Like #97: Scarves

"White People’s body temperatures do not operate on logical or consistent levels, and because of this white people are often forced to wear clothing combinations that might seem strange or illogical...But without a doubt, the one piece of clothing that helps to regulate white body temperature in all situations is the scarf.  During winter months, it’s no surprise to find white people all bundled up with scarves around their neck – it just makes sense. But even as the weather warms up and the other layers start to fall off, the scarf remains."

In these images, Zooey's use of scarves in her outfits is conforming to Lander's ideas about them.  As he argues, the weather is not the most important factor in whether or not a white person will wear a scarf, which is certainly the case with Deschanel.  She wears scarves both for warmth and for accessorizing, which aids in our understanding of her star image as part of the white, upper middle class culture.
