I don’t know about you, but I do love to save some money. Problem is, I also love to shop for new nerdy-themed wardrobe items. The good news/bad news in that is that now, more than ever before, we have really good choices!
But, let’s say there’s nothing new catching your fancy out there on the interwebs, but you still have an event coming up. You need to put on something new. What is a nerd to do?
Well, try shopping your closet. I recently had WonderCon coming up, and I wanted to dress in dapper/pin-up styles the whole Con, but I didn’t have enough pieces. I couldn’t find anything I liked really, so I decided to shop my closet. After all, I have a ton of pieces, so maybe I could put together something with what I already had. Guess what? I did just that, and now I have a new go-to fave, this Black Widow bound!
Here’s a Team Build break-down:
The Leader– Skirt from Amazon
The Brick– T-shirt and shrug from Torrid
The Scientist– Shoes by Converse
The Exotic– Arrow Necklace from Amazon. Belt from Amazon
The Blaster– My everyday make-up look
The best way to do this is to take something you really like and challenge yourself to find something in your closet you’ve never paired it with before. If you usually wear something with jeans, then try pairing it with a skirt and vice versa.
I put together pieces that I didn’t buy to go together here, for this Tony Stark bound…
Here’s a break-down of this look:
The Leader– Jacket from Her Universe
The Brick– Dress by Steady Clothing
The Scientist– Shoes by Converse
The Exotic– Belt from Amazon. Arc reactor necklace from Amazon
The Blaster– My everyday make-up look
I recently did a Team Build break-down of my bobby soxer Avenger look here.
Have some fun with it, and you’ll be surprised at what you find!

Happy closet shopping!
