It looks much warmer than the one I had, which was store bought, red, and suspiciously chiny. (Oh, childhood.) Looks pretty good, though. Kiffie = low-ranking science person pre-Dominion War?
Kiffie = ensign science officer, about mid-season of TNG. :D
I wanted to be a petty officer (one rank below ensign), but I couldn't get the "hollow pip" to look right. Oh well.
I wish I'd gotten one when I was little! And command colours, at that! Sadly, kiffies don't look good in red. But yes. This is quite warm. The pants, which blessedly you cannot see, are quite cold, however. I never seem to learn my lesson about tight clothes and cold climates.
I am a redhead. The red looked not-great on me, but the gold would have been terrible. They had no blue. D: If they had, I could have added a labcoat and been Dr. Crusher! :D
Even if I hadn't been hitting the cookies too ahrd to pull off the dancing doctor, my hair is now way too long. *waggles head, gets swishing past her butt* I'm not willing to cut it for a costume, not even to cut in bangs.
