Stunning Style: Look #22

1

I really wanted to put together a look that could work as a casual outfit or as something a bit more dressy. I also thought that my JumpFromPaper purse would look great with a Batman inspired outfit.

So channeling a little bit of Adam West, this outfit features a vintage shirt, a DIY fascinator, and a fun 2d purse.

Great Geek Bedding at Pottery Barn Kids

Awesome geeky merchandise being in the kid’s section of stores has never stopped this geek, and it shouldn’t stop you either! Just because some marketing or licensing department thought such-and-such item should be for kids instead of adults, or boys instead of girls, should never stop you from wanting it, and getting it.

That’s definitely true when it comes to the awesome geek-themed bedding that can be found at Pottery Barn Kids.

A fun trend I’ve seen popping up are tunic tanks or tank dresses that also have a little geek flair along with them. Halloween has definitely helped to inspire this look for a quick costume, but I also think that a lot of these designs would look great with some chic layering and accessories. Here are some of my favorite looks from around the web.

Now it’s no secret that we love Black Milk Clothing here on Set to Stunning, but with designs like these, honestly, what’s not to love?

DIY Friday: Carved Craft Pumpkin

Halloween is almost here and there should be lots of fun costume parties this weekend. If you haven’t carved your pumpkin yet, or are looking to add more to your decorations, it’s never too late! Especially when it comes to a fun and simple DIY like this.

Craft pumpkins are THE way to go these days when it comes to carving your pumpkin. Not only will they last forever, they’re inexpensive and have none of the messy goop to deal with. Though I do love fresh baked and salted pumpkin seeds…

DIY Friday: Batman Purse Cover

Purse covers are a great solution to get the bag you want, without sewing an entire one yourself from scratch. Plus, you then have the option to make multiple covers so you can change out the look of the purse depending on your outfit or mood.

Here’s a bag cover I whipped up after seeing one my friend Jessica had made.

That being the case, I wanted to post a collection of my recent finds both in store and online so that you have the opportunity to grab things while they’re still around. Some of these will definitely make an appearance in future Stunning Styles! (A special thanks to my husband for being the hand model in many of these photos)

Home is Where the Geek Is

1

While a lot of our focus is often fashion based, we do, from time to time, sneak in some items geared at sprucing up your home. With many stores carrying college items, I’ve gotten a slight case of nesting. (Speaking of, although not geeky, I picked up these pillows from Target and LOVE THEM!) So on that note, I wanted to write a post that’s geared at making your home a little more geek chic!
