Florida Supercon 2016: Favorite Vendors

While visiting Florida Supercon a couple of weeks ago, I stumbled on some pretty amazing shops/vendors/artists. I decided to highlight a few and share their work here on the blog so that my lovely readers who were not in attendance could discover some new geeky creatives.

Jess D’Alba runs Geek Chic Dressica, an Etsy shop that specializes in feminine, yet geeky accessories and clothing. She had adorable hair bows and gorgeous retro-inspired crop tops. They totally spoke to my soul by having an added peter pan collar, so you know I was instantly smitten. She had this gorgeous Wonder Woman ensemble on deck to showcase her style, and I thought it was absolutely adorable. So much so that I have just commissioned her for a custom Harry Potter piece for my birthday festivities later this month. I am so excited to see how it turns out!

Embrace Your Geekness Day!

The most epic holiday you did not know about, Embrace Your Geekness Day, was celebrated on Sunday, July 13th. I did not find out about it until a couple of weeks ago, so it made me smile to know that I just happened to have scheduled my Doctor Who tattoo for that very day (kismet).

I will have a feature up in honor of the holiday over on The Fangirl Diaries, but I really wanted to touch on it here on the blog. Reason being, a lot of people may not understand why those deeply involved in a fandom may want it tattooed. It may seem frivolous, childish or even stupid, for some. However, I wanted to shed some light on the topic by sharing my own personal reason. Sure, some people (myself included at times) may just get a fandom tattoo because they want to (respect my authoritay), but sometimes, it goes deeper than that.

A Little Me Time

After some rough weeks, I thought it was time to have a little “me” day. Although, I’m pretty sure my idea of a “me” day is different from other girls. For me, it was getting a crazy-colored dye job and a fandom tattoo! I couldn’t be happier.

I’d just like to say that my hair stylist is the bomb. She always knows exactly what would work great with my style and isn’t afraid to take the risks I ask her to. If any of you readers are in the South Florida area, I can’t recommend Valerie at Kendall’s Peter of London enough. My orange and purple ombre is beyond. BEYOND. I think this one has even topped the pink!

Later that night, I was able to finally put my fandom (and endurance) to the test by tattooing the deathly hallows on my ribs. It had been something my best friend and the hubs had wanted to do as a bonding experience and although it didn’t work quite as planned (we just couldn’t sync up), it is pretty special. Another great recommendation if you are looking for a fantastic tattoo artist is Javier Betancourt at Ocho Placas – he did such an amazing job and has great “bedside manner.”

How was your weekend?

Weekend Highlights

Saturday we attended Jackie and Will’s co-ed bridal shower at their Key Biscayne cabana. We were lucky enough to meet these two about a year ago now (?) and we couldn’t be happier for them both. They are a couple that truly knows what it is all about & those are a rarity nowadays. We had some piña coladas, bocaditos and then a flippin’ delicious paella. Best part was the laid back atmosphere. You could really tell that everyone was enjoying themselves and were full of love for the couple. It’s just contagious.  We wish you guys all the best and cannot wait for your wedding in Key West later this year!

Lovable Friday!

I love my dogs so much. I can’t imagine ever owning any other breed, so naturally, I adore All-Mighty, a store dedicated to “the love of Boston Terriers.” They sell everything from onesies, adorable tees & now barrettes! Secretly, I am still a little girl that likes to wear bows in her hair (OK, maybe not such a secret) so these are slaying me! I am definitely buying some, but I am torn: there are so many different styles to choose from (12 to be exact)! What’s a girl to do?? I guess I’ll just have to get them all 😉
