TARDIS Tuesday- The Eaters of Light

I actually wore this for TARDIS Tuesday last week AND didn't photograph it. And the whole outfit could be worn again so I wore it this week.

I wore it for TARDIS Tuesday at SOME point in the last 5 years but can't, for the life of me, find the post! How vexing!

It is one of Peter Capaldi's 12th Doctor outfits from his final season and featured in a historical meets aliens called The Eaters of Light.

It's not particularly exciting but a great outfit for Winter!

Capaldi wears a black paint-splattered sweater from Zara plus a navy hoodie, velvet coat, black chinos and black boots.

Here's my under-layer. Featuring the Screen accurate Zara sweater which is 2 sizes too large for me but is super comfortable.

I teamed it with my black Seasalt trousers and Clarks boots.

I decided to forego the black jacket and navy hoodie and combined these into my navy corduroy G Star coat.

As I've mentioned, it's not a super 'costumey' outfit, but one that was perfect for COLD days!

Hope you have had a good day.

TARDIS Tuesday- Clara Oswald in The Caretaker

Hi there,

I missed TARDIS Tuesday for the last couple of weeks due to lack of organisation and no obvious ideas about what to wear but I'm back this week with an old favourite updated and upgraded.  I last dressed up as this iteration of Clara in July 2018 here and originally back in around 2014-17 sometime...can't find the post.

Let's have a look at it:

Clara wears a very Topshop-heavy outfit here for her day at school during The Caretaker, series 8.

She wears a cream diamond-print shirt with black scalloped shorts and a green mac with Checked lining.  In addition, she wears a split triangle necklace in silver and gold and then wears black wing-tipped heels from Dune and a black satchel from Urban Outfitters.

And here's the 2021 iteration of it:

Pretty sure I could have found a similar background in my school but alas, I was wearing this on a Saturday!

It's been upgraded in 4 ways since last time.

 but what is the same?

Well, the blouse!  It was my first Screen accurate Clara Oswald item and it will always been a bit special for me.

And everything else has been upgraded.

Let's start with the shorts.  I had the screen-accurate ones but they were Very Tight.  Luckily, I managed to sell them and found a size larger, a 12, so they are a *little* bit more decent and feel more comfy.

I added my Screen Accurate Dune brogues which I bought a couple of years ago but didn't have last time I wore this outfit.  They're quite a rare item so this is satisfying!

The final item visible in this outfit is the satchel. I have the same satchel but in brown and again, I count myself as lucky as managing to have bought this at a reasonable price- I saw someone flogging it at £60!

In this picture, you can see the final new addition which is the necklace.  It is pretty similar to the screen version but mine is split into 3 pieces rather than 2 and cost me £2 from eBay.

As is often fun to do, I tried to recreate a few poses including the watering can one where Clara is spying on the Doctor talking to her boyfriend Danny.

I think I actually might have a screen accurate plant as they look quite similar  but sadly, this is not berry season so most of them had fallen off. Watering can is also a different colour, ha!

Hope you are well!
