I was given the opportunity to do another shoot with a JumpFromPaper bag, and I decided to use it as a chance to explore the Seattle Geek’s wardrobe. While a standard day has us in jeans and t-shirts, there are days where you’re meeting with a client or giving a […]

OOTD: Ador Launch Party
I attended the launch of Ador, a shoppable fashion magazine, and thought I’d give a go at the whole “dressing fashionably” thing. Since it was the first day of October, I channeled a bit of a goth vibe with all of the black (including wearing black polish on my nails for […]
Closet Cosplay with thredUP: Mal from Firefly
The final item of clothing from my thredUP shopping spree was this awesome brown coat. It’s long, flares out a bit, and will be perfect over dresses/skirts/jeans/anything in the Fall and Winter. It’s also a versatile cosplay piece. I feel like there are tons of opportunities to wear a long, […]
Closet Cosplay with thredUP: Carmen Sandiego
What does Carmen Sandiego do when she wants to go on vacation? She doesn’t want to stay bundled up in a trench and scarf, but she’s gotta stay vaguely recognizable for all of those kids looking for her (which is only a little bit weird). So she trades her […]

I came across these boots on thredUP (brand new, with tags still on) and the fur lining made me think instantly of the badass Ygritte from Game of Thrones. She can keep up with the boys, seduce Jon Snow with a “girl next door that’s kidnapped you” sort of charm, […]
Closet Cosplay with thredUP: Meg from Hercules
I’m back from VidCon and Disneyland, and I did things right: In one day, we rode fifteen rides, caught three evening shows, and had a delightful dinner at Big Thunder Ranch Barbecue, and I did it all in this cute Meg-inspired outfit. thredUP, an awesome new online consignment store, offered […]
OOTD: Comic-Inspired Fashion
It’s come to this. It’s the middle of Comic-Con. I’m tired. I’ve given up on getting my hair to cooperate in the humidity. I’ve wondered why I even thought bringing heels would be a good idea. But, I’ve got panels to attend, the cast of Being Human to interview, and […]
OOTD: Red Hot Viper
Guys, selfies are hard. How do you all do it and look so darn cute? And how the heck are you supposed to get a full body shot by yourself? Anyway, this was my Friday outfit. It was a bit chillier in San Diego, but that didn’t stop me from […]
