Apologies For the Glaring Whiteness of My Skin

The sun was really bright and I am really white, so my face is like snow on a sunny day. In other, much more awesome news, I got my first copy of John Green's The Fault in Our Stars! It is signed and gorgeous and I cannot wait to read it, so it got a special guest appearance in today's post. I actually have two more copies coming (the audio box set where John's reading the book and the copy I had to get to see Hank and him on their Tour de Nerdfighting), but none of them arrived...until today.

Anyway, onto the outfit. I was messing around with shorts and skirts to wear, and I slipped this skirt on. It's too big (I got it at a clothing swap, and I have a bad habit of getting things to alter or sell at those), but when I pulled it up to match the shirt's empire waist I found that they actually made quite a pretty dress - so I think I'll have to bust the sewing machine out later. I know you can't see the dress (or my tights) well, and I apologize - the light was weird today.
