Darth Vader + Luke Skywalker

Now presenting.....the finale to my Star Wars-inspired series! If you'd like to the see other characters, click this link.

Darth Vader by lovecrys featuring a chiffon shirt

Darth Vader is perhaps the most infamous villain in movie history. He's got a cool cape, a tough, cool exterior, and he also sounds curiously like Mufasa with a respiratory disorder.

Luke Skywalker by lovecrys featuring a maxi skirt

Luke Skywalker hails from the desert planet of Tatooine, so a Luke-inspired outfit had to be loose, flowing, and boho-themed.

Which outfit is your fave?

Zig-a Zig-ah [An Homage to the Spice Girls]

I'm a born and bred 90's kid which means I was OBSESSED with the Spice Girls! I collected the Spice Girls lollipops and the stickers (is it just nostalgia, or were those the best lollipops ever?). I used to know all of the dances. I watched Spice World over and over (time to bust out ye olde VHS again!).

I loved the Spice Girls' style. There was my personal fave Scary Spice, with her amazing conical/curly hair and her love affair with animal prints. Ginger's iconic flag dress. Baby's slip dress and platform shoes. Sporty's track pants and Posh's LBD. In honor of their [amazing] performance at the closing ceremony of the olympics, I've presented to you a few things inspired by my childhood icons.

Were you as big a fan of the Spice Girls as I was? Who was your favorite?

P.S. Please share this post if you liked it!

Chewie+Yoda

Chewbacca by lovecrys featuring a faux fur vest

Chewie's got a lot of long luscious hair so he's clearly a high-maintenance diva. And high-maintenance divas love their fur vests, ya'll. More evidence of Chewie's diva-ness? His utterly unique voice. I see a grammy in his future! Move over, Adele!

Yoda by lovecrys featuring leather jackets

Yoda is pretty mysterious. No one knows where he comes from or even what species he is. What we do know is that he seems to harbor a fondness for swamp planets and odd sentence phrasing. Yoda is down to earth but powerful., so the outfit has a loose blazer and some structured wedges, all in earth tones and greenery.

Han Solo and Princess Leia

As promised, here are the next two sets inspired by Star Wars characters. I guess it's turning into a series, so I'll be putting the rest under the label of "Star Wars Saga."

Han Solo by lovecrys featuring skull jewelry

~~Indiana Jones~~ Han Solo is a legendary character, known for his sarcasm, effortless cool, and his ever-present handgun. This outfit is easy to move in (more ease in getting around the galaxy in that Millenium Falcon!) while still maintaining some of that cool toughness Han exudes.

Princess Leia by lovecrys featuring bustier tops

Leia Organa is incredibly intelligent and outspoken. Even she, however, found herself held captive and enslaved by Jabba the Hutt. Leia's metal bikini is one of the most famous outfits in cinematic history. I admit, I didn't quite know what to do with this iconic outfit, but I like the result :)

Personally, Han's outfit is my favorite. What's yours??

These are the Droids You're Looking For

Hi! Here are the first two of a few sets I'll be doing inspired by Star Wars characters! I originally started out with just Darth Vader (I really wanted to do a cape dress, what can I say?) but then I had to do them all. Here are the droids!

C-3PO by lovecrys featuring slim fit pants

First up is C-3PO. This character's a little buttoned-up, very concerned with protocol (which is what happens when you're a protocol droid), yet still eye-catching. He is, after all, covered in head to toe gold.

R2-D2 by lovecrys featuring a blue shirt

R2 is a down to earth droid with a sense of humor and a little spunk. An outfit inspired him has to be kept pretty casual, but still have that little quirk ;)

Anddd, that's all folks!

Summer 2012: Colors and Patterns

Summer 2012: Colors and Patterns by lovecrys featuring pink shorts

Neons, florals, ombre, and mint are everywhere this summer. Which one is your favorite?

Nautical by Nature

Here's Part Three of my ongoing Sailor Series! Ask any of my friends and they'll be quick to tell you that I am obsessed with all things nautical. Sailors, anchors, all of that. I couldn't tell you how I became obsessed or why I have this need to pick up anything and everything that has a red and white stripe on it. (Seriously, I bet they could even sell me men's deodorant if it had an anchor on it!)

Floral Pants

Floral Pants by lovecrys featuring j brand jeans

Florals are a huge trend this spring/summer and to me, at least, the most difficult way to pull it off is on your legs. You want to make a statement without looking like you're wearing a kaleidoscope. So...I've injected a few other trends, a touch of elegance, and boom! Here's how Fashionably Geeked would do floral pants! Enjoy.

Fighting Evil by Moonlight

Welcome to Part One of my Sailor Series! What better way to start this series off than with my favorite childhood cartoon, Sailor Moon?

When I was a kid, my sister and I were obsessed with Sailor Moon. We rushed home every day after school to watch the Sailor Scouts fight evil with Tuxedo Mask. We knew the whole theme song word-for-word (I'm not ashamed to say that I still know the theme song) and we loved Sailor Moon's hair and outfits. When I was a ten year old aspiring artist and fashion designer, the first thing I tried to draw was Sailor Moon. Needless to say, I had no talent and my brief sketching career ended there. Still though, I do love Sailor Moon's outfits and her meatball head. Rather than regale you with a poor rendering of Sailor Moon, I'll present you with a summery outfit inspired by her.

And yes, I'd wear this in real life.

Sailor Moon Style by lovecrys featuring metallic sandals

So tell me, guys, what were your favorite tv shows or characters growing up?

Yellow and Blue

Yellow and Blue by lovecrys featuring coin bags

I meant to do another outfit post this week, but I've been sick. So, instead, here's another polyvore set for you guys to enjoy!
