You’ve been stealing glances at each other the whole night. All you see is that hot little number with the shiny red dress, everything else is black and white. She finishes her drink, and sashays off to the terrace, the light bouncing off her hips as they sway. You adjust your tie and follow her.…

So we’ve seen gamer cufflinks for the suited folks on formal occasions, but what about the frilly, shiny side of geekery? The answer is presented by Crafster contributor montyfull, who is also a recent fashion graduate. For her senior project, she explored the Mushroom Kingdom side of evening wear.

We already have leather boots and snake skin bags, so why not crocodile skin laptops? Sony Japan’s latest addition to their Vaio laptops don’t really have lizard hide, just plastic made to look like its crocodile skin. Red, brown or pink crocodile skin.

When I think of Louis Vuitton, I usually think of primping poseurs with puny purse-size pekingese – not potty-mouthed pre-pubescents playing PGR, Portal and Prince of Persia. But the minute I laid eyes on this Xbox 360 window-dressing I had to give it a second thought.

Our pals over at Hawty McBloggy spotted this over-the-top Air…

Cheesy emoticons — they’re not just for your IM client anymore. Thanks to ClixWear, you can plaster semi-colon smileys and less-than-threes on your chest (and regions beyond).

Emoticons are designed to help add context and tone to text-based conversations (because it’s important to distinguish between a joke and a dig), but all the winking on these…

In a show of sheer over-the-top ridiculosity, French accessory designer Louis Vuitton created this decked-out iPod carrying case for German fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld.

The custom-made Taiga leather Vuitton case is lined with rich red microfiber, and carries an insane 20 iPods, along with a charging dock, a set of JBL Creature II satellite speakers…

Retro gamer girls – here’s a fun accessory that lets you wear your 8-bit fanaticism on your sleeve (or at least on your wrist).

This handmade Tetris resin bracelet is embellished with a scene from the classic block-stacking puzzler. Created by Warsaw artist Sylwia Calus (a.k.a. “Sisicata”), its painstakingly detailed with tiny colorful bricks, infused…

You may not be into high fashion runway shows, the Spring/Summer 2009 Giles Deacon collection might change your mind. Most of the models wore giant Pac-Man characters on their heads!

Deacon also had the floor painted with imagery that could only be described as Capcom-tastic. It had a giant Pac-Man screen rendered in black, blue,…

I hate the misuse of the word “literally” but in this case I will tell you that you can literally wear the word “geek” on your sleeve. And you can do it with computer keyboard letters, too.

Etsy crafter pipix whips up these sweet tees. In addition to “geek” you can get N3RD, L33T,<B>, ShiftY, CtrlZ,…

Let people know you like to be pushed around with this “Control Me” Atari joystick tee.

While I will admit that the retro video game-themed t-shirt genre is already pretty crowded, I think this particular tee stands out because of it’s rough-edged, hand-drawn graphics and its classic color scheme. Also, like, joysticks and lightning are…

These ostentatious shoes and boots are embedded with working Gameboys. The best part? You can pop out the Gameboys and play with them!

Like almost every other cutting-edge, kooky techno-fashion mashup, these have been spotted on teenage girls in Japan. They don’t look easy to walk in, but that’s a small price to pay while…
