As some of you know, I'm aiming to become a librarian after I graduate (and after I do a Master's in Information and Knowledge Management), so yesterday, I had fun playing this up. I was trying to look stern in the picture, I don't think I did a very good job of it though! I don't wear my glasses very often, but I like them every now and then. And, my gosh, another pencil skirt! I've actually gained a little bit of weight lately and thus have a slightly curvier lower half - and I'm pleased! I was perhaps a little too fond of the waif look and diets in my high school years, so it feels rather good to be happy with my figure now. The shoes didn't come out at all well in the picture - they're not bright white and plain!

Close up of the shoes:

The ever lovely Tim was wearing my all time favourite garment of his yesterday (the jacket), and looked terribly cute, so here he is!

The jacket is tailor made and was for a military uniform of some kind. The buttons are silver (though they don't appear it) and wonderfully shiny. A jacket like that has the potential to look a little bit emo when worn with black skinny jeans, but I think that the maroon pullover, shirt, tie and lack of heavy eye make up ensure it doesn't look like that at all.
