Marvel by Her Universe

Written by Shae

Alright, wow has it been busy. Between DCC coming and going and work, and other problems, I’m not even sure what day it is! Well, with some recent life things happening, I figured now was a perfect time to take my mind off of that by getting back to what I promised you guys some blogs ago. Do you remember that? I hope you do. So, a bit ago, Mattie and I were in Hot Topic and discovered some pretty amazing things. Her Universe and Hot Topic collaborated and put out a line of Marvel Avengers wear for us girls. While they didn’t have all the items in stock at the time, they had two key items that we eventually bought. 

What caught Mattie’s eye at first was in the pamphlet they had near the area they were selling these items. It was a Captain America dress and Mattie had to have it…until she spotted the Black Widow jacket. Once she found the jacket and tried it on, the deal was done.  They did have the Loki dress at the time, however, their stock was limited. Apart from one dress and two jackets, it was hard to decide on what to do. But, you know, we are girls, and Hot Topic is a fun place to shop…eventually Mattie talked me into getting the Tony Stark jacket and no regrets. In fact, I wore this thing almost the entire time I was at DCC.

I later decided to search tirelessly for this line. Marvel apparel isn’t uncommon. It’s just not very well advertised. Let’s face it, we can all go find Marvel shirts, especially around the time of new movie releases and what not. But finding a fashion line purposefully done like this? Now, that’s unheard of. So, I turned to the web. At first venture, I hit Hot Topic. Now, this line is limited and not available in all stores. Mattie and I were lucky to find it when we did, because they also sell out super-fast. According to one of the managers at our local Hot Topic, it’s a desired item in high demand. It’s almost always sold out online, which might explain why I had trouble finding it on their site.

A quick venture over to Her Universe proved just as tricky. So where can you find these wonderful dresses and jackets? If you’re lucky a Hot Topic near you has them, or is getting them in soon. Otherwise, you can find the items on their site, whether they’re still pre-ordering or not is a gamble. I know this collection was supposed to be released mid-May to select stores, but I’m not sure if there’s been a delay. I tried finding this collection on Her Universe’s website and came up empty handed, but I did find a lot of other great items. Let’s face it, when it comes to jackets and nerdy shirts…I need all of the things. I can personally attest to how brilliant this clothing line is, because the Stark Industries jacket is seriously comfortable, adorable, and quite unique. The designs on all their clothing items are pretty, and above all, well made. I’m really pleased to see such high quality put into these items.

If you can’t find them! Fret not! I’m on the hunt to find out as much information about them as I can. Not to mention, I want more. Why? Because everyone wants to embody their favorite superhero…what better way to do it than wearing something that looks dashing and shows off our fan side?
