Do you consider yourself a real geek? Are you proud of geek etiquette? You may well be cute (or sexy), but embody your "geek" in clothes of the appropriate style. Geek chic uses stereotypically unpopular geek features like glasses, comic books, and computer or video games.

Steps

1. 1 Get cute, but at the same time stylish glasses, whether you need them or not (there are glasses with glasses without diopters, you know). Perform this step as desired. The glasses should fit your face and make you look attractive. They are the basis of the geek-chic style for the girl. Choose the ones that you like. This will help you look more eccentric.
2. 2 Borrow the "stereotypical geek image" but with added style. An image that is based on a lack of fashion sense, or is obviously scientific or old-fashioned, in the style of "bespectacled" or "bookworm". But instead of just bringing the nerd style to life, make it more appealing. Work on a more trendy look while keeping its geeky roots. For example: If you love skinny jeans, wear them with a tight-fitting T-shirt with computer jokes on it, or a blouse / polo shirt with a tie.
3. 3 You can also mix geek style with others. Emo, preppy, gothic, hippie, indie, bohemian, etc. Don't forget about creativity and personality. Nobody likes imitators. But your outfit shouldn't be too trendy.
4. 4 Try wearing tight-fitting clothing that features inside jokes from cult classic movies or books, video games, comics or anime, or you can try something related to computers or science fiction. Be a personality and wear what no one else wears. But make sure that the style suits you and the clothes look good.
5. 5 Mix classic and professional wear with casual. A cute blouse or polo shirt with a graphic tie, jeans, blouses with diamond-pattern vests, pleated skirts, and the like. Experiment. You can wear a T-shirt over a polo shirt, long sleeve shirt, or blouse. Another option is to buy clothes that can be found in the office (blouse, for example), and combine it with an item of clothing that you will not see in the office (jeans). Different styles suit everyone.Make sure you don't look too professional; you want a professional, everyday and bookish look. Explore local shops for the most matching T-shirts and button-down shirts.
6. 6 You, in fact, are not required to go to the full and buy a completely new wardrobe. You can mix and match things you already have. A blouse + diamond-cut sweater combination will work. You can create a busy look by simply mixing in as many colors, prints, and fabrics as you can. But don't forget that these clothes need to have a geeky touch: For example, wear a Super Mario pendant under a T-shirt.
7. 7 If you are wearing a skirt, choose a knee length that is slightly higher or lower, but not too short. A-line, pleated or pencil skirts are perfect for the look. The fabric can be any fabric (denim, khaki, whatever.)
8. 8 Knee-high socks - and you've added a touch of style to your skirt! Match them in different colors, but match well.
9. 9 Get some accessories: you can buy them or make them yourself. They can highlight the theme of your outfit. Maybe a Star Wars lightsaber attached to your jeans? Super Mario watch? Get creative! Leggings can be a little stylish touch. Braces will also do the trick (see below). Jewelry of any type (gold, silver, plastic, hoop earrings, dangling earrings and necklaces) will do as long as they match your face, fit and suit your outfit.
10. 10 Don't wear elaborate hairstyles or too trendy haircuts if you want to look (even more) geeky. Keep your hair tidy, but nothing too glamorous. Curly or straight hair (or even braids that can be worn in a crown shape) are acceptable as long as they look neat. You can wear matching hairpins, elastic bands, and headbands if it goes with your clothes.
11. 11 Just because you're a geek doesn't mean you don't have to wear makeup. If you want, you can, of course, completely dispense with cosmetics, but make-up does not have to be excluded. Use pastel colors, don't get carried away with wild images. You can stick to the "a la nature" image. A little creativity and style doesn't hurt, you can have a lot of fun with makeup, unless it's a carnival look. A little blush. If you're working out, try a gentle lipstick. If you wear glasses, it is a great idea to use eyeliner.
12. 12 If you have an electronic device (tablet, laptop, phone, player), decorate it with accessories to give it style. Go crazy! You don't need to decorate them with stickers; you can just buy a stylish cover or bumper.
13. 13 Shoes: Doesn't play such a big role, in fact. Sneakers are great for the geeky look, especially the Converse. Cleats and shoes with knee-high heels or not may work. Everything will work (unless the heel is TOO HUGE. You will lose your geeky look).
14. 14 (Optional) Add a shoulder bag in a bold and eye-catching color combination. Throw it casually over your chest and you're ready to go out in public! If shoulder bags are not your thing, cute basic backpack designs (plaid or plain - purple, for example) will also work.
15. 15 Jeans: your jeans should be skintight and match your shoes. Try some more with a slightly high waist to accentuate your look.
16. 16 Suspenders: Thick or thin, new or old, solid or colored ... suspenders can really complete your look. Try this look: nerdy glasses, suspenders, knee-high socks and two ponytails. Ideally!

Tips

• Don't be afraid to make your own stuff!
• Google Geek Chic for inspiration.
• Many geek-style looks often borrow elements from various alternative youth subcultures such as emo, preppy, goth, hippie, and bohemian. You can mix it with many other styles. Don't limit yourself!
• But please use common sense. If things don't fit together, don't wear them.
• If you don't think a geek would wear that, this is not geek style.
• (As an option) You can make clothes and accessories yourself, if you have the ability to do this. Just think like a geek.

Warnings

• Stay away from suspenders if you don't know what you are doing or what to wear them under. It can turn you from a geek kid to a geek fashion victim. On the other hand ... if you know a thing or two about geek fashion, don't be afraid of them!
• If you don’t feel like a real geek at heart, it’s risky to try to be one of them. You may look foolish. You can get into a real geek community only at the call of your heart.
• This style is only recommended if you are in university or even younger, or if your profession is compatible with such antics. Geek-chic fashion spread among girls until adolescence. Given that more mature geek men tend to dress and behave more conservatively, geek chic fashion is often associated with "young" and you run the risk of either attracting the wrong type of men or not being taken seriously by the right type of men. Remember that real geekiness is not fashion, but a state of mind.
