What I Wore: My Backpacks Got Jets {Sent From Mars Giveaway}

Christmas season is upon us, and for those geeky individuals like ourselves, this holds a little more meaning this year: Star Wars! That’s right. We are mere weeks away from the premiere of The Force Awakens, which is incredible to wrap my head around. I totally remember seeing the first teaser, and feel like that was just yesterday. A lot has happened in a year for me – little did I know while watching that teaser that I would be a mom to an amazing baby girl and collaborating with such an amazing shop as Sent From Mars!

I had been a big fan of Mari’s work before we both were nominated for Geekie Awards, but that’s when our relationship blossomed. Mari is beyond talented and makes the most beautiful fandom-inspired leather clutches that are sure to make your wallets weep. I had such a fun time putting together a Boba Fett-inspired outfit around this one amazing clutch (& was pleased I am starting to fit into some pre-pregnancy clothes), and am even more excited that I can give you guys the opportunity to snag one of your own in time for the premiere!

Star Wars Fashion Round Up

Yes, I know.
My blog has turned into Star Wars HQ, but if you are a geeky girl like myself, I doubt you are complaining all that much (hopefully). With The Force Awakens premiere quickly approaching, a very important question arises: What will I wear?!?! I’m here to take the guess work out of it for you because there are some seriously awesome Star Wars threads out there to choose from! Here are some of my favorites;

Rebel Pilot 2-Piece Dress; I have been in love with this dress from 1138 Clothing for awhile now. I adore the pin up vibes and have been dying to snatch one of my own to wear to a local con. However, it works just as well for a fancy premiere outfit – maybe if you and your significant other are making a date night out of it? Or even a geeky first date!

BB-8 Skater Skirt; BB-8 is everyone’s new favorite – it’s undeniable. How can you say otherwise when he is so flippin’ cute! It also helps that his vibrant orange hues paired with grey and black make the perfect palette for fun fashion pieces. This skater skirt by Go Follow Rabbits is absolutely adorable and can be paired with either a black or white basic crop top to really nail that flirty but geeky look!

Her Universe x Hot Topic | Star Wars Fashion Collection

Her Universe has teamed up with Hot Topic to bring us geek girls the most gorgeous Star Wars fashion line ever. Sure to make a killing with the upcoming holiday season and the release of The Force Awakens, what I love most about this collection is that not only is it beautiful, but it is also affordable! This is such a golden era of geek girl fashion. I am floored on the regular with the quality and craftsmanship of fandom-related clothing and accessories. Geekery and fashion can finally go hand in hand (as it always should have), and I am loving it.

The collection is available at select Hot Topic stores and online now (& on sale)!
What’s your favorite piece?
I’m personally lusting hard over that Boba Fett bomber jacket (although the Darth Vader jacket is hot as hell too) and am adding it to my Christmas list stat!

I know I’m not the only one pumped for The Force Awakens – we are only about one month away until the newest Star Wars installment and you can feel the excitement anywhere you go.

What I Wore: Jedi Academy

So I know what you may be thinking. Fall? Miami doesn’t have seasons. Isn’t it summer year round? Yes, my friends. This is true. But something happens naturally within me around this time of year, and sure enough, it happened again just a couple of weeks ago. The second the calendar flips through to September, something within me changes. Something just feels a little different and I know it’s that time of year: FALL. Time of pumpkin spice, less rain and better clothes.

Her Universe has definitely gotten the “better clothes” memo because their new Fall items are amazing. Now I haven’t gone “back to school” in what seems like ages, but this varsity style Jedi cardigan would be my go-to if I was still roaming those halls. It is absolutely adorable as it is lightweight, so it’s perfect for the early Fall months if you actually get real seasons or year round for us Miami-ans. It also looks great paired with your typical Fall colors like olive green and mustard, which I am rocking in this post. I decided to go for a full blown homage to Star Wars, so I swiped my hubby’s awesome baseball cap and the outfit instantly reminded me of attending a sporting event with cold beer in hand. MMmmm, beer. I will have you soon enough.
