First Emo haircuts came under fire, now it’s skinny jeans. According to Dr. Karen Boyle from Greater Baltimore Medical Center, tight jeans can press on a nerve in your thigh causing numbness, tingling and even pain. This is an actual disorder called Miralsha Parasthetica, and if left untreated can cause permanent nerve damage. You can avoid problems by getting skinny jeans that are a size larger or have a little bit of stretch to them. And, for guys, skinny jeans pose the additional problem of keeping your testes too toasty which lowers your sperm count—so, I guess the solution there is go pantsless?

I can’t get enough of nerdy skirts, and this flouncy TARDIS one is the latest on my wishlist. This charming design is by the seller of the equally adorable R2-D2 and Harley Quinn skirts, and I want them all. This Doctor Who take is available for custom order and just takes 1-2 weeks to make.

Light is the new black and these beautiful dresses are made of nothing more. They are the creations of advertising and art photographer Atton Conrad. He makes the dresses by remotely triggering the camera while painting the light around the model in a blacked-out studio. It’s a shame there’s no way to actually wear these photographic pieces of art.

If you’re more Dark side than Light side, Her Universe has just the shirt you need. The Sith racer back tank is debuting at Star Wars weekends. I’m very pleased that it’s a wicked style rather than having a silly phrase about the Dark side having cookies.

Most public establishments prohibit you from walking around with machine guns and pistols strapped to your thighs. It’s not right, I know, but it’s the way of the world. These sexy stockings pose the perfect way around the ridiculous sensibilities of modern society. Just don’t wear them on a plane. I can only imagine what the TSA would do if you tried getting through security in these.

I love hipster briefs, I love cool designs, ergo this underwear 3-pack is obviously meant for me. The panties feature three different Wonder Woman styles, and they’re just the sort of designs I want to see more of in ladies underthings. They are snazzy and comfortable. I hope it’s a continuing trend in geeky underwear!
