Every once in a while too horrific happens, and I have to dress up.  And not just jeans instead of yoga pants paired with one of my nicer pop culture tee shirts instead of an older faded one. I mean shower, dust off the heels, wear grown-up stylish clothes, and possibly apply make-up.  But even though I’m all dressed up, I still want to be me. So how do I honor my geeky fangirl soul and fit in at whatever function I’m being forced to go to?</p>
<p>Thankfully there is  <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/ReadingFanGirl" target="_blank">ReadingFanGirl</a> on etsy. She has classy, beautiful jewelry that is subtle enough to pass inspection from the non-geeks but fangirly enough that other geeks in the room will send you nods of camaraderie, as they too have been forced to conform for the night. </p>
<p>Rose Brown creates Harry Potter jewelry such as Hermione’s Time Turner. </p>
