Is it really 6 years since I last shared this cosplay? I'm staggered I've not shared it if so!
It was worn by Clara Oswald in her 'final' episodes (actually- she made two more appearances after her death, but in both, wearing this jumper!)
The jumper is an all-in-one from Topshop, her jeans, Topshop probably and her trainers from Ash.
And here is my 2025 iteration:
I wore this for school today (with different shoes!) and realised I had a twin- one of the girls was wearing an identical outfit and her hair is pretty similar to me- not sure why she was wearing it as it's not our school uniform at all! It's actually a really comfortable outfit to wear and quite smart too as well as easy to wear given that the shirt and jumper are all in one.
It's not been the best day for various reasons. But, I got through it.
I am grateful for:
1. Having made a big vat of veg stew out of the mouldering things we had in the house yesterday, it meant we had dinner ready for tonight (plus some garlic bread and new kale) and already put some in soup flasks for tomorrow night too.
2. Got back from Northumberland and realised that, because the Milk and More website wasn't working on Tuesday, hadn't cancelled the milk. It sat out on our doorstep from Tuesday to Saturday night (plus Saturday's milk) and DIDN'T GO OFF!
3. Lovely old colleague came back to help me take the choir to our concert rehearsal today. I love her- she's so fun and positive!
4. My choir got a shout out for confidently singing our harmony part in the No Worries mashup- was super proud of them.
5. I have a warm home.
6. Nice stranger put my chain back on to my derailleur on the train. He got his hands all covered in grease doing it. He was nice to chat to.
Sometimes, you have to just try and make your own sunshine. Even if it's a vague bit of brightness through a fog.

I like the idea of 'making your own sunshine '. Look after yourself...
ReplyDeleteI would say you found some very good things to be thankful for! Your temps must still be cool for that milk to not spoil! It might just be the photo, but your top looks greyer than Clara's. I like the way yours looks better.
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that you still found several things to be grateful for, even if the day was not the best. I hope tomorrow will be a better day for you.
ReplyDeleteI love the outfit. I like the pairing of a shirt with jumper. Sorry to hear that you have some problems, but it's wonderful that you are focusing on the good stuff as well. Sending hugs. xx
ReplyDeleteI love it that, in spite of the fact that it wasn't the best day, you still find so many things to be thankful for. I think I'll have to take a leaf out of your book, Kezzie!
ReplyDeleteLove the jumper and the fact that you had a twin at school, even if she was supposed to be in uniform :-) xxx
Beautiful post
ReplyDeletePlease read my post
ReplyDeleteYes, sometimes we must make our own sunshine.
ReplyDeleteSometimes we need to pay more attention to the sunshine that's there.
It's always good to be grateful.
Cheerful old colleagues are the best!
One of my older colleagues is going through a difficult time and I don't know how to help her.
That stranger who helped you get your chain back on sounds awfully nice. It's wonderful that people are still willing to help, even when they don't know somebody.
This outfit is very cute. No wonder you had an outfit twin.
It's something that works well!
Have a great day!
