The Purple WOman

You are probably aware at this point that I have a slight David Tennant obsession. It started way back when (seriously, I don’t even know when), and have loved all his characters ever since. Needless to say, I think he was great in Jessica Jones as the not-so-nice Purple Man, and am beyond hyped to see that he will be making a return in one way or another in this new season (which drops this week – gah!). I wanted to style an outfit around his super-suave purple ensembles for both the premiere and this month’s Geeky Fashion Bloggers Alliance challenge (Marvel Villains).  Fun fact? As I was going down the escalator in the Hilton at San Diego Comic Con, David Tennant was chilling down below. I went full freeze and could not bring myself to go up to him. Instead I stared like a creeper from a few feet away because that’s so charming and effective.

That’s me, folks. That’s me.

Being Geek Chic: How to Style A Geeky Tee

beinggeekchic

I have decided to start a new feature on the blog where I give little tutorials, so to speak, about how to rock the geek chic look you see me donning all around this blog. I remember a friend once telling me she had no idea how girls could wear t-shirts as part of a stylish outfit, and I know a lot of people feel this way. They see tees as something to wear around the house or to throw on when you are having a lazy day. I come to tell you this isn’t so!

I’m a big fan of wearing geeky shirts out to girls nights, daytime adventures with the hubs and everywhere in between! It just takes a bit of practice and an eye for accessories to transition a tee from something you slap on to finish household chores to a totally hot fashion piece. Trust me when I say it’s easy, AND so comfortable! It’s also a perfect way to express your fandom, especially if you are picking up a tee from my personal favorite site, TeeFury!

I chose these 3 tees to style from the site, as they are three of my favorite fandoms at the moment: Sailor Moon, Jessica Jones & Star Wars (ps; I don’t care what you say about the word, Bae – I think it’s adorable).
