Fab Finds from Jay Jays

Went to Harbour Town in Perth again... Was actually going there to buy Birthday presents when my boyfriend asked me to buy him shorts. LiLi steps in Jay Jays. 2 hours later I come out with an assortment of clothing, some of which I will share below.

Women's

Men's

Please excuse my dodgy photos and the fact that I did not iron my clothes. They do look better in real life. :D

~~~~~~~~~~

Problem: Jay Jays had a sale - 50% off the already marked down clothing.

This meant the Ladies T-shirts costs $2.50. The most I paid for the Men's T-Shirts was $6. The skirts I purchased only cost $5.

You do have to dig a little because the clothes are literally piled onto one another on tables and they are mountains of clothing. They do stock from size 6-16 for women and go from XS-XXL for Men.

Sales and LiLi mix very well. It just means LiLi spends way too much money. In total bought 8 articles of Women's Clothing, 5 Men's tops and 2 Hello Kitty Watches and it cost me all up approx $60. Thought it was a killer bargain day!

If you got the time, spend as much as you can really hunting for some clothes that you like. Currently, I like to go for patterned clothing. I should also note, that Jay Jays were selling jeans and denim shorts for like $10 but I couldn't be bothered trying them on.

Tighten Me Up

Went to work today for St Patrick's day and one of my best friends had the coolest tights. It was black with green clovers on it. This gave me the idea of fashion tights and finding some fun, feminine and fashionable tights.

Tights are great because you can turn a boring outfit into a bizarre, eccentric or interesting ensemble. There are so many online stores selling sheer tights in bright colours but for this edition, I thought about different patterns that you don't normally see.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Floral Print Microfiber Tight

These tights remind me of Asian floral prints. It comes in Fuscia, Bronze and Platinum. I found these from Foot Traffic. I adore Foot Traffic as there is quite a good range of socks, leggings and tights. These tights cost US$12. I like them because they are Hot pink and goes perfect with any black or pink outfit. You can match it to most coloured outfits just to make it more fun!

Sexy Tattoo Sheer Pantyhose

Found these amazing pantyhose from Artisan Socks for US$7.50. I liked the faintness of the stocking and having a tattooed look without getting any needlework done. I think it's great to add to a nice black dress or if you want to go more punk rocker, then that would work too. I like how it is subtle and not over the top.

Splash Color Tights

These tights remind me of a cool skater or punk chick. I love them because they are bright and in your face. This specific tight comes in so many colours and designs - it's great! Found these at We Love Colors for US$11. Good thing about this site is that you can buy in bulk or individual items.The colours also are very complimenting to one another on each tight design. Good fun!

Sparkles and Kisses Tights

Who doesn't like kisses? This pair of tights  add a little bit of cuteness to an outfit. Found these on ModCloth for $15.99. I think pattern is good as it's not overdone and perfect to spruce up an outfit. I see these tights going well under some shorts and of course dresses and skirts. Great with ballet flats.

Tiffany Quinn Geisha Print Tights

Thought that these tights were very sweet. I don't believe they are too over the top because of the softness of the colours. Found the tights at UK Tights for £6.95 which is approx. AU$10-11. I think these tights would suit best under a skirt or dress. I can't really see it going that well with shorts. There is a really large range on the website - too many to choose from!

Blue Banana Star Tights

I love stars and had to include a pair! Found these at Blue Banana for £3.50 which is approx. AU$5-6. Thought this was a good bargain!! There are a few different designs but not as many as previous listed sites. I think these are cute and fun for just a casual outfit.

Silky Aristocrat Tattoo Tights

Thought that these tights were cute, fun loving and dainty. Found these at Sock Shop for £5 which is approx. AU$7-8. They have a lot of tights on sale so can nab yourself a bargain. I think these tights are very versatile in what you wear it with.

The Red Velvet Rose Tight

I really like these tights because I think they are a bit sophisticated. They have a subtle elegance, femininity and uniqueness. I found this at Karma Loop for US$12.95. It's best if you use the search engine and type in leggings or tights to look at the range on sale.

Abstract Color Tights

I am not sure why I like these tights but I feel like I am staring into one of those 3D pictures and you need to try and find the hidden picture. They also look dainty because of the soft colours. I found these for $15 from K Bell Socks and I can't seem to stop staring at them. They have me mesmerized.

BLACK SHAMROCK TIGHTS

Found these amazing tights from Carrolls Irish Gifts - the ones my best friend wore. These costs approx US$8. Thought they were fun and bright. Perfect for St Patrick's day or just for fun. This shop is not a tights store but specializes in Irish gifts. So there isn't a range of fashion products but novelty gifts.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Be creative! There are so many patterns and designs that you can play with and give you ideas on how to dress up some of your outfits!

The tights I listed are not over expensive and they all ship to Australia and the US. Some sites did offer cheaper shipping when spending a certain amount at the store.

My Favourite Perfume Right Now!

Moroccan Rose Eau de Toilette

My Sister bought this as a Christmas present and I love it to bits!

