Bookishly brilliant

I work in a library and wore this for bookweek. I run around a lot with little kids and found the length was perfect for sitting up for rhyme time and squatting down for craft time. It's such a flattering style for me and I felt like a literary goddess wearing it. I am going to replace my wardrobe with exclusively LD stocked brands because they're just the best quality.
