locker_monsterI didn't have much time to make a Halloween costume this year, due to the fact that I was out of town for two weeks, so I went with something quick and simple:
It's amazing how simple Eleven's outfit is. It's not a matching suit like Ten's, so it's easy to find most of the elements.
Tweed blazer: H&M. It's a borrowed jacket, so it's a bit big on me, but most blazers don't fit me anyway. Also, the blazer needs deeper pockets or pockets bigger on the inside. The sonic screwdriver didn't fit.
Dress shirt: Gap. Old shirt I had from high school.
Jeans: Old Navy.
Bow tie: Amazon.com. I loved reading the reviews for the bow tie. Majority of them were Doctor Who related. :-)
Suspenders: Amazon.com. No longer available in burgundy, sadly. These things seem to sell like hot cakes.
Fez: Homemade (by my mom).
Sonic Screwdriver: Local comic book store.
No boots as I'm Canadian and we don't wear shoes in the house. ;-)
The party host is a Doctor Who fan so she had some Doctor Who merchandise sitting around the house. Best discovery of the night? The TARDIS cookie jar. Full of Jammie Dodgers. Naturally I had to take a picture with it.
Someone shrunk the TARDIS!
It's nice when people actually recognize your costume. Makes all the effort worthwhile.