You know that nice aromatic smell you get after you have had a full body massage and you want that scent to linger a bit longer because it is so relaxing? Well this perfume is your answer.

It's a light scent that is very soothing and makes you happy because it is enriching a the same time. It captures the rose essence but also has a vanilla and musky smell. It is fragrant and sweet and I believe it to be stress relieving.

It costs AU$31.95 from Body Shop and you can buy off the website with Free Shipping with over $150 spent or go to your local store and grab it.

Definitely a highly recommended perfume!

Get Your Geek On!

So you start dating that hot nerd because they are the latest fashion accessory and you think to yourself what to buy for them? Here are some options for both guys and girls that might take your fancy.

Nyan Cat Necklace

Nyan....Nyan...Nyan... This necklace costs £12.99 which is approx. AU$20. Found this at YummyClay at Etsy. Other shops selling handmade Nyan Cat necklaces include Olechka Design, Lilith Ruby and Kawaii Panda Shop.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Backpack

So I actually wanted to buy this from the official Jenna Marbles merchandise shop but unfortunately they are sold out. It costs $US40 and comes with the ninja turtles masks. Then I thought 80sTees had come to the rescue but they were sold out too. Luckily Bioworld on Amazon have them for US$49.48. You can purchase these backpacks at a local comic book store but if you really can't be bothered trying to search for it, waiting for them to come in stock online is always your option.

Nintendo Socks

Found these for US$10 each from 80sTees. Bargain! Can buy it for that Mario freak! I think the bad guys socks are really funky and cool. I personally think this would suit a girl rather than a boy but you never know, a guy may be able to pull it off.

Star Wars Boba Fett Ball Cap

Found this at Hot Topic for US$24.50. Thought it was an awesome find because it comes in Darth Vader and a Storm Trooper. There are pretty good geeky finds on this website with great gift ideas! Plus the shipping is really low too.

Geek Tees

I like random T Shirts as much as the next guy. I like them funny, different and cool. These shirt designs I found from SnorgTees ranging from US$9.99 - $19.99. I usually check out and buy from Threadless, Busted Tees and 80sTees but there are so many websites these days, that you just have to search properly and find what suits your taste. Good gift idea for people that appreciate a bit of fun in their life. Also, if you do sign up to these type of websites, they will usually send you specials and sales that occur so it's good to save extra dollars.

Caprica Graystone Toaster

Ok so not really a fashion accessory but I had to include this - Graystone Cylon toaster!!!! Now, I couldn't find the Cylon toaster from the newer Battlestar Galactica series but this cost US$19.99 down from $65 from NBC Universal Store. Thought it was rare to see it so cheap but I am sure you can buy other Cylon toasters from Ebay. I can't for the life of me find it but managed to find this Toaster from the Caprica series.

Gryffindor Scarf

Universal Orlando sells many official Harry Potter merchandise. Depending on how much you spend depends on how much the shipping costs are. This scarf was US$34.95 but for those hardcore fans, it may not be much in terms of costs. I found some pretty cool items such as Crest Pins for $9.99, Robes for $99.95 and Remembrall for $12.95

Power Ranger Sexy Tank Dresses

Thought this was pretty cool because it's power rangers! Found this at TV Store Online for $33.95. They also sell them in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the same price but it comes with the ninja mask. For the geek girls that like dressing up or for the boys to buy the girls for some fun ;)

TMNT Raphael Peruvian Cap

I love this cap! It's perfect for winter or just wearing for fun! It costs US$17.99 from Super Hero Stuff. There is so much cool things to buy from this website including T Shirts, Belts, Flip Flops, Caps and Underwear. I like this because it's Ninja turtles. Unfortunately it only comes in Raphael but it's still cool!

Superman Symbol Gold Die Cut Cuff Links

Perfect for the Geek Business man. The Cuff Links cost US$24.99 from Super Hero Stuff. You could probably retrack a previous post here for more cuff link sites that offer super hero symbol cufflinks.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So there you have it. I tried to give a good range of geek fashion accessory ideas that you may have not thought of before. It's all in good fun and there are so many amazing products that capture everyone's geeky interest.

Coolest Find of the Month - February

So just like my other post, this is late due to my computer issues but I found this cool item long ago and wanted to share it in February.

This is an amazing product created by Kevin Murphy. It is called Color Bug and was created because he wanted to add wild coloured hair to his models on the runway but no hassles in applying it and removing it.

He wanted it to be like make-up, in that it's a fun way to add colour to ensemble or if you just feel like having crazy coloured hair for a day - that'll work too.

Here is the video of Kevin demonstrating how to apply Color Bug to different coloured hair. He even tells you what products to use in order to get the colour to set and how to work in intensifying the colour.

So the product costs $24.95 and you can buy it from most online hair styling or beauty stores. Some suggestions include Adore Beauty, My Haircare or Daly ST Salon. This hair shadow is easily removed by washing it out in the shower. I think depending on how much you use, you could easily get multiple applications out of the one tub.

I think it's quirky and fun and is a great way to spruce up your outfit!
