Hi there!
It's time for another Summery TARDIS Tuesday! I was planning to wear this outfit worn by Clara Oswald in Doctor Who, The Ultimate Guide. I last wore it here for TARDIS Tuesday in September 2020

The outfit is a beautiful oil-slick rainbowy dress from Yumi. She wears it with a pair of black/white/yellow, colour block, T bar sandals from Dune, a pair of winged sunglasses and a straw hat.
It's a great summery outfit in many ways!
Here's my version:
I wore CBC's charity shopped genuine Panama for the photo (I bought it for him!) and a pair of sunglasses I bought in Greece. I wore both of these last time I wore this outfit. Finally, I added my Clarks T-bar leather shoes. These are my standard concert shoes now- they were charity-shopped and are super comfy!
This is a great sunny day outfit BUT for the material it is made out of. Whilst it is breathable, it is synthetic so not convinced I would want to wear this out on a scorching sunny day though for an evening out, it would work!
However, as I was wearing the dress, admiring its lovely rainbowyness, I suddenly wondered if it would work as an alternative top for Peri's Two Doctors outfit, an outfit I interpreted around a month ago or so.
I knew it wouldn't take too much effort to locate the shorts and headband which were lying on my spare room floor and the shoes which are my garage shoes so I quickly tried to see if I could turn the dress into a top. Ta daaaaaaa!
All I did was roll the dress up and tuck it under the waistband and I undid the zip on the dress a bit. Admittedly it looks a bit chunky but I think some other Claras could try and do a Peri outfit using this dress too!
What do you think? Does it work better than my previous interpretation of the top?
So here they are, side by side:

Darker top, definitely!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! You had me at "rainbow." I admire your ingenuity in presenting the dress in different ways. You have a creative mind. :)
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of the beautiful plumage on a starling.
ReplyDeleteI love the "oil-slick" dress! I'm not sure how I feel about it rolled up for a top, though.
ReplyDeleteLoving the oil-slick dress as a dress but, although the intention is good, I think it's a bit bulky rolled up as a top. It does look great with the colour of the shorts, though! xxx
ReplyDeleteI love that cute dress - it looks great on you, Kezzie. I like it as a top too - maybe you should keep an eye out for another one, and just chop it in half to make a top? I think I prefer the rainbow top with the shorts, but the tops both work well.
ReplyDeleteThat's clever, rolling up that pretty dress to make a top! I like Sheila's idea of tracking down another one and cutting it off, best of both worlds! xxx
