It’s not always acceptable to show your love of superheros at work. Even on Casual Friday, your Captain America tee might be a bit too casual. These earrings are the perfect solution. They proudly declare your allegiance to the hero of your choice, but so subtly that your boss is sure to be appeased. Discs measure just 1/4″ in diameter and die-cuts are 1/4″ x 3/8″ so they’re small enough to wear to the office any day.

To the casual observer, this is a nice little patriotic bracelet, but to those in the know, it is clearly a Captain America bangle bracelet. It has his signature shield and silver stars and will look perfect on your wrist this Fourth of July. Or, if Gods are more your style, you can opt for Thor dangle earrings complete with lighting bolts and itty bitty Mjolnirs. Either way, your outfit will look perfectly assembled with these accessories.

Charm bracelets are lovely. Adorable video game themed charm bracelets take the cake though. Etsy seller Enrah offers Mario, Pokemon, and Legend of Zelda themed bracelets. Each bracelet comes loaded with cute icons from the games like Goombas, masks, Pikachu, and more. They’re the sort of charm bracelets you can keep looking and finding new things to admire.

I often lament the lack of Star Wars jewelry. I’ve got a few necklaces, and one pair of earrings but I’d love for the Wars to take over the contents of my jewelry box. Etsy seller DonaldJames77 might help with that. He’s cast a variety of Star Wars miniatures into pewter earrings. You can select who you want dangling from your ears from a long list of characters including Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Tusken Raiders, R2-D2, and more!
If the pewter look isn’t your favorite, you can choose to have them finished with a faux gold paint. I like the idea, especially the fact that I could have Darth Vader dangling from one ear and Obi-Wan from the other, but I do wonder how heavy the earrings are. Pewter isn’t exactly lightweight. The designs are so cool though that I’m willing to disregard the practicalities!

Make a bold statement about your Star Wars allegiance with these stretchy bracelets. The chunky designs feature either the Imperial, Jedi, or Rebel logo. And you don’t need to pick just one; all three symbols look great stacked together!

Etsy seller 17thbit created a series of Portal-inspired rings that will allow you to bond with your gamer soul mate. Included in the collection is a Companion Cube ring and a “You Have The Portal To My Heart” example, both of which measure 8 mm in width and are made to order from Sterling Silver.

In Minecraft, you use building blocks to construct pretty much whatever you can imagine. These cute charms are sculpted from polymer clay and hand painted just for you. Though the list is for earrings, you could definitely wear the blocks on a necklace.

Laser cut pendants are all the rage these days, and there is no end to the nerdy designs. I particularly like Etsy seller LicketyCut’s selection. Star Trek to gaming to superheroes, the shop has a bit of everything including these Wonder Woman and Mass Effect designs.
Check out the Wonder Woman pendant after the break along with a pin version of the N7 Mass Effect badge.
Wedding rings are often plain silver or gold bands. There’s something to be said for the classic style, but there’s a lot more to be said for a ring that expresses your love for a fandom as well as your spouce. The designer of the Indiana Jones engagement ring, Homer Liwag, has also designed a Star Wars wedding band. It seems to really tie in the lightsaber hilt look while being subtle. It’s the definition of geek chic.
It would be nice if some these designs were available to the public. There is not nearly enough Star Wars jewelry out there, let alone Star Wars wedding jewelry.

The list of geeky things that should exist but don’t is endless. You can add this TARDIS inspired ring design to said list. Tumblr user Pathetic Peripatetic made the digital rendering in a fit of boredom. The designer states the following about the ring’s features:
“The three round stones are the Police Box sign, the two sets of four baguettes symbolize the windows, and a small princess cut below that to symbolize the instructions found on the front of the Police Box.”
If this design were actually produced, I predict it would be the choice of every companion.
