Geek clothes. Rooby Lane

It is always nice to see some geeky designers who do clothes for geek woman. In Etsy shop you can find Rooby Lane, where she can build you any corset you want with the geek fabric of your choice for about $200. I actually have done a corset myself and believe me for that amount of work it is worth the price, it took me about 3 months to finish it.

 She has too pretty skirts with cool geek fabric that varies about $40-$70. Here you can see her Etsy shop and her stuff.

Here you can see some of my favorite stuff, but there is a lot more you can check out.

Lovely Star Trek corset

Blackmilkclothing now goes magic

I wrote about a month ago already about the wonderful geek clothes Blackmilkclothing has and I am happy to announce that not only do they have a Star Wars, LOTR (Lord of the Rings/ The Hobbit), Mass Effect and Sesame Street collection, now they have a HARRY POTTER collection. Here you can see some of the designs. I want to buy something of my house (Ravenclaw).

Harley Quinn inspired shorts

Harley Quinn is one of my favorite characters in Batman and I have been thinking since a long time that I wanted to do some inspired clothes of her outfit.
At first I thought of a dress, like this one of ThinkGeek, but I thought it was too difficult, and I am not that experienced with my new sewing machine.

Then I thought of some leggings, like the ones of Blackmilkclothing, page which I already mentioned in my blog before. I thought too it was too complicated, cause I like leggings to be licra and it is difficult to print designs on it or to paint it.

I checked out some inspired outfits and everything and in the end I decided to do some inspired shorts, using this shorts as an inspiration and some old Tshirts.

I cut out the fabric and then I sew it around the edges of the short, but you can use fabric glue too.
Here is the result, an awesome pair of inspired Harley Quinn shorts.

Geek Jerseys

As I said before in some other of my posts, every day is easier for geeks to find clothes according to their hobbies and most loved theme shows, videogames, etc. The last awesome geeky-clothes website that I discovered was Geeky Jerseys. And as the name says it sells Jerseys, but instead of having your  team on it it has your favorite geek character. You can buy this awesome jerseys for 95$, sometimes you have to wait till a particular Jersey has a minimum of orders, but I think it is worth the pain. Here you can see some of my favorites:

Space Invaders DIY shorts

As a geek woman I don't find that much geek pretty clothes to wear, so I just make a lot of my clothes myself. I upcycle clothes with the touch of geek I need for all my clothes. This summer I did the cutest pair of shorts I have: Space Invaders short. 

I saw this tutorial of tribal DIY shorts and decided to make them because they look adorable.

 I was not sure what pattern to draw, then I thought of something geeky and thought that the Invaders would look awesome. So I got myself one pair of old jeans, I dipped half of them for some hours in bleach and let them dry. Then I got my black fabric pen and, with a stencil I did before hand with cardboard, drew my Space Invaders. 

The result is just fantastic, I hope you try this at home.

Blackmilkclothing

As a geek girl, I find it difficult to find geek clothes that I like, cause the geek clothes are always made for men and you don't really see things that are feminine and geeky. But the the world is getting more conscious that we represent a gap in the market and the clothes that we were dreaming of are starting to become something real. One of the ones making this dream come true is the Australian online shop: blackmilkclothing.  Maybe you have seen already some of the famous Star wars and Lord of the Rings clothing but there is much more.


 Here you see some of my favourite:

I want to have all of them, the thing is they each cost more than 70 Australian dollars (which is about 50 Euros) and you could not buy all of them as many of them are limited edition. But that is something I would totally have in my wardrobe.
