Style File: Volume 1

Zooey Magazine is introducing a brand new feature called "Style File." These tips are to help you better understand how your wardrobe works, and how you can do more than just a pair of jeans and a tee (although there's nothing wrong with that either!). This first volume is in conjunction with Red Light PR (photographed by Dawn DiCarlo) and is also featured in the April/May 2012 issue that can be seen for free on Issuu.com.
