Yesterday might have been Thursday, but today is Thor’s day with the official release of Thor:The Dark World! So what better way to celebrate than to feature some wonderful Thor (and Loki) items both licensed and fan made.

Set to Stunning @ Comikaze Expo 2013
1This past weekend we had the opportunity to attend the third annual Comikaze Expo. Since this con is relatively new, it means that there were many vendors that I don’t normally come across. The best part was how much great geeky stuff I stumbled upon.
Geek Fashion at Comikaze
If you’re in the LA area and plan on going to Comikaze Expo this weekend there are loads of events that cater to geek fashion. Here’s what they have up their sleeve:
Tonight at 6:00pm will be a geek fashion show taking place on the Hot Topic Main Stage sponsored by Castle Corsetry and Espionage Cosmetics. There will be at least 3 different designers there, if not more! Here’s the event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/612042108841531/
On Saturday, I’ll be wandering around with my camera looking for anyone in great geek fashion. You’ll also get a chance to see my second Nerdvember outfit!
On the Hot Topic Main Stage there will be a “Year of the Fangirl” Fashion Photo Shoot sponsored by Her Universe. If you have a great outfit you’ve been wanting to show off, definitely show up. Due to the limited nature of the photo shoot, it’ll be first come first serve!
Also on Sunday at 11:00, there’s a Geek Girl Fashion panel featuring some great people like Ashley Eckstein (Her Universe), Mandie Bettencourt (www.geekyglamorous.com) and Crystal Clark (www.geekpinata.com).
You’ll also be able to check out Scruffy all weekend at booth #540. Definitely stop by and say hello!
Of course, there will be plenty of vendors there to whet your geeky appetite. I’m hoping I can find some great items to add to my wardrobe. Anyone else plan on attending? What panels are you hoping to checkout?
Nerdvember Contest
10A few years ago I decided to do a month long challenge. I was growing my hair out at the time, and was getting bored with just wearing it down or putting it in a pony tail, so I decided to try a new hairstyle for the entire month of November. Well, this year I’m itching for a new challenge, and decided to include you guys in on the fun! For the month of November, Scruffy and I are going to try and incorporate something geeky into our daily looks. It’ll be either a fun accessory, or maybe an entire outfit. Pretty much, a reason to dress up a bit more than we typically do on a daily basis.
So where do you come in? Well, we want you to give it a try too! If you participate even a day, you’ll be entered in a raffle to win a prize. If you go for the gold and participate for at least 25 days, the prize is even better.

Superhero in Training: Geek Workout Gear
2When I was in school, I was pretty much convinced that I didn’t have an athletic bone in my body. I preferred the comfort of art club, marching band, and my video games over team sports. However, all that changed when I discovered weightlifting earlier this year.
I’ve finally found something that I not only love and makes me stronger, but that also makes me feel like a superhero in training. However, when it come to geek clothes to workout in, I’m sorely lacking.
Inspired by this Instagram photo from Her Universe where she’s rocking a Wonder Woman shirt, I was curious to see what options are out there for active geeks.
Stunning Celebrations: Popping the Question
Now that you have your ring, it’s time to pop the question. From rings boxes to elaborate plans involving celebrities, there are plenty of ways to ask your loved one to be your Player Two.
Dress Your Best in Geek Chic Dresses
One great aspect to Halloween is there always seems to be an influx of great geeky dresses released for the holiday. While some are definitely more costume than fashion, there are a few that can be easily accessorized to work for any occasion.
Catching Fire with Covergirl’s Hunger Games Inspired Looks
1One of the trends we’ve been seeing in the last few years is makeup lines corresponding with movie releases. While last year’s Hunger Games movie featured a limited release nail polish set, this year’s movie has an entire makeup line inspired by Catching Fire. Covergirl will have a unique look for each of the districts, available now and in the upcoming days.
Bats and Cats at Forever 21
1I definitely love our readers since they love linking us to new geeky release or items around the web. So imagine my pure glee when we were linked to this new collection from Forever 21. In case it’s not apparent at this point, we maaaaay have a thing for Batman related apparel and items around here (examples one, two, and three).
Evil Never Looked so Good
5Last year, I came across these Disney villains makeup pallets just in time for Halloween. Well, they’re back again with new packaging, new colors, and a new villainous face!
