    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!

    Although her big VMA moment may have been stolen from her, I'm more than ready to give Taylor Swift her much-deserved video props! After all, it takes some serious talent to make a role as the ultimate bookworm as heartwarmingly adorable as she does. In her award-winning video "You Belong With Me," Taylor goes geeky and shows that you don't need to be cheer captain to win over the quarterback -- just be your adorable girl-next-door self! She's so endearing, in fact, that I'm ready to break out my inner nerd in hope of finding my own Prince Charming! Cady in "Mean Girls" learned the hard way that disguising your smart side is no way to make a guy swoon, so take after Taylor and embrace your closet geek in a modest button-up blouse or marching band jacket... then go glam in a gorgeous night-out dress that'll wow them when they least expect it! Click "See Video" to watch Taylor's cutest video to date, then scroll through the slideshow for some looks that'll take you from your desk to the dance floor! Photo Credit: MTV.com

    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
