RCA Cable Tie Makes Office Geekiness Cute
I don't know if I like the idea of being more inconspicuous with a geeky tie, or if I think you should just go all out and say, this is my RCA Cable Tie ($30), and that's who I am!
The design makes me think these are wearable though — bright, bold primary colors with the simple silhouette of the RCA cables on them.
I mean, if you're going to resort to getting your dad another tie for the holidays, you might as well do something different like this, right?
Salvatore Ferragamo Headphones Tie: Love It or Leave It?
When I hear Salvatore Ferragamo, I generally think "shoes I can't afford," not "geeky ties," but it seems that the renowned Italian design house is now in the business of making my boyfriend happy with this legit tie.
Run-of-the-mill from afar, but when you look close, the subversion begins! Tiny CDs and headphones are printed on fine blue silk.
Geek Ties: Finish Off Your Outfit With Geekery
Not every guy (or girl) is chic enough to pull off the geek tie, but for those who are, there seem to be endless fashion choices. From video game themes, Harry Potter prints, math symbols, retro computer graphics, url jokes, and pixelated images, there really is no end to the geekery.
It's a style that doesn't exactly jive with the J.Crew masses, but if you work in the tech industry, or want a funny novelty tie on deck for parties, you can always find an entertaining geek tie to top off your outfit online.

Do You Think You Could Have a Last-Minute Wedding?
It's only the third season of Gossip Girl and we're seeing Lily wed for the second time — nevermind her countless marriages before the show! When the last-minute wedding fails to materialize, Lily and Rufus make another snap decision to get married that night in the Humphreys' Brooklyn loft with Sonic Youth as the wedding band (weird!).
I like the idea of a spontaneous wedding, especially when you've had an on-off relationship for 20 years, but I'm not sure I could actually go through with it.
Geek Humor: Get Your Youtubes Tied!
One of Tracy Ullman's best impersonations (in my mind) on her new show State of the Union has to be blogger Arianna Huffington. It's pure genius and reminds me of all the times I've ad libbed tech terms into everyday conversation and gotten confused "huh?" responses from my audience.Royal College of Art Menswear MA
I wouldn't normally share menswear designs with you, but yesterday the Royal College of Art's graduate show included a high amount of pieces for guys and they were so good that I couldn't resist sharing them with you. The womenswear was good, but it was really the creativity here that impressed me.

Geeks We Love: Kevin Hall of Dvice
I check in daily with Dvice, not only because of its gadget coverage, but also because of its sweet sci-fi influence. So just in case you aren't familiar (and if not, why?), let me introduce you to one of Dvice's endearingly geeky contributors — and one of this year's Geeks We Love — Kevin Hall. Recent Brooklyn transplant, this geek hottie has traveled the world, seen (almost) everything, and can still say that robots are his favorite thing .
Geek Accessories: Chic Flair For Everyday
I shared my favorite geek ties with you readers earlier this week and many of you noted that you're, well, not exactly tie wearers. If you're decidedly female and don't rock the 2002 Avril Lavigne look, or if you're a fella who hates that office-geek look, consider the many other geek chic accessories out there.
My all time favorite geek accessories fall into the geek jewelry category.
Gossip Girl Tech Quiz: "Gone With the Will" Episode
Family ties bound last night's episode of Gossip Girl, which was hot hot hot — gorgeous, candy-colored cell phones at every turn! It was a geek's dream (and a fashionista's; check out CelebStyle for last night's looks) and I ate up every minute of it. If you did too, then take my tech quiz and see how well you paid attention.
Gossip Girl Beauty Quiz, Episode 13: "O Brother, Where Bart Thou?"
I've gotta give them credit 'cause Gossip Girl always keeps me guessing. This week's episode packed in such a punch – a wedding and a funeral! – that I'm not sure how I can last until the new year to see the plot ends all tied up.
