Re:Nerds, it's time to up your fashion game. on Wednesday August 08, 2012 @11:20AM (#4356025)

This isn't fashion advice for nerds. Becoming traditionally fashionable will render nerds un-nerdy.

There's nothing wrong with fashion blogs, but this feels like it's aimed at what the author perceives as being low-hanging fruit / easy pickings. It feels a little bit condescending.

There might be a market here, but I don't think this site has the tone quite right (yet).
