There are two things I love in this world; glasses and nerds (well, I love more but let’s just use those two examples for the sake of dramatisation). When the two are combined, Ivy’s is heaven. I’ve purchased another pair of black nerd glasses. I can’t help myself! But have you noticed? Nerds are rocking the catwalks and streets! Nerds are the new black. They’re the new acid-wash jeans. The new bohemian. They’re the vogue of 2008. It’s actually cool to be a nerd - yay!

So actually how nerdy do you think you are..? I’ve always seen myself as kinda nerdy. Well, more of a dork. I used to play online games and I’ve recently discovered I love HTML and CSS - I know, I know… Here’s something completely random for you; a test to see just how nerdy you are. I scored 50/100 which means; “Somewhat nerdy. I mean face it, you are nerdier than about half the test takers.” Hmmm.

While we’re on the subject of all things geeky, I decided to make a little nerd-tastic collage. I realise I’m stereotyping here, so I do apologise for that. But don’t be offended if you’re a nerd - you are cooler than you think you are.

I say rock the nerd look.

Big love & may the force be with you,
