Guest Post: Geek Chic Decor

Dec 19. 2011

Today, I am featuring a guest post by Kristin of Bien Living Design, an interior decorating service based out of Chicago. Kristin is a firm believer that great style can be had without breaking the bank, and that everyone can and should have access to an interior decorator, which is precisely why she launched her Long Distance Design service.

Enjoy this post, and be sure to check out Kristin's blog for more great ideas! I am really excited to guest post on Geek in Heels!...

If you can recall, the dress represents Katniss's transition from an outdoorsy tomboy to a powerful, kickass woman, and her appearance in the firy gown is when the people of Panem begin to take notice of this underdog. And just in case you don't quite remember what the dress is supposed to look like:

I am dressed in what will either be the most sensational or the deadliest costume in the opening ceremonies. I’m in a simple black unitard that covers me from ankle to neck. Shiny leather boots lace up to my...

Exhibit B: The Comic Sans Project, which takes famous logos and replaces their proprietary fonts with — you guessed it — Comic Sans. Because, as their motto states, "Helvetica is sooo 2011." :-D Here are some of my favorites from their front page, and be sure to follow the Comic Sans Project on Tumblr for more. Via Flavorwire....
