
Deletehaha I totally see it! I love her quirky-ness too!
ReplyDeleteAw Thanks! Isn't it hilarious? I love how goofy she is in interviews.
DeleteZooey is my idol. For reals though. If I could pick any celeb to look like, dress like, sing like, and be like it would be her.
ReplyDeleteSeriously though. Her cute oxfords, her flaring vintage dresses and skirts. I seriously love her style. Oh and her singing voice, I would trade my left pinky toe for it!
DeleteI totally see it! : ) I LOVE LOVE LOVE her, and New Girl is pretty much the only TV show I watch.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm a sucker for TV of any sort, but I get oober excited on Tuesdays, because I LOVE new GIRL so much! I am glad you love her too!
Deletei WISH i looked like zooey! she rocks!!!
ReplyDeleteshe does rock! She cracks me up
DeleteThanks for following! Cute blog. New follower :)
ReplyDeleteYou do look a LOT like her! That's a good thing. She's super cute and spunky. I totally do know what you mean though about people telling you you always look like someone's best friend from middle school, your old neighbor, the girl from work etc. I hear it all the time. I think it's the long brown hair + brown eyes thing for me. People always think I look like someone they know!
For real! i always hate that, because then you fell your personal identity is being robbed! Lame.
DeleteToo cute! And can I please just say that I am in love with Nick...well, Jake Johnson. Yum!
ReplyDeleteKeep Shining,
Meghan

Deleteoh gosh, she is definitely someone that you want to be compared to. she is absolutely adorable! and isn't that bank dance the cutest thing ever?

You can be a blonde Zooey! ha! I used to have blonde hair in high school, and at that time in my life I was convinced I would be Shakira... Kind of glad that one didn't play out.
