MallGoth emporium Hot Topic sells a $54.50 Princess Leia hoodie with integrated hair buns. I'm thinking mother's day.

STAR WARS HER UNIVERSE PRINCESS LEIA GIRLS HOODIE (via Geekologie)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

    It looks a little like an Admiral Ackbar hoodie…

       IT’S A TRAP!

      Jimmy Pop has never looked hotter.

  • Wingnut

    I would feel like a complete nerfherder if I wore that…

    • Mark_Frauenfelder

      I’ll bet you’d look great in it!

      • Antinous / Moderator

        I would wear it, but I’d want weaponized buns.

           You mean yours aren’t already?

  • moosestudiospottery

    it would look great with the Taun Taun sleeping bag/carcass

    I like it. It does look like Admiral Ackbar though, which is pretty funny. I’d laugh if someone wore it at a convention as an Ackbar costume, you would just need to add the chest insignia. The wearer’s eyes become Ackbar’s nostrils.

    • simonbarsinister

       How the hell does Admiral Ackbar get his popeye-huge lobster-spiked forearms through his sleeves in the morning?

  • Ali Riza Saçan

    o.O she’s hot

  • TheBehinder

    It’d be doubly awesome if those buns incorporated headphones.

    • awjt

       Dre phones concealed within, saweeeeeeet rolls!

  • Bradley Robinson

    Looks more like an Abe Vigoda hoodie, which, oddly, makes me want one even more.

    Read it as “sideburns”, which didn’t fit with my memories of Princess Leia. For a moment I was worried that Lucas had changed that too.

    • Antinous / Moderator

      NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

    Only thugs, and, apparently, revolutionaries wear hoodies. Also, wearing a hoodie on certain Death Stars will get you shot, if yer not careful.

  • Culturedropout

    “Sidebuns” sounds like part of a “BBW” that you don’t want to see…

    Don’t wear that in Florida, you’ll be shot.
