Being Geek Chic: Subtle Geekery

I was given a request after my last Being Geek Chic post on how to incorporate geeky items into basic, every day outfits. I thought this was a great idea because it is something simple that you can do on an every day basis. And lets face it, I’m not always sporting a head to toe geeky-inspired outfit (shocker, I know!) The easiest way to bring in your fandom to any look is through jewelry. I’ve put together two outfits for you all that show you how you can rock your geekery without going head to toe fangirl.

I absolutely love the hippie/boho look these days. It’s so light and easy – exactly what this new mama craves when it comes to fashion. This off the shoulder, flowy top and faux suede fringe vest from Tobi are my new go-to’s when I need to look stylish without too much effort (check out other tops and outerwear from Tobi too). I paired them with a pair of cut off denim shorts and then starting adding some fandom jewelry, like a LOST necklace and Hunger Games-inspired ring. Both pieces are subtle little nods to things I love without overpowering the rest of the look.

My next look is a little more flashy. If you are going out with friends or have a hot date, you all know I’m going to immediately recommend reaching for a crop top with something high waisted (I’m so predictable). I paired this basic black crop from Tobi (they have so many cute ones to choose from) with my favorite high-waisted black denim for a really simple, but intense look. Since I was going dark and broody, I decided to compliment it with some deatheater-inspired accessories, such as my dark mark earrings & horcrux bracelet.
Tobi also has some boots and various accessories that would compliment this sinister vibe – so perfect for Halloween, right?

And there you have it!
Remember, being geek chic can be as simple as a small accessory as seen in this post, or as over the top as an elaborate casual cosplay. The important thing is to have fun, and be yourself!
