InPlainSight.style Update

Posted on August 27, 2020 by Kimapult

OK, now that the book is done and out in the universe for all to enjoy, it is time to start posting again. I’m going to go slow, dip my toe in the water, so to speak.

Since I have had absolutely NO outside adventures, I will be posting outfits of the day once a week for the time being. If am appearing anywhere to speak about the book, I’ll post about that as well.

Tee is by my fabulous friend, Terri. Get your own here.

Until then, stay safe, wear a mask and socially distance with style!

Love, Kim

About

Kim Henderson McAndrew is an author and blogger known for her bold, self-proclaimed nerdy style and ability to combine cosplay with everyday fashion. Recently, she has begun to integrate goth and kawaii pieces into her wardrobe.

Kim began immersing herself in the world of Cosplay post-divorce upon realizing that she lacked a sense of community or support system. So, she sought out to meet new friends, and in the process, she was introduced to the magical world of costume play. Over time, Kim started to realize that the more she allowed herself to indulge, the more confident and positive she became.

While a lover of the occasional screen-accurate cosplay, Kim used her unique style and love of certain fandoms to create every looks to honor superheroes ‘in plain sight’. Over time, friends and fellow cosplayers started encouraging her to publish a guide to help others learn how to do the same. So, in 2016, she launched InPlainSight.style, an all-ages geek/nerd fashion, mash-up cosplay, bounding and lifestyle blog with an emphasis on body confidence and body positivity.

As the blog’s popularity grew, so did the demand for a book. So, she decided to combine the articles her readers felt most useful, put them in one place into a workbook-type format and this year Kim published her first book, In Plain Sight: Using Everyday Cosplay to Express Your Inner Superhero (2020).

In Plain Sight offers readers a step-by-step guide to getting started with Cosplay, the various types and styles of Cosplay, how to create everyday looks, and the world of Bounding. The book includes shopping guides, sources, convention pack lists, Con pack lists and more.

As time passed, Kim’s style grew to include more of goth styles she loves, as well as sparkly pink and kawaii clothes, so she changed her brand name to “NerdySparkleGoth.com”.

Please take a look around, click on the links to shop around and drop a comment if you’d like. All people are welcome here, regardless of size, age, identity. Remember, clothes do not have a gender, so you can wear anything and everything you want! Let Kim help you find those pieces to look and feel your most confident self!
