This time of year, my social media pages are full of people trying to motivate themselves to be more fit and workout. Now, while I’m not fond of those inspiration images usually seen around Pinterest telling me what I should or shouldn’t do, I am fond of messages that get me a little more pumped up to go to the gym. Especially, when those messages are nerdy AND on workout clothes. Activate Apparel is a company I touched on back in this post, and since I’ve been seeing them pop up on friend’s pages, I figured checking out their new stuff would be worth a look.

Offering sophisticated and chic sterling silver jewelry licensed from DC Comics and Star Trek, Australian jewelry company Guild Jewellery Design is one of the few companies around offering stylishly geeky jewelry that wont break the bank.
With average prices ranging from $30-80 (though those gorgeous charm bracelets will set you back between $140 and $275), their rings, earrings, necklaces, etc., are a perfect happy medium in quality, price, and style compared to what you’ll get from Hot Topic and nOir Jewelry.
