Be My Galentine Mockingbird

For February, the Geek Fashion Blogger Alliance theme was Galentines! The challenge was style an outfit based on a lady in fandom that inspires you. I chose to style my outfit after Mockingbird, Dr. Bobbi Morse. She is a scientist, a spy, and an incredible sassy character. Her most recent comic series was tragically short, but was long enough for me to fall completely in love with Bobbi’s character.

Evil Queen and the Poison Apple DisneyBounding

The older I get the more I tend towards the aesthetic and character of the villain in Disney movies. Don’t get me wrong, I still love my Disney Princesses! But I find the villains have much more exciting outfits in most instances. This outfit is styled after the Evil Queen from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, because I’ll take almost any opportunity to wear a cape and this awesome apple necklace!

Closet Cosplay Challenge for January: DC Villain

Sneaking onto the #monclocoscha challenge at the last moment for the January theme with a hastily cobbled together Bombshell Harley Quinn outfit was very satisfying. She’s my favourite version of Harley Quinn and I love this jacket. Any excuse to wear it is a good thing, and #monclocoscha fits the bill. Besides, the theme for January being DC Comics with the optional challenge of Villains. How could I possibly turn that down when Harley Quinn fits that perfectly!

The Day an X-Wing landed at my train station

One morning in early December, bleary eyed form the early hour and not having reached the optimal blood-to-caffeine ratio in my system yet I spied an X-Wing parked at the front of the station! It looked like the pilot had just run in for a morning coffee somewhere and got jack of looking for a parking spot in the city so just pulled up on the station forecourt. Geeky excitement is better than coffee any day!

Nerdvember Challenge 2017 – Week Three

Have passed the halfway point in my Nerdvember challenge and I’m still having heaps of fun! I’m very much enjoying having conversations with people about accessories and clothing as well as the show or book they come from or are inspired by. It has been an absolute highlight of Nerdvember so far for colleagues and friends to greet me with something along the lines of “so what are you wearing today?”
