    No matter how much you try to keep your inner nerdiness and Facebook addiction on the down-low, we are living in a digital age, so it's about time you openly embrace it -- in and out of the closet! While all this fuss about portable HD camcorders and YouTube videos and TV channels may make pixelated images a thing of the distant past (reserved for old school Pac Man machines), digital prints are making a comeback in the form of clothing and accessories! This Pixelated Stretch Dress by Nicole Miller is perfect for the computer nerd who really knows how to clean up, and this Pixel Flower Necklace will have you rubbing your eyes in confusion... in a good way! Take a look at the slideshow for some of my favorite pixelated prints that will play all sorts of geeky tricks on your eyes.

    Jenni Kayne is best known for her classically chic pieces that are a perfect fusion of wearability and edge. For Fall '09, she added some nerdy touches to her designs, including large rimmed glasses, menswear inspired pants, and boyfriend blazers that look oh-so-cool and perfect for fall. A loose fitting leather mini skirt paired with opaque tights is sexy enough for night, yet the roomy fit and the covered legs make it totally day appropriate as well! Pair the skirt with a bone colored draped tee and a black boyfriend blazer when the winter chill starts to roll in for the perfect sexy nerd look. The final touches? A large wooden bead necklace and some totally sexy nerd round-framed spectacles. Check out the slideshow to see how to get the look yourself!

    Back to school season, and all the planning that goes with it, is right around the corner and for many, the main concern is not upcoming classes, nerve-racking tests and potentially scary teachers. The biggest worry is what to wear! That first day of school outfit is important and can define who you are for the rest of the school year, especially if you're the new kid or an underclassman. It's important to be trendy, but not look like you're trying to hard. One must be an effortlessly chic fashion queen. The last thing you want to be known as is a geek! Or do you? What if the latest trend is a nerdy style and to show how fashionable you are, you're taking tips from what used to be the outcasts? Geek-chic is in so think rimmed glasses and loafers as the new staples and make room in your closet for a sudden influx of cardigans and sweater vests! The trick is to take the nerdy look and add subtle sex appeal with a few key accessories and some interesting colors and patterns. For tips and ideas on how to make the geek-chic look work for you, check out the slideshow!

    Who Was Most Chic She-Geek At This Year's Comic Con?

    If you're not familiar with Comic Con, despite what the media and the fangirls may have misled you to believe, it is not actually a weekend-long festival dedicated to shirtless film clips of Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner (believe me, I would have been there if it was). The annual event, which took place in San Diego last weekend, has traditionally served to honor the best in comics, action figures, superheroes, and anything sci-fi and fantasy in film and television... and boasts the biggest concentration of nerds in one place next to a Star Trek Convention (I say that with love). However, ever since the recent rise of R-Pattz, Comic Con has gained a much broader following among the preteen female fanatic demographic, much to the disgusted dismay of faithful convention-goers who preferred the event before it was tainted by anything "Twilight." But the event wasn't all vampires and pocket protectors. Sexy Hollywood starlets like Scarlett Johansson and Megan Fox helped add a little style sense to the arena while promoting sci-fi flicks "Iron Man 2" and "Jennifer's Body," respectively. But who held up the fort most fashionably for the girlie-geeks? Vote below on who you think made the most supernaturally sexy appearance. Photo Credit: PR Photos

    Clueless as to what to get your geeky step brother or your tech-savvy boyfriend? This is probably the best year ever to get them some of the coolest gadgets out there! Get in line now for Amazon's Kindle, a revolutionary wireless reading device that lets you download books directly to the reading device. Get him something cooler to attach to his belt than his iPhone, like a flip video recorder the size of a digital camera to record all those holiday memories. Or get him Polaroid's new portable photo printer that plugs directly into your camera and lets your print pics on the spot (proof to show Aunt May that her holiday sweater does make her look like an Ompa Lompa!) These gadgets are so cool, you might even want one for yourself too! Check out my slideshow for my top gifts for the geeky guy!
