Take Me Out 2014

Now, I'm sure I've spoken before about this game show which seems to somehow pull me in every series for the past couple of years and that is probably due to my housemate. Anyway, it's just started up again so I thought I would add a little sartorial appreciation for some of the new Flirty Thirty.

Coryn

Love Coryn's yellow dress here especially the frill around the middle and the tight skirt. A shame that she picked a date on the first show. Best of luck to her though.

Stacey

The Rockabilly style is another one I like and the fashion for sheer blouses is continues to roll on. It hints at the sexiness underneath but the colours and the spotty pattern keep it to a minimum. Very classy.

Sadie

Sadie would be one of my picks of the show. I've always had a thing for small brunettes and again she has a nice sheer blouse but coupled with that necklace and (not in shot) a cool earring. She also found a date on the first show.

Hopefully post some more updates in the coming weeks.

Christmas Clara

As regular readers know, I'm a Doctor Who fan and I adore the style of the Doctor's latest companion Clara. The cute dresses, skirts and collars are really sweet and a very 'now' look. In fact I wonder how she will look in years to come, whether the look is so of its time that it will age badly but then that's fashion. What looks stylish today won't tomorrow...and will probably come back in about 30 years time.

Anyway, here's the two outfits Clara wore in The Time of the Doctor:

The Eleventh Doctor and Clara explore Christmas Town

Love the Tarten skirt and the black cardigan. The cute necklace around the collar is sweet too.

Clara and her turkey. Time Winds now avaliable in Waitrose

Lovely combination of the mustard top and leather skirt especially with the cute Peter Pan collar. 

I'm not sure which one I prefer, probably the top one. Would love to cosplay either one of these. I wonder if I would have to carry a turkey around as an accessory?

Looking Forward to 2014

Happy New Year everyone and thanks to all who have continued reading my blog this year.

One of my regrets over this year is that I haven't kept up with this blog as much as I would have liked to. Of course a blog is written to reflect what is going on and what is influencing a person at that moment whereas I would have something to write about and just put it on the backburner for later. 'Later' sometimes never comes, the moment just passes and it doesn't seem like news anymore. For example, last year I was briefly interested in mother/son role switches but I now can't recall the title of the story that got me into it.

As far as crossdressing goes, I crossplayed as Amy Pond again and did a vampire cheerleader as well. I've continued wearing skirts and tights around the house at times and I wish I had more clothes and  a wider selection. I doubt I will ever get much beyond this perhaps due to a combination of the times and my own fears and in a way I'm fine with that.

Of course the biggest thing to happen to me this year is that I now have a girlfriend.

So, let's see what this 2014 brings.
