Think that nerd in the back of your math class is cute? Your teacher’s assistant got you blushing? No need to be ashamed! Nerd chic is in! Accessories such as glasses and suspenders are making a comeback this Spring and you can pull them off just as well as that cutie in organic chemistry. There’s nothing easier than slipping on a pair of glasses when you simply don’t have time to put on mascara or donning a pair of suspenders to add a little flair to an outfit. Each piece adds a little personality, and maybe even a few IQ points!

Not only have we seen this new fad donned on celebrities like Justin Timberlake at the Golden Globes and Chris Brown in his “Kiss Kiss” video, but also on your fellow classmates on our very campus. These glasses are so affordable, they can be found at Forever 21, or even almost any dollar store! Or you can go for the pricier option at stores such Ray Ban or Givenchy. Either way you do it, don’t forget to pair it with a pair of high top converses, or a pair of funky colored suspenders for the full effect. Sooner or later, this campus will not only be full of nerds, but highly fashionable ones!
