The holiday season can be a stressful time of year. Amidst the craziness of booking flights to visit your family, preparing feasts, or simply maintaining your sanity while maneuvering holiday traffic, the last thing on your mind may be finalizing your holiday gift list. Fanboy Comics’ Barbra Dillon is here to help with recommendations for some of the best geeky apparel from WeLoveFine. You’ll be hard pressed to find a geek who doesn’t like showing off his or her nerd pride with a t-Shirt, jacket, or even costume from their favorite properties. – Kristine Chester

Ghostbusters Romper
Recommended by Barbra Dillon
While the female-led Ghostbusters film is still in the works, that shouldn’t prevent my fellow geek gals from initiating their own ghost-hunting adventures! WeLoveFine’s new Ghostbusters Romper provides a form-fitting costume that would be perfect for cosplay, Halloween, or just plain (and comfy) fun, replete with the name tags of your favorite characters, an official Ghostbusters badge, and LOTS of pockets to hold onto your ghost traps until you can get home to the Containment Unit. Sold in a wide range of sizes that will complement all shapes and body types, the Ghostbusters Romper is available at the price of $78.00 (plus tax); however, supplies are limited.
Xavier Varsity Jacket with Pin
Recommended by Barbra Dillon
Before Hogwarts, there was only one school that kids dreamed for the opportunity to attend: Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters! Despite the threat of mandatory time in the Danger Room with Professor Logan, many of us wished that we had some awesome mutant power that would qualify us for entry into Xavier’s special school. Although we may be a bit too old for the Professor’s academy at this point, there is no reason that we can’t still show our school spirit! X-Men fans will love the Xavier Varsity Jacket, which comes with an X-Men cloisonne pin at the price of $49.00 (plus tax). Perfect for doing battle in the snowy winters of Japan or lifting the Golden Gate Bridge on a crisp Fall day in San Francisco, the Xavier Varsity Jacket is one that should make its way to your holiday shopping list.
Loki Helmet Repeat Leggings

Are you a fashion maven with a mischievous streak? Do you like to take the bull by the “horns” when it comes to trying new styles and looks? Well, look no further than WeLoveFine’s Loki Helmet Repeat Leggings! This gorgeous, gold getup will heighten any outfit to godly proportions while clearly stating your allegiance to a certain naughty deity. At the wickedly low price of $34.00 (plus tax) per pair, these Marvel-ous leggings would make great stocking stuffers for the Tom Hiddleston fan on your holiday shopping list.
Schematics Button-Up Shirt
Recommended by Barbra Dillon
If the gentlemen on your holiday shopping list prefer spending their time jetsetting through hyperspace, then WeLoveFine’s Schematics Button-Up Shirt will be the per-fect addition to their wardrobe. Part Hoban Washburne and part scoundrel, this short-sleeved, button-up men’s shirt proudly displays the schematics of Star Wars’ various modes of travel and features custom-made Star Wars alloy buttons. No one will be scruffy looking in this awesome creation! At a cost of $48.00 (plus tax), the geeky guys receiving this shirt for the holidays will be able to make the Kessel Run in only 8 parsecs!
Star Wars Fashions to Rule the Galaxy In
Recommended by Barbra Dillon
These are the Star Wars fashions we’re looking for! From a galaxy far, far away comes WeLoveFine’s Star Wars Boutique Clothing Collection, created in conjunction with Goldie (a label that reflects fan culture through a lens of fashion, cutting-edge design, and fierce style) and debuted at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. This collection of dresses, jackets, leggings, rompers, and t-shirts is fun, fashionable, and practically bursting with the power of The Force. No matter if you wake up on the Dark or Light side of the bed, WeLoveFine has lots of chic designs to display your Star Wars pride. With items ranging in price from $30-50 (plus tax), you will have lots of options from which to choose, especially when complemented with a lightsaber accessory.
