Academic Outreach Librarian for the Social Sciences, Academic Library, Waltham, Massachusetts (purple dress)
My fiance (who has worked as a library assistant while in school) and I took our engagement photos at the Boston Public Library. While we took our outfits up a notch for these pictures, it’s not much of a stretch from our average work-wear. (I have worn this dress to work many times and get lots of compliments.)
