That being said, it's easy to get your nerdy significant other something that everyone else already has, specially when your lady's sci-fi obsession of choice is Star Wars. When it comes to giving gifts, original is always better. These earrings are a one-of-a-kind and are just the right size. (Nobody wants to sport a pair of Death Star earrings that could actually be confused with a small moon.) The earrings sell for $48 credits (dollars) and are available now.
