Geek Chic - Finding the fashion in our favorite characters.

So, this is an abnormally girly topic for my usual fare, but it's been on my mind a lot lately.

When we think of the term "geek chic" immediately the thoughts of black rimmed glasses and suspenders spring to mind. I'm not talking about this type of geekish fashion. I'm talking about finding fashion inspiration from our favorite superheroes and sci-fi characters.

Why not?

So, here are a few to tantalize your taste buds:

Hunger Games - Katniss Girl on Fire

Doctor Who - Weeping Angel

Avengers! 

I'll have to say that this is one of my favorites ways to dress on an everyday basis. Nothing more empowering than a little nod to your favorite superhero. Super geek points to those in the office who recognize the nod. It's a good way to strike up a conversation and find other like-minded people in the workplace and in life. :) 

So, I have a challenge for YOU! I want you to express your favorite cosplay in a fashionable way and send me pics. I'll post the best outfits for all to see! Oh, and here are a couple of my personal favorites:

Chainmail? Oh wait...yeah not that one....

Casual Pond. My Amy Pond batwing red shirt with blank skinny pants and heels. So comfy, and a great nod to the girl who waited. 

My Clara Oswin Oswald nod. Nothing like being able to grab stuff you already own and put it together. Great fall look, and those who know the Doctor can recognize it. :) 

So send me YOUR pics!
