Hey there Lil Miss Nerdette ! Is this your style ?

This geeky Chic style has hit the streets and it’s been a while now, yes everyone is into expressing their inner geek ! haha

So when I say Nerd, What image pops into your head ?

A geeky, unpopular loser buried in a book in a library ?

Someone a bit like Ugly Betty?

This stereotypical image probably came from those negative connotations growing up right ?!

Well believe it or not, it’s actually cooler to be intelligent.

This style is best brought to life with mismatched colour combinations, “off-kilter silhouettes”  with retro prints, and a touch of 60’s nostalgia.

I absolutely Love this style – It’s preppy yet quirky – contradiction much ! Totally my style, it’s two faced !

So Lets have a look at our Geeky chic checklist !

Collars |  Button up shirts |  real nerdy | big glasses | vintage looking | high-waist pants and skirts | belted looks | sweaters | knee high socks 

Crisp looks for shirts are always best – Even go a little further and get a different collar style like a peter pan collar ! If you are into the chic aspect, you can always add a stunning necklace or a thin scarf to dress it up and flaunt your Collar !

Belted looks add a nostalgic touch, especially when they are accentuating a womens waist !

Try your nearest thrift store, antique shop, or Op Shop for worn out, vintage looking belts – something leather with a bit of age

If you like a more crisper, on trend – modern chic geek look, you can also wear denim – just add a belt

Close the look with some socks – ultra geeky !

You can also mix it up with stockings and shorts.

Overall Style look –

oh and one more thing – the hair … Untamed, Bad hair day kind of look. Messy ponytails, or fishtails and braids that are falling apart
