From the moment Robin made her cosplay debut at Anime California in 2015, a new passion was ignited inside her. Two hectic days before the convention, Robin handcrafted a Beast Boy and Raven costume for her and her bestie. Hours of hand sewing, lots of duct tape and many prayers later, Robin’s Teen Titans creations were ready.
We’re currently in the middle of Sartorial Geek’s biggest annual fashion challenge—Summer #SGFashionFix—that runs all month long! This is Week 4. So we’re over half-way through, but that doesn’t mean you can’t jump in! In fact, this might be the best week for debuting your geek chic looks because the theme is about the conventions we’re missing this year due to the pandemic, like San Diego Comic Con.
We’re on Week 2 of the Sartorial Geek Fashion Fix: Summer Challenge, and the prompt is Magical Menagerie, encompassing your favorite animal & animal-symbol characters. Since Disney’s live action The Lion King is out later this month, I’m Disneybounding a character from the classic animated film.
SARTORIAL GEEKS: ENSEMBLE!
Welcome to Sartorial Geek’s first ever Geek Fashion Fix Challenge, co-hosted by Nina and Alice! Throughout the entire month of July (and a bit of August), we challenge you to post a new pic of a geek themed outfit based on your favorite characters and fandoms on your Instagram account.
We’ll be sharing our favorites throughout the weeks on our Instagram. Plus, the outfits you post will win you prizes from Jordandene!
My last Disneybound post, Light Side Style, outfitted you to represent the Jedi Order or join the Resistance when you arrive at Disney’s Star Wars-themed land Galaxy’s Edge. This time, I share Dark Side Disneybound options.
Where there is Light, there is also Dark, and that’s true at Black Spire Outpost, which includes the presence of the sinister First Order. So if you’re inclined towards Imperial might or the mysterious Knights of Ren, these looks are for you.
This week, Disneyland opens its much anticipated Star Wars-themed land, Galaxy’s Edge*. This begs the question, what are you going to wear? Are you planning a Star Wars Disneybound?
In this 2-part blog post, I’m getting you outfitted for your visit to the Black Spire Outpost in either Light Side style or Dark Side chic.
I’m a firm believer in dressing up no matter what the occasion. Going on a quick Target run? Have dinner plans at a super casual restaurant? Taking your dog out for a walk? Dress to the nines . . . but make it geeky!
Like many geeky fashionistas, I’m always taking inspiration from beloved (and love to hate) characters from books, movies, and tv shows. Since I’ve been riding high on Marvel, I created a fun look with retro flair inspired by Minn-Erva from Captain Marvel, as portrayed by Gemma Chan. While I was bummed her character wasn’t fully fleshed out, there’s no denying that her aesthetic is cool AF.
