Revenge of the Nerds

In my last nerd fashion post, I spoke about how nerds ruled the runway and how nerds were featured as popular ad campaigns.  As a continuation, this post features revenge of the nerds on the real-way.  How are real people interpreting the trend?

To me, nerd fashion can be summed up as

nerd=Striped cardigan+ high waisted shorts+ white socks pulled up+ hats with the brims folded up+ round collared shirts+ loafers+ oversized or black rimmed glasses.

Here are pictures of real fashionistas who rocked the nerd look.  Below is Keiko Lynn from Brooklyn, a fellow Chictopian making black framed glasses look ultra sexy.


Another Chictopian pictured above and below, amanda brohman who is wearing white-delias-shirt, blue-cardigan, blue-jeans-brown-mossimo-shoes.

Is anyone else intrigued by this Nerd trend?

And would YOU rock the nerd glasses?

Olivia Palermo, my style icon, rocked the nerd glasses at a NY fashion show recently.

Here’s how fellow Polyvore fashionistas interpreted the trend through online collage sets.  And you know how much I love collages!

Christian Dior oversized purse

So my silly friend emails me to tell me that if I stop by 57th st that there would be a free Christian Dior purse for me to pick up.

Excitedly, I open the picture attachment already envisioning me winning this new purse at Bloomingdales where she works (also near 57th st).  Except I find this gigantic, 1.5 story mock-up fake purse in front of the construction site that is Christian Dior’s showroom and retail space.

I got such a kick out of the joke that I actually did go to 57th st (off Madison) to check it out in person.

No matter how hard I tried to steal the purse, it wasn’t moving.  So finally, I cursed my friend and left in defeat.

Thanks for nothing, Aria!  🙂
