Ugly Christmas Sweaters… Cute Geek Edition

Saturday, November 7th, 2015

*UPDATE:* This post gets attention every year around holiday season, but the links to these products are from 2015 and many are no longer available!  I am updating it right now with links to the Ugly Sweater category pages for a couple of sites, so that you can at least still track down something cute and geeky even if you can’t find exactly the same print. c:

*UPDATE-UPDATE:* There is now a 2017 version of this post!

It’s getting to be UGLY SWEATER SEASON!!!!  Don’t be left out, and don’t think you can’t squeeze your geeky pride into the occasion.  Teefury can hook you up with dozens of designs – here’s a little sampling of my favorites!

Pretty Pink Sweaters for Princesses!

Thursday, November 5th, 2015

I think you can tell this just from browsing this blog for any amount of time… but my absolute favorite thing is clothes that are slouchy and comfy while still being cute and pretty and girlish… especially if they are pink!

So here is a selection of cozy sweaters suitable for pink princesses!

Pretty Pink Sweaters for Princesses! (1)

Candy Rain Fluffy Pink Sweater with Bows and Pearls

Ohh the bows and pearls make for small details,
but they are SO lovely!!
I love also that this sweater hangs off the shoulders,
which is always stylish~

Candy Rain Pink Batwing Sleeve Bow-Shaped Cardigan

The whoole front of this sweater is shaped like a bow!!
But I think my favorite parts of it are the doleman sleeves,
and the dainty lace that hangs from the bottom edge.

Candy Rain White/Pink Speckle Fluffy Sweater

The white and pink on this almost looks like an animal print,
but I think that they are just speckles!
These fuzzy sweaters look super soft. :3

Candy Rain Fur Trim Pom-Pom Sweater

This is a “pinker” pink than the above photo shows,
it was just taken in warm lighting!
The giant pom-poms on the front are super cute,
and fur trim is instant Winter glam.

Candy Rain Pink, White, and Blue Fluffy Winter Coat Dress

OMG!!  The tri-colors on this are awesome!!
It looks like marshmallows!!
And I can’t believe how pretty the shape of this coat is.
It looks more like a dress!!
This is how I want to look in the Winter!

A couple of days ago I covered a few clothing items from the designer Jem & the Holograms collection on ShopBop – today I’ll be covering these awesome colorful jewelry and accessories!

Jem and the Holograms Designer Collection Jewelry (1)

Jem and the Holograms Noir Jewelry Star Earrings

Jem’s signature “It’s Showtime, Synergy!” earrings,
made over with deep pink rhinestones!
As of the time of me writing this blog post,
there is a warning on the page for these that there is only 1 pair left!!
Grab them if you want them!

Jem and the Holograms Venessa Arizaga Rising Star Necklace and Bracelet

Ahhhh I love the chunky, colorful star charms on this!!
You’d be all jingly-jangly everywhere you go~
But the fun and funky colors are the best part of these accessories.

Jem and the Holograms Noir Jewelry Triple Strand Necklace

A really classy, gold necklace studded with stars and rhinestones!!
This is pretty enough for fancier outfits,
but fun enough to look awesome with a casual outfit –
imagine this chain necklace over a slouchy top!

Jem and the Holograms Venessa Arizaga Glitter Necklace

King of similar to the colorful star necklace above,
but the black and gold coloration of this one make it cooler and classier!

Jem and the Holograms EF Collection Zigzag Ear Crawler

I thought that this was a funky hair clip, but it’s actually an earring!
It looks awesome zig-zagging up your ear lobe!
Zig-zags are one of those memorable trademark 80’s types of designs,
which fairy-kei is all about, but this modern upgrade makes it workable for anything!
