nerdy nail art

I've recently become absolutely obsessed with nail art. And since I'm too chicken to get a tattoo of a triforce, I'm going to have to resort to a less permanent option for body art. Here are some of my favorite nerdy nail designs:



Wonder Woman via Lacquerista


Tron via Lacquerista

Mario Bros via flickriver






My next project: painting my nails to look like R2D2. Stay tuned!

sweet pixel sunglasses


There's nothing I like more than a good blast to the past, and these pixel sunglasses do the trick. Unfortunately they'll set you back almost $300, but check out the store anyway for some other really awesome shades. For now, I'll stick to pining over the pair of Schwoods I so desperately want. No pun intended.

japanese cooling foam



Sometimes when I sit here at work I forget that its actually hot outside. So if I ever end up venturing out of my office (closet is more like it), this would be handy. What may look like shaving cream is actually a new kind of foam that cools the person it is applied to. As the foam sits on your skin, tiny air bubbles expand and pop, releasing cool air. Unfortunately, only available in Japan.
