Hello!
I'm back from 9 days in France. Today, I am sharing an outfit which was worn by 12th Doctor companion, Bill Potts, played by Pearl Mackie. Pearl's style is not particularly mine but she had a couple of really cool garments that I ended up collecting.
Let's look at the outfit I am sharing today. It was worn by Bill in her very first episode.

She wears a stripy vest top from Urban outfitters along with blue jeans from Topshop with turned up ankles. She wears black and white trainers.
In terms of accessories, she wears a black cord necklace, a blue crystal shard necklace and peace logo earrings. You can also see a red hair bow too.
I last made a version of this outfit back in September 2020.
I've made some different choices today.
I started with the stripy vest top which I wore before. It's a lovely light, woven fabric. I teamed it with my ASOS blue jeans. These are jeans I bought for one of my Clara cosplays but they work for this too. I added a black belt from another dress.
In terms of shoes, I wore these white and black Toms shoes (bought for CBC some years ago but he doesn't like them)
I noticed that CBC's school satchel looked very similar to Bill's one so I added it to the picture.Finally, in terms of jewellery, I forgot about earrings and couldn't find a suitable red hair bow but added my 1990's name necklace turned around along with a quartz crystal necklace I received in a blog swap.
Once I'd taken these photos, I realised that the jeans were just going to be too hot today so I substituted the trousers for some black linen cropped trousers and added a white broderie anglaise button up blouse to protect my arms from the sun when I walked to the charity shop/COOP/Shoe mender (yessss, a new one has opened in town!)
Much more Summer appropriate though this outfit woud work really well on a cooler day.
What do you think of either outfit?
