Greetings folks!
I thought that with the sunny weather, I wouldn't get to wear this particular TARDIS Tuesday for some months but since it became utterly freezing, it seems that this is appropriate!
This outfit, worn by Clara in Doctor Who in an episode entitled The Woman Who Lived, is one of those outfits we only saw briefly in the episode and it is a shame because it is one I really like!
I love the Choir boy look of the & Other stories shirt worn under a black jumper. It reminds me of a really nice Choir boy-style shirt that Sophie wore in some outfit posts a long while ago! I'd always fancied a blouse like that!

I couldn't find any pictures of the outfit in its full length worn on line but I found my picture of the outfit from the Doctor Who exhibition last year.
Interestingly enough, they put the blouse backwards on the mannequin at the exhibition and failed to tuck the blouse in!
Here's my version of it! I was lucky enough to find the same blouse as hers (it is, like the skirt, from &Other stories) very reasonably thanks to another Clara Oswald fan, Katie, sending me a link of someone selling it. It has lovely fluted sleeves and will be a really nice summer blouse.The jumper is actually navy blue, not black like hers, and it is one I've worn for another Clara outfit. The skirt is remarkably similar but is from Topshop. I bided my time with this skirt, seeking to find one that was super cheap
The necklace was the hardest to find. I have searched for a few years on eBay, Etsy and Depop for this necklace (which was never identified) searching, "Aztec bird" and such things. Many other people found turquoise stone silver ones on Etsy which they then painted with black nail varnish. I saw one or two of the silver versions with turquoise stones and ridiculously overly fancy chains but a) they needed a lot of altering, were already £22+ as well as about £12 postage from the States- it wasn't happening.
I was lucky enough to find this one randomly one day on eBay in the right antique bronze finish and black stones and it came from Newlook originally. I paid £7.99 for this one. I wonder if it is the real one she wore?
I really like this outfit as it is smart yet very comfortable, even if the skirt is a tad on the short side.
What do you think?
Would you wear this outfit? Do you like the Choir boy look?
