What I Wore: Murder Boyfriend

img_1124

One thing is for certain in this crazy world: there will never be a shortage of fun at Geek Girl Brunch Miami. Getting to plan geeky events all over Miami with my best friend is really the best stress relief possible, and this month’s brunch was a blast! Since it was October, we decided to make the theme Murder Boyfriends, a term coined from the depths of Tumblr to describe Hannibal Lecter and Will Graham’s relationship on Fuller’s Hannibal. Naturally, I had to casually cosplay as my favorite cannibal.

Eat the Rude patch; this one is for all those Fannibals out there. One of the greatest lines ever, “eat the rude,” has become the take away quote for Hannibal fans. I think this patch would make the perfect addition to your fandom vest/jacket. If you are like me, and are putting together fandom-specific vests/jackets (currently working on my Sailor Moon one), then I suggest getting your hands on more affordable ones through AliExpress. Don’t say I never hooked you up, ladies! 😉

Potter Baby Bandana; something that really saved our lives and baby Luna’s style when she was suffering from severe acid reflux was baby bandanas. Rather than having her in an ugly and bulky bib when we would go out on the town, we would put one of these cute bandanas on and it would catch all the spit up, while not impeding on fashion (because duh, Luna has to keep up her reputation). This Potter ugly sweater one is so perfect for the upcoming holiday season. I’m not the only one swooning over it either, because it is currently sold out. Make sure to let PetiteGeekChic know you want more!

Kylo Ren print; all hail Nan Lawson! She has been one of my favorite artists for awhile now, and her work can be found scattered all over my house (most recently in Luna’s nursery), but she has been churning out some quality fandom prints lately. I featured her Kylo Ren, but she has a complimentary Rey (wouldn’t they look great facing each other???), an amazing Eleven, and this touching Snape print.

Stranger Things pin; if you are like me (and everyone who ingests pop culture like it’s air), you are a fan of Netflix’s Stranger Things. It’s everything that is good with the world, and makes my little 80’s heart happy. I am thrilled to see so many artists making swag to honor it, and I cannot wait to add this sweet Hopper pin to my collection.

Fandom Friday: Crossovers That Would Cause My Heart to Explode

Fandom Friday

1. Doctor Who/Sherlock; I’m sure this comes as no surprise to all my fellow BBC fangirls. This is the crossover that we have always hoped would happen, but have succumbed to just reading plenty of fan fiction. Have you guys seen this excellent mash up? It will only make your heart ache more for this project to actually happen.

2. Sailor Moon/Adventure Time; I am pretty quick to state that I think anything should be crossed with Adventure Time – it just lends itself to make any world a little more fun and bright. However, the image I used above definitely sparked an intense desire for it to happen with Sailor Moon. The anime can be pretty silly at first, but then progresses to some heavy themes. Think how adorable it would be a little more light hearted??? And with Jupiter as Marceline, what! Need this now.

5 Fandom Friday: Favorite Funko Pop Figures

I’m a little late to jump on this bandwagon, but better late than never, right? My sweet sister from another mister, Megan, from The Nerdy Girlie came up with this fun idea to combat writer’s block and I loved the concept! This week’s theme really spoke to me considering I have turned into a Pop fanatic seemingly overnight. I have a huge wish list (and no place to store them), so enjoy my most wanted.

1. Hannibal Wendigo Pop; there’s no denying that I absolutely adore Hannibal. It’s my favorite show that’s currently on TV, and I am all about the new Pop figures! I have Hannibal, but let’s face it. His Wendigo alter ego is by far the coolest of the collection, and, unfortunately, the one that is always out of stock at every store I go to. However, I’ll keep the faith that this little baby will be in my hands soon. I accept gift donations. 😉

Nerdy Must Haves

1. Unicorn Head Mount; this is so wondrous I almost can’t believe it exists in this world. If I ever have a little girl, this is definitely going in her nursery. I can’t imagine a unicorn wall bust ever being a bad idea, do you? Forget a nursery, one is going in each room of my house. Done and done.

2. LOST pillow; why hello classy home accessories featuring my favorite show of all time! This store on Etsy is my new favorite, and this pillow case especially needs to find a place in my house. It’s probably the LOST quote I use the most on a daily basis (aside from “WAAAALLLLTTT”), so I must have a visual reminder at all times. It’s only natural.

3. Hannibal Stag Necklace; I definitely don’t have enough Hannibal swag (well, aside from the permanent ink on my skin), and I’d love to start with this beautiful stag necklace from UnicornEmpirePrints. It’s so pretty and definitely not an overt homage to the Bryan Fuller show. As you all know, nothing gets me happier than wearing accessories or apparel that only true fans appreciate. I would probably hug anyone that took note of this necklace. You’ve been warned. They can get violent.

4. Sailor Moon Chokers; this perfectly marries two of my favorite things – Sailor Moon and the 90’s. Who wouldn’t want an awesome Sailor Moon charm choker??? I, personally, would rock it on an every day basis thankyouverymuch. Apparently I’m not the only one because this seller only has 2 charms left in stock! You better pick yours up soon and fast – they currently have a great discount code running (“WildStrawberries” gives you 23% off)!
