Unlikely inspiration

When you hear the words Doctor Who your mind doesn't exactly scream stylish or fashionable. Except that lately so much style inspiration has come from there, even if it is a bit indirect.

- Amy Pond (or the actress who plays her, Karen Gillan) and her awesome nail polish choices. I actually have some major nail jealousy over he nice long nails as well. I love her bold polish choices whether on the show or in real life.

- Christopher and his Kind is a BBC movie being filmed now starring the Doctor himself, Matt Smith. The film is about the life of Christopher Isherwood. That in itself is awesome because the world needs more Matt Smith but that isn't what has me excited over the style. It's these set pics and what his co star Imogen Poots is wearing.

- To bring this a little more full circle, Imogen also had a role in Cracks. A great film I recently watched set in 1930's england at an all girl's boarding school. It's stars Eva Green and her wardrobe in the film is TO DIE FOR. It is some of my fall inspiration. How does this relate to Doctor Who? Eva Green is also in a film with Matt Smith called Womb. BAM! It's a small world, right?


Eva Green is fashionable and pretty crazy in Cracks


Okay so I may have stretched it a little far but still, it all started a bowtie wearing, time traveling alien called the Doctor.
