I’ve been a tweetin’ fool today, so these Twitter stud earrings by Dahlia Shamir particularly resonate. They are simple, cute without being cutesy, obviously relevant to my interests, and perfectly affordable. Wish I’d been wearing these all day instead of dangly vintage clip-ons; those were murder on the lobes!

How’s this for an awesome party idea, and whats more, it’s completely reusable so geeky kiddies of all ages can relive their happy day as ‘Iron Man’ all through the year :-)
Cutesy Crafts designed these Superhero party masks and posted the tutorial and free printable templates on her blog!!
But these needn’t just be for kids parties, how awesome would they be at a music festival? a pub crawl? a superhero masked ball?!?! (yea? mind… blown!)
Guys, can we talk about what Ashley Mertz is doing over at Go Chase Rabbits? Because, it’s like…whoa. Whoa, slow down Ashley because I can’t even keep up with all these cute skirts and I have so many questions: Where is the fabric coming from? How do you have the time to make all these? What shoes would I wear with the Yoshi skirt?
If Yoshi isn’t your speed, 1) What is the matter with you and 2) Ms. Mertz likely has your geek beat covered from Tardis skirts, Pokemon pettis, Star Wars, LoTR…even a periodic table mini-skirt. It’s all there, it’s all cute.
Leave it to Pinterest to offer up a link to some luscious geekery – a unique take on a Superman wedding cake.
Not content to just offer a groom’s cake with a giant “S” emblazoned upon it, this geeky couple asked their baker to create a cake that looked like it was falling apart, with Superman swooping in to save Lois from the falling tier. Apparently the broken cake tier looked so real the DJ at the wedding had to keep announcing the cake was *supposed* to look like that. Well played, cake decorator!

Gaming is not part of my geekness — well, except for Angry Birds. But I do have friends who are quite proficient in various video games and so have heard the term Metroid bandied about amongst them occasionally. However, I did not realize just how cute they could be until I spotted Ellen Kramer‘s series of plush keychains of various characters from video games. For sale in her shop on Etsy called Smellestine, the key chains include Pokeman, Mario Star and Metroid.
This week’s Flickr Friday is brought to you by this amazing shadow box I found in the pool. Kookookitty made this awesome TARDIS themed box. It is fabulous! What else is awesome? Pretty much everything in her Flickr Photostream so you should check it out!
