So every Christmas, I face the same dilemma: what do I get for my fabulously nerdy girlfriend, who has more interests in galaxies far, far away and mythical creatures than in anything you'd find at a regular mall? This year, I was determined not to get her a gift card or a generic piece of jewelry that didn't speak to her one-of-a-kind personality. I wanted something as unique and special as she is, something that would make her eyes light up like the time we first watched "Star Wars" together.
I scoured the depths of the Internet and emerged victorious with cosplay accessories and science-infused trinkets that she's bound to love. For instance, the Cosplay Ishtar Earrings will absolutely thrill her; they'd be a perfect touch to her growing costume collection. And for the days when she's feeling a bit more down to Earth, I found an awesome Apollo 11 Film Reel Lunch Box that'll remind her of her fascination with space. For a touch of holiday spirit, the D20 Icosahedron Ornament is ideal for our geeked-out Christmas tree. And to add a bit of sophisticated geekiness to her everyday wear, there's the lovely DNA Teardrop Pendant that I know will catch her eye. But I can't forget her love for all things Hogwarts, so a cozy Harry Potter Gryffindor Cardigan definitely made the list. Believe me, if you're in the same boat I was, stressed out about finding the right gift for a nerdy girl in your life, check out some of these unique ideas that are sure to impress!
