don't judge a book by its cover.

A fashion blogger realizes that the only hot librarians are, well..hot librarians. (And, shocker! It has nothing to do with fashion!)

After all, the sexiest accessories of all have always been a keen mind, a sparkling wit and a lust for knowledge.

Can we branch out from hot librarians to adventurous librarians???

How about hot AND adventurous librarians?

I totally agree. Its not about the librarians themselves that have been overplayed, but the fashion that is being appropriated by those feigning intelligence. Or probably those that just wish to be trendy and indie, giving those who assume the outward "intelligent" look to be an indication of their inward intelligence, or desire for such, a false impression and thus an aggravation for seeking deep waters only to get a puddle's worth. He's sick of being Pavlov's dog, seeing the clothes and quickly associating intelligence with it, only to be teased by finding no substance. I agree. But we know that humans are judgers of the physical....so is there a way to morph the intelligent look? Or, like superheros, walk in our common disguises until the occasion arises for us to shine.

Go figure.
I had the hots for my local librarian when I was younger. I can't mention where I wanted to bring her and what I wanted to do with her.
Now that I am older, I just buy the books I want.
My wifes aunt works at the library. Eww.

Amen to that. Your pretty smile doesn't hurt either.

Frankly, I'd never seen a hot librarian in my life. I was always sure they existed. Finding your blog confirmed my suspicions.

I could not agree more. Intelligence is sexier than any clothing.

So what's the hipster librarian look, anyway?

I dunno...I've only ever dated one librarian, and it was a mistake...not for librarianship reasons. In general, smart women are sexy. However (gasp) librarians are not necessarily smart
