TARDIS Tuesday- Bill Potts from Pyramid at the end of the world

Hi there,

I somehow missed TARDIS Tuesday yesterday.  I didn't get home late but I somehow didn't get around to writing the post. So it is a tardy TARDIS Tuesday.

This week, I thought I would give Bill Potts, the 12th Doctor's last companion another go.  I have used Bill three times for TARDIS Tuesday now and here's another one.

Bill's style is very different from mine. It is very sporty, contemporary, casual and boyish but with little feminine touches.  The outfit she wore in The Pyramid at the end of the World is no exception.  This was a clever episode which was part of a trilogy of episodes.



I did struggle to find a full-length image of Bill in this outfit so we will just go with a top-half image.

She wears this Topshop reversible jacket (which she actually wears in a few episodes but mostly with the OTHER side of the jacket together with a black ribbed turtle neck top and a nice starry lariat necklace.  I'm pretty sure she is wearing black jeans.

Image borrowed from WornonTv.net

And since the image was quite an easy one to recreate, I decided to do just that!

Me not smiling is NOT a good photo look! 
I did manage to find the exact same jacket of Bill's.  I remember when they first showed the trailers for this series, Bill is wearing this exact jacket and so many a cosplayer went out and paid full price for it from Topshop or from secondhand sellers who knew what they had.   I had no intention of buying it since it isn't really my style BUT, I have this curious attraction to reversible garments.  I don't know what it is but I really, really like them and I remember buying a dress full price from Whitestuff because it was reversible.  When I discovered the jacket was reversible, it attracted me and actually, since I've had it, despite it being totally not my style, I really like it.  I bided my time and ended up buying it second-hand for £7.  CBC cannot understand it and is incredibly rude about this jacket whenever I wear it saying I am only wearing it because it was in Doctor Who and it is disgusting!
Aside from a cup of tea, I added an old Primark black polo-neck and black trousers. Annoyingly, I have a really pretty lariat necklace I bought when I was 19 but I could not seem to find it when I was wearing this on Sunday so I wore this butterfly lariat necklace a work colleague gave to me when I left the Royal Academy of Music 14 years ago.  I will never forget this lovely present as she customised a Dairylea cheese box, covering it in an old Academy prospectus and stapling a 3d butterfly to the lid- it was such a sweet present
I thought I'd share the back view of the jacket too- it is embroidered with a Tiger!  At my old church, we are having a cabaret evening on Saturday and aside from my flute trio playing, I am joining in with a Grease medley so I shall wear this jacket for my Pink lady role!
