What I Wore: The Dark Side

_MG_8702

If you follow me over on Fashionably Nerdy, then you saw me post about this great maxi dress that can double as maternity wear. It was on super sale, so naturally I snagged it. I couldn’t wait to feature it because it was absolutely perfect – just the right bit of chic AND geek. My only complaint is that it’s a bit see through, but if you wear the right undergarments, you should be ready to go! It’s definitely the perfect summer piece since it’s so light and airy. I paired it with a denim button down to give it a little more personality and a bold statement necklace to bring in a little glam. Easy, breezy…geekgirl. Slogan: coined.

What I Wore: Back to the Future Marathon

DSCF3114

In a surprising moment, Miami actually hosted a pretty cool geeky event a couple of weekends ago: a Back to the Future marathon at our local art house theater, O Cinema. We naturally picked up those tickets at lightning speed (88 mph, perhaps?) and amped ourselves up by listening to The Power of Love by Huey Lewis on our way over. I know it’s cheesy, but it makes me happy to think that my little one is already experiencing some pretty neat things that her parents love from inside the womb. She showed her appreciation by wiggling around in my belly a few times throughout the movie. She also showed her displeasure by making me pass out half way through the second film and making us miss the last. Oh Luna, you still have the upper hand on me!

What I Wore: My Little Luna

DSCF2860

I know, I know. You may be bored of this look, but it’s just so perfect and comfortable now that my expanding waistline gets in the way of most outfits. I’ve realized I totally hate pants this pregnancy, so if you have any good looking and comfy maternity pants to recommend, that would be great. Until then, I’ll be rocking leggings, shorts and dresses come November. Just kidding, I’ll bring you something different next week, I promise!

Seriously though, this look lets me inject a little personality into my weekend outfits, which I gladly welcome. Basics can be so boring to me. Also, when did my bump grow so much??

Fashionably Nerdy

fnfacebook

I am so proud to announce that I have joined the Fashionably Nerdy family as their Geek Chic Mom & Kids correspondent. I had followed the girls for some time and viewed them as The Fangirl Diaries‘ West Coast counterpart (it was really sweet that they did too). I always loved their content and I got the chance to meet Stephanie at the SherlockedCC event last year at San Diego Comic Con. That kind of solidified my love for the site and their team, so needless to say, I couldn’t have been happier when they approached me to join! I’ll be blogging and vlogging about all things fashionably geeky (naturally) when it comes to maternity and motherhood. I can’t wait to share a little more about this new chapter in my life and hope you all enjoy the ride!

You can check out my first post about how to dress your bump with crop tops (no, I’m not lying) here.

Nerdy Must Haves

Sailor Moon Leggings; Since my belly began expanding with my pregnancy, I am in desperate search for comfort paired with fashion. I’ve found that leggings do this best! I can push them down under my belly and feel such relief, but when paired with a tunic top can look so chic and stylish. That’s why geeky leggings are my new best friends, and I am all about TeeFury’s new line – especially these Sailor Moon ones!

Mother of Dragons Tee; Like most ladies, I love me some Daenerys Targaryen. She’s the ultimate bad ass female – I mean, she birthed DRAGONS, you guys. Who doesn’t want to be able to say that? I definitely have to rock this tee at some point in my pregnancy because although she may not be a literal dragon, I know my little Luna is going to be a fiery one. 😉

LSP Sweater; So I know I featured a LSP cardigan last time and now here I am with a sweatshirt, but I honestly can’t help myself. I think Lumpy is fresh to death and I’d love to wear her all over my body (weird?). Too bad it’s unbearably hot right now in Miami or I’d order one stat (if they weren’t sold out).

LightSaber Rattle; Do you want to die? Because I do. How cute is this adorable lightsaber rattle??? Sometimes it is very difficult to shop geeky for a little baby girl, but leave it to Etsy to do the trick. This was promptly put on our registry.
