Pink hideousness/loveliness

I got the pink wool yesterday. It's a really strong colour, but I think I will look good in it, or at least not too bad. Now I only have to find a good green fabric to line it with. It's a very thin wool with a herringbone variation pattern and very soft so I need to line it with something as soft. Ideally it would be dark green habotai or other silk lining, but I'm still looking for a source. Thai Silks unfortunately only has light greens. Maybe I'll find something in London (Eeeh! I'm going to London again!!!).

My article is finished now, I only need some feedback from my supervisor and then I can send it in. Since it's Midsummer's eve I'm alone at work, I mean as the only person at the whole department, which is really nice. I have printed out the remaining 149 pages of [livejournal.com profile] sarahbellem's novel so I can read it when I find some spare time. It was so long ago that I read the first 140 pages though, so I will probably have to start with re-reading them. Now I'm going to take even more advantage of being alone at work and copy some more pictures from Hans Weigel's Trachtenbuch.
