While Star Wars may not be my particular brand of geeky, it definitely deserves a nod. Both on this blog and overall in nerd culture. Some could argue (personally, I would not) that it was one of the first franchises to bring geekery to the mainstream. While that may be debatable, the impact Star Wars has had on pop culture is undeniable. It legit took me one Google search and like...20 seconds of browsing to come across some seriously awesome Star Wars merch, collectibles, fun facts, entire Wikipages, forums, pages upon pages of quotes, young Harrison Ford pictures, AND... put together one very cool outfit, using a very Rey- inspired sweater. Complete with Rebel logo. Sellers of this awesomeness, ThinkGeek, warn the wearer to "prepare for all the compliments from friends who have no idea what your sweater is based on". Which really, is the best thing you could hope for. Friends who unknowingly adore your cozy-cute sweater (which is perfect for this nasty transitional weather btw) and friends who get it, gush over it and knowingly love/ want your style.
Win-win.
