Nerd Out

#NerdingOut is a stylized way to bring nerdiness into your everyday life. On a personal level, it’s also much easier and enjoyable. I’ve tried cosplay in the past, and I didn’t feel comfortable in it. bit.ly/2uMJigf #HarryPotter #WizardingWorld #CasualCosplay

As an accessories designer and a big nerd, dressing up for Cons came very natural. It was not long until I began #NerdingOut as a way of expressing my interests in my everyday style. bit.ly/2GDhSuN @AlstonStephanus #AlstonStephanus #CasualCosplay #FashionDesigner

#LunaLovegood is a beloved character by many. My outfit for this shoot was all about being as low key as possible. The hat, dress, glasses, and necklace were just random items I had in my closet. bit.ly/2uMQGIz #NerdingOut #CasualCosplay #HarryPotter #HPFan

With the subtle nod to the Death Star and the actual Death Star necklace this is a perfect outfit to go from office to movie screening. @ProphecyGirl bit.ly/2q5J138 #NerdingOut #StarWars #DeathStar #GeekGirl

While my fellow @StarWars loving ladies may not have had many options to dress up for the original trilogy premieres, we’re lucky enough to now have @HerUniverse. Not only do they carry everything a nerd girl could... #NerdingOut #StarWars #HerUniverse bit.ly/2q2k5JZ

Show your Serpent pride by slipping on your very own snake skin. We’re here to help you through the initiation with a Southside Serpent/Jughead Jones outfit. bit.ly/2q6bZA4 #HotTopic #Riverdale #RiverdaleStrong #SouthsideSerpent #Jughead #JugheadJones #NerdingOut

Another lovely @HerUniverse find is the Nakia cold shoulder top inspired by #BlackPanther. Add the @Loungefly bag to match and check out @RockLoveJewelry's jewelry collection for Black Panther, which is to... bit.ly/2HO97PT #Avengers #InfinityWar #NerdingOut @GeekFold

To keep that vintage, @DapperDay type feel going I wanted to find some heels that shouted 1940s and I think #PeggyCarter would approve of these lovely red heels. bit.ly/2vtJgu5 #CaptainAmerica #Avengers #InifinityWar @GeekFold #NerdingOut

Everyone's favorite Marvel villain deserves a shout out! This #Loki velvet dress is perfectly mischievous & pretty. A scepter necklace from @HotTopic is a must have for fans of the god of mischief bit.ly/2qKnLR2 @GeekFold #NerdingOut #TomHiddleston #Avengers #InfinityWar

Now you're all set for a night out avenging, or trying to take over the world. I don't judge. Just make sure to look fabulous while doing it! Happy #NerdingOut friends! bit.ly/2qMzRZI #NerdingOut #BlackWidow @GeekFold #NatashaRomanoff

Get classy in our #GuardiansoftheGalaxy outfit. Off the shoulder dress is the perfect base to adorn with nerdyness! @RockLoveJewelry hit it out of the park with their Guardians collection of jewelry and yes, the earrings dance! bit.ly/2HfOlYs #Groot #NerdingOut @GeekFold

A spin off from #CasualCosplay in that the outfits are inspired by your favorite character. But in #NerdingOut it can be as general as an entire fandom (ie. #StarTrek), or as specific as a single aspect of a character. bit.ly/2Hj3cBp #HarryPotter #HPFan #Hogwarts

Remember, #NerdingOut is about the subtle nods to a fandom or character. We’ve put these sets together with a budget in mind. The #Riverdale #SouthsideSerpents T-Shirt from @HotTopic is obviously the center piece. bit.ly/2F3Vdq1 #HotTopic #JugheadJones #RiverdaleCosplay

The center piece is a Sherlocked shirt from @prophecygirlHQ! If you haven’t already checked out our post on her Star Wars inspired line, make sure to do so! bit.ly/2F3YlSK

The blue shirt for the guys is also from @HotTopic. The watch I actually stumbled upon! It reminded me of the title sequence with the gears and it went perfectly with outfit. bit.ly/2HSJGNe #NerdingOut #DoctorWho #EverydayCosplay #Whovians

The #DoctorWho ring set was the inspiration for the whole idea. We included @EspionageMakeup nail wraps. If you haven’t used Espionage before, they are lovely and sparkly! bit.ly/2vv60K5 #NerdingOut #Whovian #CasualCosplay #EspionageCosmetics

+3 to Charisma is a nerdy lifestyle company owned and operated by a geeky woman and her gamer guy who love quality, handcrafted comic book jewelry and accoutrements. bit.ly/2vt1g7O #NerdGirl #GeekGirl #ComicBooks #CasualCosplay #NerdingOut

The fact that it became more about Instagram followers and less about making friends and connecting with others. I set my goal to create an extension of Nerd Out. For people who wanted to find others to do cool nerd stuff with. bit.ly/2IYsTHI #NerdingOut #CasualCosplay

This Polyvore set has been a favorite of mine and I’m so glad to finally share it with you. The center piece is a Sherlocked shirt from @ProphecyGirl! bit.ly/2uN2c6O #Sherlock #SherlockHolmes #221bBakerSt #221B #NerdingOut

This outfit is largely inspired by the mystical elements from @cw_spn, and hopefully soon Wayward Sisters! @HotTopic once again bringing it with their awesome apparel! bit.ly/2HgxqFI #HotTopic #Supernatural #SPNFamile #SPN #WaywardSisters #NerdingOut
