From accessories and footwear, jewelry and clothing, we are surely in the Age of the Geek, and Star Wars is leading the charge!
Here in L.A. it’s been a constant stream of Hello Kitty related events celebrating 40 years of Sanrio’s adorable little kitty…girl…who isn’t a cat but totally is. Hello Kitty Con is just around the corner and Jeffrey Campbell has just released a new, limited edition collection that seem like definite must-haves to sport there – Hello Kitty X Jeffrey Campbell!
With George R. R. Martin’s phenomenal fantasy book series, A Song of Ice and Fire, turned hit HBO show now in its epic fourth season, Game of Thrones, it’s never been a better time to be a fan of the world of Westeros!
