Time & Relative Dimension In Space (T-Shirt Challenge!) Part 6/9

7/21/2015

Allons-y! *^_^* I'm traveling without moving, today. I often wonder what the distant future will be like. I imagine some things will get better (e.g. self-driving cars FTW!) and other things will inevitably get worse (e.g. availability of natural resources). I think the advances in technology alone would make it worth being cryogenically frozen. *shrug* What? That would be cool. Also, I'm a curious bastard. >:D

Picture

Anyway, this obsessive curiosity about the future (and about life on other planets... :P) made me a huge fan of Dr. Who. A time traveling dapper dude in a police box? It doesn't get any better than that, my friends. So, obviously, I have a shirt bearing the hallowed TARDIS. <3 My partner got it for me as a gift. He has one just like it, too. ^_^ On rare occasions, we end up wearing the same shirt. When that happens, we're too amused to change outfits. It's a lot like when you say something and the person you're with says the exact same thing at the same time. You start to think that some strange, unnatural force is at work and you check yourself for jinx residue. Haha. Whatevs. I'm OK with a little voodoo. ;D~

Picture

Of the actors who have played The Doctor, David Tennant is my favorite. I'd dress like his character everyday, if I could afford it. Haha. So, I tried to embrace his quirky personality by adding a colorful men's bow tie and fun polka dot skirt. The white blouse underneath is vintage. I thrifted it along with a cream colored blouse, last week. I bought them because of their beautiful, patterned collars. I had a tailor remove the long sleeves on both of them, so I could do the kind of layering that I love to do. :3
The bow tie conceals the subtle pattern play, I'm afraid, but you can see a closeup photo here.

Finally, I wore brown tassel loafers and a brown braided satchel for some added vintage flair. I opted for my brown ombre Warby's for a touch of sophistication. Yep. :D So, what do you think the distant future will be like? What kind of technological advancements would you most look forward to?

I'm still holding out for hover boards and jetpacks. Haha. <3

I liked the T-shirt very much, and so cool your partner also has it! I agree with you, David Tennant is my favorite Dr Who too! I liked the shirt underneath and it's always so good to have a good seamstress! I liked the skirt and bag and I think you look very beautiful! I am loving your T-shirt challenge!

Hehe. Yeah. I just like looking at him, really. I've never liked any of The Doctor's "companions," though. There's something off about them. I haven't found one that I actually liked in all the seasons I've watched. o_O

LOVE the dots on dots! So much thought goes into each and every one of your outfits.

As for the distant future, I really like the idea that it's just plain impossible to predict. Renaissance alchemists definitely couldn't predict all the crazy shit we've come up with in 2015; the very fabric of our world is so different from theirs. I'm partial to the explanation that the future will be similarly bizarre.

Hehe. You're right. That uncertainty makes it both scary and exciting. Still, we have some technologies now that will surely carry over and may even become mainstream. It may not be possible to predict what everything will be like, but I bet we can get close with some things, at least. I'm all about the spoilers, you see. ;D

No, actually my first introduction to the franchise was with Eccleston's character. He was pretty bad ass. Maybe it was the leather jacket. Haha. Anyway, I was sold after that. :D

Your outfit would make all versions of the Doctor very happy! It would make Sexy very excited, too! (That's the name the TARDIS gave herself, for any readers reading this and don't know.)

British gentlemen have the best style and your version looks so lovely and playful :D Love it! That bow tie melts my heart!

I watched the first episode of Doctor Who (starring Tennant) and it wasn't really my cup of tea. Maybe because I'm not the biggest scifi fan. But I really love the print in your shirt! It looks like it was made with water colours <3 It's magical!

I seriously need to watch Doctor Who. It sounds like it's right up my alley. It's definitely on my to-watch list though!

Also this outfit is wonderful! I just love the two shades of blue and the addition of that bow tie. So cute!

I've really enjoyed all the Doctors from "New Who" (haven't watched al from the "Original" series), but Tennant is probably my favorite too. I do like the bow-tie, though it seems very much Matt Smith's doctor. Makes you want to say "Bow-Ties are cool."

I work in an elementary school and last year, I noticed one of the students had put up theses poster/drawings with the Doctor and the TARDIS with the slogan "I YOU to be a Time-Lord." Lol, what?

I think maybe it isn't grammatically correct? I don't get it, either. Haha.

I'm a little late to the game, but I just started watching Doctor Who! I figured I'd see what all the fuss was about, and ended up hooked. Then I started looking up the actors, and did you know that David Tennant decided he wanted to be an actor when he was five, because of watching Doctor Who!?!??! For some reason, that blew my mind. Anyways, after all that rambling, I love this outfit! The mix of traditionally masculine pieces like a bow-tie and loafers,with oh so girly dots is just awesome. Kudos!
