The Secret Behind Schmidt’s New Girl Style: He’s Inspired by Justin Timberlake!

Mar 20, 2013 @ 10:30 am

A new episode of New Girl aired last night, and as always, we were smitten with Schmidt—and his classic style. According to Schmidt himself, actor Max Greenfield, that’s because the character is trying to emulate one very slick star. “I felt like Schmidt’s style can be best described as ‘he saw a Justin Timberlake HBO special and did his best to kind of replicate that within a budget. And it didn’t go well. And it’s kind of stayed on that level ever since,’” joked Greenfield to InStyle.com while walking the red carpet at PaleyFest. Can you see the style resemblance?

New Girl’s Max Greenfield and Jake Johnson Have the Cutest Bromance

New Girl star—and InStyle‘s April cover girlZooey Deschanel gets a lot of attention for her feminine fashion statements. But we think her handsome co-stars, Max Greenfield and Jake Johnson, look just as stylish—and according to Johnson, that’s thanks to Greenfield’s willingness to dish out his style tips. When we caught up with the boys at PaleyFest, they broke down their style bromance for us, and it’s a world of awww:

Jake Johnson: “Max gives me advice. He’ll tell me what to wear and what not to wear. We’ll be in wardrobe and they’ll give me three options, and he’ll pick my shirt—I don’t do anything.”

Max Greenfield: “He just needs a little help. Sometimes he’ll just come in with some cutoff corduroys and a tank top, and I’ll say, ‘That’s not only inappropriate for work but for life. You’re an adult man, you know? You’re not the Big Lebowski.’ I will say this: he’s a great student. Look at him tonight, he looks fantastic.”

Johnson: “I’ll tell him not to wear something, but he’ll wear it anyway and everyone will be like, ‘Your cardigan looks so handsome!’ I’ll be, like, ‘Dude, those jeans look too tight, don’t wear them,’ and everyone else will be, ‘Great jeans!’ This whole world confuses me.”

At least you’re trying, Jake—and looking good, too! Check out New Girl Tuesdays at 9/8c on FOX. Plus, get the inside scoop on Zooey’s cover shoot for InStyle’s Annual Color Issue in the behind-the-scenes video by clicking below.

We Love the New Girl on InStyle’s Annual April Color Issue: Zooey Deschanel!

Mar 12, 2013 @ 6:00 am
Zooey Deschanel InStyle coverGiampaolo Sgura

Zooey Deschanel is InStyle‘s annual April color issue cover girl! And what we learned when we sat down with the New Girl is that she’s anything but green—especially when it comes to crafting her signature style. “People are more affected by how I look and dress myself than I think anyone would care to admit. I guess I’ll just have to start wearing power suits,” she joked. Not that she needs them: she stars on a hit TV series, has her fourth She & Him album, Volume 3, coming out this May, and maintains her own successful website, Hellogiggles.com—and all while working her signature bangs and gorgeous red-carpet looks. “Style isn’t when you buy yourself the most expensive things,” she says. “It’s being creative and able to put together what you’ve collected.” In the issue, Deschanel also revealed that when she was young, she couldn’t afford to collect the couture items she’s seen in today, but she feels all the more savvy for it. “I didn’t have a lot of money, so I got things for, like $2, $3, and made myself look as good as I could. Limitations make you more creative.” Indeed, just check out her nail art for proof of her vivid imagination! To read more about Deschanel, pick up the brand-new April issue—or download it to your iPad, Nook, or Droid tablet—on newsstands starting Friday, March 15.

New Girl Is More Than a TV Show for Jake Johnson, It’s a Walk-In Closet!

Feb 24, 2013 @ 12:21 pm

New Girl star Jake Johnson got dressed for yesterday’s Film Independent Spirit Awards thanks to his alter-ego Nick Miller. “My character wears this!” he told InStyle.com of the John Varvatos suit and matching shoes he wore to the awards, where he represented his indie film, Safety Not Guaranteed (the movie won Best First Screenplay). While a wardrobe assistant at New Girl helped style the star—“I put a suit on, that seems like a lot for a Saturday,” he added—Johnson also noted that he gets his style advice from another cast member, Max Greenfield, a.k.a., Schmidt. “All jokes aside, I will a lot of times ask him, ‘What do you think? What should I wear?’ He’ll say, ‘A suit, no tie.’” Now that’s a style bromance we love!
