It's great to witness how the love of geeky fandom has through fashion, comic books, film, and video games. I believe that movies alone have helped Gen Z discover hidden geeky gems from the '80s and '90s. But let's talk about fashion now. Some apparel that you find at stores and honors our love of geek culture almost looks like straight-up cosplay. Some items are a bit more discreet. Below check out five items from different cool shops I'm smitten with for Spring/Summer. 

If you love video games and looking stylish, this is a sweet treat for you. Street Fighter is collaborating with UNIQLO UT to drop some Graphic T-Shirts on April or May depending on your region.  

Geek Fashion is so much fun! The Her Universe Fashion Show happened yesterday at San Diego Comic-Con.  Designers got to compete with their original “geek couture” designs to win the opportunity to design a Her Universe fashion collection with Her Universe founder Ashley Eckstein for Hot Topic. 

I can't think of a better day for Double Denim. Today, April 25th is Denim Day. It's a great day to wear jeans with a purpose, support survivors, and educate yourself and others about sexual assault.

Too many women have been sexually assaulted one way or another and it's very, very far from ok. It is NEVER ok. 

Ever wonder "What am I wearing to work tomorrow?". I've been a freelance Digital Copywriter and Social Media Manager for different companies for many years. I've always loved and appreciated the freedom it gives me. A lot of times, I use a variety of coffee shops and other visually pleasing places as my office. I wear backpacks all the time and try to keep my fashion & style cute and comfortable for the majority of the week. 

Mattel Barbie dolls have been breaking the mold lately and changing for the very best. They're focusing more on inspiring young girls to be not only beautiful but SMART too and independent, career chasers. Recently, Barbie has designed dolls to represent artist Frida Kahlo, NASA mathematician Katherine Johnson, Olympian Chloe Kim & more. Now they have added another woman that many of us definitely look up to, Iris Apfel! YES!!! I'm a big Iris Apfel fan. Her style, spirit, and way of life are huge inspirations to me. Iris Apfel has a very successful career in interior design for over a decade and a very interesting life in general. She's the unofficial queen of accessories. Anyone who hasn't watched the documentary 'Iris" definitely should. She's someone the youth should aspire to be like.

Hey Nubians, 

"Art Is The Ultimate Way To Express What You're Feeling And Dreaming Of." 

Who doesn't love art? Art can be considered a variety of different creative outlets. Many people consider fashion and their way of styling an artform. It expresses how they feel and showcases it to those around them. Others consider dance or theatre their art form. Of course, there is always drawing and painting. I LOVE to draw. I wouldn't consider myself one of the greats, but I enjoy it and it helps ease my mind. I am fascinated with murals and street art. The idea of completing a well thought out mural is probably somewhere on my bucket list. I admire artist with such vision and dedication who put their masterpieces together in the middle of the day while random strangers stroll by and just stare at them... I would assume it's not a distraction to a focused well focused and determined mind.

It's no secret that I'm a big fan of 'The Goldbergs'. I live for all of the nostalgia and trips back in time the show helps me take. I also happen to be a BIG fan of their wardrobe! Head of Wardrobe & Costume Designer, Keri Smith, does an amazing job! The colors, patterns, texture, & DENIM, DENIM, DENIM! It's awesome. They also have a great hair & makeup crew too.

Hey Nubians, 

These Archie Comics Betty and Veronica purses designed by Christian Francis Roth are to die for! Incredibly girly and classic. Archie Comics are fun to read, I started picking them up as a young girl. I loved the retro inspired art, the fun and fresh story lines and of course, Betty and Veronica. Are you a Betty or Veronica? Everyone always wants to know. 

These purses make a great fashion accessory for any geek girl or lover of retro fashion or cartoons. I seriously can't pick a favorite, I would be happy with any of these. The clutch is a statement piece with the glitter but the hat box could easily be a collectors favorite and a true classic style. These purses are available for pre-order now and are expected to ship November 11th. 

On another note, who's keeping up with Riverdale? Gosh I love Betty on that show. Such an interesting twist.

I love fashion editorials from Vogue Japan almost as much as I love the color red. Red has always been a very favored color in my life, especially when it comes to clothing and makeup. Probably my second favorite after purple truly. Red lips are ALWAYS my favorite at any time of day. A nice classic red lip is unavoidable. It basically says "Hello, I'm here". I also love a nice red chunky sweater during fall/winter, I'm on the hunt for one right now. 

Red is an interesting color because I relate it to both very happy and very upsetting feelings. I'd like to say I associate it with mainly positive emotions except when I feel like "I'm seeing red." then that's a whole other story.  When I googled meaning of the color red it says...

My Favorite Season Has Arrived And The Air Is Crisp As I Love So Dearly.


On a happier note, isn't this outfit cute? My friend took these photos about a month ago, and when I was looking at them today I thought, these colors are perfect for Fall! Green, orange, mustard yellow, burgundy, ugh! I can not wait to start wearing sweaters. This outfit has very much a hippy girl vibe to it. The shoes are from Donald J Pliner and the dress was a gift from my mother, I believe she picked it up a a random boutique (not sure the name). The awesome sunglasses are from ALDO. 



Lastly...

Thank You Lord! Fall Is In The Air. 


I was looking on the streets for Fall fashion inspiration this week but it seems even though the weather has cooled down and the air is brisk, it's still a bit too early. Therefore, I did the next best thing and started looking online at editorials from different September issues from magazines. I was quite smitten with Yumi Lambert for Vogue Australia photographed by Jackie Nickerson. I think the whole team from styling to makeup & more delivered excellent work.
