Geek Chic: Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Batman!

This past weekend, The Fangirl Diaries recorded our 3rd podcast and I’m pretty sure you can tell what our main subject matter was! We had a blast, as always, and despite some technical difficulties were able to deliver another fun discussion about all things geeky in pop culture. I’m kind of obsessed at the moment with pairing a fandom tee and a high waisted skirt. I just think it is so flattering to all body types. This little swingy skirt from Nordstrom Rack does just that perfectly. It’s soft and comfy, which makes it a fabulous go-to when wanting to dress up your geeky look. I’m sure it won’t be the first time you see it on the blog!

Geek Chic: The Dark Side

Come to the dark side, we have cookies.

On the heels of my post about mixed feelings towards leggings, I go ahead and make myself look like a somewhat hypocrite. Yep, here I am in leggings. But honestly, paired with this perfectly soft tunic tee and sneakers, I couldn’t have been more comfortable. In fact, I think I may have found my SDCC staple outfit, especially after a long night of drinking and dancing the night away. Leggings, I was wrong about you.

The Fangirl Diaries: SDCC Outfits

So for those of you still not following my little side project, The Fangirl Diaries…DO EET! I’d like to think that our content is improving as we go and I’m really proud of where it is heading. There are a lot of amazing things in my geeky future, and I can’t wait to share them with you, but for now, check out our newest video with the absolutely adorable Netty of The Fashionable ESQ. She was sweet enough to style several outfits for me for upcoming San Diego Comic Con (SDCC), and we had such a fun time together.

Fandom Leggings

Leggings. I immediately think of Daria’s obnoxious sister, Quinn.
You just heard her voice in your head, didn’t you?

I had been on the fence about leggings for quite some time. Probably because I see people mistaking them for PANTS. Pants they are not, my friends. They are meant to be worn with an over-sized tunic top or any top that at least covers your crotch and the majority of your backside. If not, I (and everyone else) sees more than they signed up for at any given moment (especially when you bend over – yikes).

With that said, when worn appropriately, I have grown to love them. They are comfy and easy to wear, plus the fandom world has taken to creating all sorts of character and story driven leggings. This means more room in your luggage when packing for conventions, as you can just roll them up into a tiny little log of goodness. However, their price tag has always made me think twice. They usually run between $60-100 and I just couldn’t justify paying that for a pair of leggings I would just wear to specialty events.

But low and behold! I have discovered this fantastic Etsy shop that I have decided to share with all of you, velvetcoc. Unfortunate name aside, they sell amazing fandom leggings for $18 and are currently holding a 2-4-1 sale!!! The seller is located in China, so you will have to wait for your goodies with bated breath, but honestly, it only took 2 weeks for my pair to arrive. Not too shabby! Want to know what I’m picking up next? See my favorites below:

I’m crossing all body parts that she’ll add Doctor Who inspired leggings next!

Geek Out: Maleficent

As you can all imagine, I was pretty stoked for the premiere of Disney’s Maleficent starring Angelina Jolie. I was there opening night and wanted to make sure I dressed the part. Although the horns pictured were the bestie’s, I think I paid tribute to my favorite Disney villain while still staying geek chic. Unfortunately, Disney did not. I was disappointed in the way they portrayed Maleficent, whom to me is a very powerful female character. However, I’ll stop there. Our full review is posted on The Fangirl Diaries Youtube channel so make sure to check it out!
