Okay, so...

I really shouldn't be making more Polyvore sets. I've just been using it a procrastination tool. Like, if I want to wear cute outfits like that why don't I focus on making myself cute first?
Of course, you all know the answer: "But you're already so cute, Julia!" jkjk, I'm just lazy and don't feel like I need to be cute if I'm not in costume. But if I wanted to be cute out of costume, here's some outfits I'd wear:

The dress was pointed out by Miss Betty Felon on her blog and I just rolled with it (geddit? cause racecars have wheels and wheels roll?) In place of a neckerchief, I thought one of those headbands with ties up top would be cute. And you all know how much I love red tights.
This one's for my lovely sister because you all know how much she loves Hawkie-poo. I'm thinking how hard would it be to recreate the dress (since it looks like it sold out a long while ago and I can't find it on ebay). And the earrings are ones that my sister got after she fell in love with Hawkeye so it fits.

This isn't my first time posting about Animal Man and admitting that I haven't read any of his comics yet (but I do want to). It mostly came about because I saw that shirt and my first reaction was "Animal Man!" I actually would have gone with shorts on this outfit if I could find any the right orange. I don't know why but I think peplum tops with shorts are cute.

I love Jaime and I've been meaning to make another Blue Beetle dress but this is already so cute. I don't even know what I was looking for when I stumbled upon this dress. Of course there's gotta be a ton of accessories with Egyptian scarabs.

Dick Tracy

For some reason, I've liked Dick Tracy for a while. No idea why, but I really do. And I was looking through ModCloth (because they've been really good at making things that remind me of geeky characters) and saw this dress out of the corner of my eye. Isn't it almost perfect?

Wreck-It Ralph



I don't suppose I ever mentioned that I got to see Wreck-It Ralph a week before Monday. Well, I did. And I haven't stopped thinking about it since. (the only problem is that it has reawakened the gamer in me and now I want to spend all my time playing my DS)
The other thing I forgot to mention is that I made a Polyvore account a while back.
Like always, one thing led to another:
One dilemma is that overalls are so out of style that it is part of what gives Ralph a retro charm. Here I substituted a skirt (because I like skirts) and suspenders. The hulk keychain is to call back to Ralph's giant hands. The shoes are a nude platform which will be subtle and yet help with portraying his taller stature.
 
 Ralph's design was super easy and plain, so I went as casual as possible here. For some reason, I felt like a skirt would look bad for this outfit. I dunno. And a little gold hammer necklace because I don't need to explain that.

Since Vinellope wears kinda plain clothes, I decided to deviate most here. I replaced her hoodie with a cute mint sweater (because I'm really big on sweaters now). Since the ties brought a pop of color, I added a pink bowtie. Cookie earrings because the outfit itself does not scream "sweets" without something obvious. And striped tights because they're cool.
