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!

Fashion Week Finale

So fashion week came and went and I mostly celebrated by working long hours at my fashion job.  I did however get to see a few shows along the way, meet a drag queen and bump into lots of old friends.

Here are some pics from my fashion week for those of you wondering what the Lincoln Center area looked like inside…

This is the usual frantic scene of fashionistas.  For more pics of fashionistas inside the tents, check out my FabCam.

For those of you who want the LIVE sneak peek into the fashion tents but don’t  have access to the limited, and coveted invites, check out this recent Wall Street Journal article about how to sneak in!

Did I mention the drag queen?  Drag queens are terrific.  I love makeovers and drag queens are, well the queen of makeovers!

There was a grand entrance for Tommy Hilfiger’s 25th anniversary party.  Check out all the male models!


To really show how over-the-top the entire event’s entrance was, check out this videoclip!
