Kara Danvers is a lot of things: reporter, secret superhero, loving friend, and sister. Not to mention, she’s the television character I wish I had to look up to growing up.
And now, in celebration of Supergirl season three just hitting Netflix, I’m here to tell you why Kara Danvers is also a style icon.
I still have yet to make it to San Diego Comic Con and that’s a huge bummer. And the biggest bummer of all? Missing out on all the amazing SDCC exclusives! But, despite all of my serious FOMO, I want all of you that are going to have an amazing time and make the most out of your con experience… and what would that be without some shopping?! So, without further ado, I present to you all of the geek-chic SDCC exclusives you need to add to your wardrobe this week.
(Also, I’m not going to explicitly state that someone should hand-deliver all of these to me in Brooklyn, but I certainly wouldn’t complain if they did.)
Itty-bitty tie tops. Tiny sunglasses. …plastic sandals?
I’m not gonna lie: some of the summer 2018 trends have me wondering what year we’re in. And while some are a little wacky, there are still so many I can’t wait to incorporate into my summer wardrobe. Here are some tips on how to style those trends for the geek girl in all of us this season!
If we have spoken for ten minutes or more, you know I’m a massive fan of Zodiac Starforce. ZS is a magical girl comic from creators Kevin Panetta and Paulina Ganucheau. Starring five incredible ladies, Zodiac Starforce deals with regular high school problems, cut with fighting monsters. It’s a lot. But this crew is up for it.
Do you want to know the most difficult thing about being in the geek community? Everyone is so. Damn. Talented. And when a bunch of talented people hone their craft and flock to places to sell it, well, let’s just say it takes quite the toll on my wallet. Linda Heredia of 1138 Clothing is one of those people.
I don’t know about you guys, but every so often a stumble across a shop or brand and stare wide-eyed at their homepage with a gut feeling that screams, “I think this was made for me.” That’s exactly how I felt when I discovered Utinni Bikini last year.
Have you been searching for more ways to drop all of your money on the latest in geek fashion since last month’s roundup of goodies? Look no further: a lot has happened since then in the geek chic world, and I’m here to tell you about just a few of my favorites.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: grown-ish is the most fashionable show currently on air. So much that it’s the first (and probably only) series, save for an obvious Black Panther, I’ll double-dip into for a style icon. This week and every week, my fictional style icon (and big ol’ crush) is grown-ish regular Luca Hall, played by real-life fashion influencer (and, of course, Yeezy model) Luka Sabbat.
Being a geek girl with a love for fashion is really starting to take a toll on my wallet, and it’s getting to the point where there are so many amazing brands and companies out there that I don’t even care anymore.
You may have seen me shout out Prophecy Girl on our Instagram (@sartorialgeek) in the past, but I love them so much, we’re bringing that love to the blog, too.
Splurge on skincare in the name of self-care, they said. It’ll be fun, they said. (Okay, well, it is fun but also really, really dangerous for my wallet.)
Last year, skincare powerhouse GlamGlow teamed up with the recently revamped Power Rangers film for an exclusive line of their best-selling GravityMud masks in colors inspired by its villains. And thus, the GlamGlow Power Rangers GravityMud was born.
