I don’t know crap about bow ties, except that The Doctor would not look the same without one gracing his throat. Come to think of it, I don’t think I know anyone personally who actually wears bow ties! Do you? I am pretty certain, however, that one can find the occasion to wear a bow [...]
Disney and MAC Come Together for the Venomous Villains Collection
Posted on July 9, 2012 Written by Leave a Comment
Not all villains are created equal. And not all of them look glamorous right out of bed. The trick, as it might very well be, is to know what to do with makeup. I might totally be wrong, but there might be some truth to that. After all, Disney has teamed up with MAC to [...]
6 Star Wars Cufflinks to Make Dressing Up More Fun
Posted on July 3, 2012 Written by Leave a Comment
Dressing up is something I have never really enjoyed, although there have been slight changes to that. Still, I will not trade being able to work in my jammies for an office job any time soon. In my opinion, nothing beats simply having to flip the laptop open and work. Then again, if you have [...]

Posted on May 8, 2012 Written by 1 Comment
It looks like The Avengers are not going anywhere anytime soon, and for me, it is probably due to the fact that I have NOT seen it yet! I am sure I’ll get to it one of these days, but in the meantime, I get suckered into spending time looking at Avengers-related material every time [...]

I can’t believe I am writing about makeup, but hey, it is made by MAC and it is Wonder Woman! Okay, I confess – I did not really know much about MAC until I asked my best friend. So what’s up with this new line of makeup, and why is MAC making it to the [...]

Geeks and fashion? Gone are the days when the reasonable people did not care about what to wear. Instead, today, we hear about hipsters, geek chic, geek fashion, and so on. There are even entire ensembles created especially for those who want to look geeky cool! Maybe there is nothing wrong with that, but it [...]
How Hipsters Stole the Geek Mojo
Posted on December 7, 2010 Written by 9 Comments
(Or, how “geek chic” has somehow become mainstream.) Geeks are, by definition, an obsessive lot, seizing onto one or more hobbies, television shows, movies, etc. with a frightening passion. If you’re reading this blog, chances are you have at least one geek obsession. In fact, I’d wager you have several. Geeks of old were the [...]

“When it comes to eyeglasses, it’s cool to look like a nerd.” What say you? I have had to wear glasses since I was in third grade, so I don’t really know about glasses looking cool. (Yeah, talk about looking cool to a 9-year-old who had to wear humongous pink glasses. Oh, and yes, I [...]

A few months ago I already went into the subject of headphones as fashion item. When I saw the newest headphones born from a collaboration between Skullcandy and Roc Nation I was immediately sold, just by looking at the couple of photos available. The Roc Nation Aviator headphone is clearly retro inspired and totally drool [...]
