Zooey Deschanel is the cover girl of InStyle's August issue. Apart from being on the magazine's cover, she also gave the magazine's readers a peek into her life. Zooey Deschanel is more popularly known for her performances in either comedy or romantic comedy flicks. Moreover, she even became more popular when her hit TV series, "New Girl," began. Due to her quirky portrayal of Jess in "New Girl," she has been regarded as an "adorkable" star.

However, despite the consecutive successes that she has been receiving, she admits to feeling frustrated by those who always make it a point to classify her. She told InStyle, "The thing that's funny about our society is that people love compartmentalizing. Love. It. You almost get mocked for wanting to do more than one thing."

Based on the feedback of those who know her best, such as her loyal fans, the 34-year-old Zooey Deschanel cannot be placed in just one nutshell. She is a versatile actress, a skilled producer, a good indie singer, an interesting lifestyle blog co-founder, a trendy fashion designer, and an "unapologetic feminist" in an industry that is dominated by the male population.

Deschanel has also been surrounded with questions that keep asking her if she wants to be a mom soon. Her reaction was, "Like every woman is dying to give birth! I don't think so. Nobody asks guys that. You go into a supermarket and every tabloid is like, "Pregnant and alone,' stuck in this 1950s ideal of how a woman should live her life. That's not something that defines me at all. This brings out the fiery feminist in me."

On the cover of InStyle, Zooey Deschanel is featured while wearing a Prada dress and scarf. However, many people claim that majority of the cover shot has been Photoshopped quite heavily in order to make her look like the transgender character that Jared Leto played in "Dallas Buyers Club."
