"However I have had certain producers (not naming any names) comment
on my
"librarian-style" glasses and cardigans..... time for a wardrobe
change
perhaps?"
Anyone visiting 'high street' fashion stores or reading trendy fashion
magazine (not that I do this a lot - I promise) will find that cardigans are
making a bit of a come back.
Alternatively they and 'librarian-style" glasses can be worn in an
fashionable ironic way a la Morrissey.
Maybe we are not as unfashionable as we think
