Love the first sign!
Nerd glasses – yes, please!!! they’re an absolute trend nowadays! funny how everybody tends to look like a nerd :)
two thumbs up for nerd style! oh yes!
My mom always used to tell me that I should date nerds because they will one day rule the world! I didn’t listen back then, but I did end up marrying one. We’re not exactly ruling the world yet….but someday!
Oh, for sure, for sure! I wonder….to goofballs fit into that category too? :) LOVE those books, wow. And that pencil holder is crazy good. Love this…

Well damn I missed another Blog Mashup. I thought I signed up but I guess I didn’t get it right or I didn’t make the cut. /cries
Oh well. :) Maybe next time.
sorry jenny! there was no ‘cut’ though – all first come first serve. maybe there was a problem with your sign up? i can send you an invite to pinterest, though! just email me.
Those glasses are awesome! Moscot in the LES has some great ones that look a lot like that. They are reproductions from their original 1950s frames. Mine are olive green.
I was always proud of my nerdy craftastical self but I saw myself more like an alchemist. Today, I’m glad I wasn’t part of that cool club in high school because it left me with more spare time to read and bead. While my boyfriend, the true geek, seeks to rule the world from his computer monitor. Anyway back to the response to this blog post: I love the orange pleated skirt! The pictures are always so beautiful and inspiring leaving me with the need to redecorate or renew my wardrobe. Thanks! Loving this post…
Thank you from the glassses wearing 12 year old in me.
