It started with big geeky glasses. This year, we spotted them on everyone from Madonna and
Demi Moore to our very own trendsetting founder, Geri Brin. The streets of NYC are teeming with nerdy accessories, from scuffed Oxford shoes and schoolboy blazers to skinny suspenders. Here, our favorite items for introducing a little “geek” while keeping things chic:
1. Madonna rocks out in Buddy Holly "Nerd" glasses.
2. A tailored take on a teacher's sweater: Wool Leather-Patch Cardigan from
Ralph Lauren, $84.99.
3. Glasses that are a class(y) act: Jill Glasses in classic tortoise from
Amy Sacks, $90.
4. A plaid shirt with no place for a pocket protector:
Soft Surroundings, $49.99
5. A sexy take on the schoolboy blazer: "Rory" Two-Button Blazer from
Theory, $375
6. A clever clutch: Book of the Month Clutch from
Kate Spade, $325
7. Shoes for studying in style: Melanee in Cognac Leather by
Steven, $79.20
And while we're on the topic, who's your favorite famous geek?

Geek Chic
I confess I have always had a bit of inner geek, and am enjoying the Geek Chic renaissance. My favorite Chic Geek of all time is also Diane Keaton. it may be cliched to call her style “quirky”, but, the always-inventive Keaton, has refined her unique — and yes, quirky — slightly geeky style with unparalleled panache over the years. Whether she is rocking geek glasses, mens shirts, ties, saddle shoes, hats or gloves, Keaton ALWAYS makes them look cool.
I also have to give props to my girl Rachel Maddow for being ahead of the curve with her geeky glasses, and hip take on off-duty-anchor style.
Liz Lemon chic! At last, a look I can carry off and feel really good with!
My favorite famous geek is Diane Keaton – she rocks her geek glasses!
love it all!
