Inspiration: My hair. I didn’t want to wash it so I started going through the closet for an outfit that I would work with a fauxhawk pony tail. Components: Biker-ish boots. “Powered by Stark” from ThinkGeek. Iron Man fingerless gloves I bought from Geeky Mamas when it was still in Cerritos. However, I think they got it from Nerdifacts. And of course, the fauxhawk pony tail, a tribute to Tony’s awesome hair. #Nerdvember Day 25: Iron Man. #settostunning Gloves from @geekymamas_official #marvel #ironman #starkindustries A photo posted by oakley boren (@oakmonster) on Nov 11, 2014 at 8:17am PST Challenges: I...

Inspiration: Well, I’ve got this t-shirt thinking that anyone who’s ever seen The Fifth Element would get it right away. Not so much, actually.

Inspiration: I originally planned to wear my Gold Bubble Sherlock’s wallpaper dress to my friend’s party tonight. But due to my USC superstition of not wearing bra during USC/fucla game, I had to change the idea around. A bra-less flat chest in a tight polyester dress is bad news for everyone. Components: Her Universe Men of Marvel dress which I bought from Hot Topic. S.H.I.E.L.D earrings from Optimystical Studios. Yellow cardigan from Mod Cloth. Boots. #Nerdvember Day 22: #Avengers for a dinner party. #settostunning A photo posted by oakley boren (@oakmonster) on Nov 11, 2014 at 7:03pm PST Challenges: Remembering...

I obliged. #settostunning #pokemon A photo posted by oakley boren (@oakmonster) on Nov 11, 2014 at 7:37am PST Challenges: Finding the right pants. Jeans did not work well with the top.
