Unexpected Treat...

 Today I was looking on ebay at tennant tie brands just to see if anything exciting came up. Only minutes before i was thinking about how the 'Next Doctor' tie was so simple, but so hard to find a similar design. Anyway on ebay i looked up Massimo Dutti ties and then Paul Smith Ties (Because pumpkiny owns a similar tie made by Paul Smith) When to my surprise, an almost identical tie came up, i bagged it straight away.

As you can seee, it is a near perfect design. And just to add to the 'Fantastic-ness' of it all, it cost me all together... (Drum roll please!)...

£70.00 including shipping from America!!!

I know it's a little expensive, but considering the price of Tennant ties these days, i was more than happy!!!

If anyone has any opinions, feel free to comment below.

A Laser Spanner in the Works!

The other day I was sorting out some dvd's when i came across my Doctor Who Series 4 box set.

As i'm now mad at checking which tie he is wearing in every episode, i thought why not see which tie he's wearing on the dvd cover. I had already noticed that it was the brown suit, but what's this I thought. To me it looks like the Kenzo burgundy/blue tie only ever worn with the blue suit

Now it's hard to see at this size and if i made i any larger it would be too pixelated to know. So tell me what you think and look at your own dvd box set for a better view.

Gallifrey Sale!

I just noticed on the Magnoli website that a brown Tennant suit is going cheap in the overstock section.

I was considering buying it but i'm more than happy with the Baron Boutique suit i have at the moment, so if anyone is looking for an accurate Tennant brown suit, you don't usually get them this cheap from Magnoli! 

Also, the Tennant blue suit is going for the same price!

Going Tieless

Yes, it's what it says in the title. I bought a couple of T-Shirts that were perfect with my navy shirt. They cost about £2.00 each from Amazon.co.uk. So here they are...

This, as you can see, is a navy blue T-Shirt and a sort of Lilacy-Blue kind of shirt. Sadly, even though it looks stunning, it was only used in one episode; (Midnight)

This is a light graphite T-Shirt with the Lilacy-Blue shirt again. The camera makes the shirt look a tad too light, but in normal daylight, it's a spot on match to the one used in; (End of Time Pt 1)

The Suit, the Ties and the Wardrobe

Hi all, finally got round to taking pictures of my ties with my suit. So here they are...

This is the Magnoli Armani Tie. I think it looks fantastic next to the suit. It has been used with the light blue shirt in the following episodes; (Army of Ghosts, Doomsday, Smith and Jones, The Shakespeare Code, Gridlock, Turn Left, The Stolen Earth, Journeys End)

Again this is the Armani tie but instead with the navy blue shirt. Wearing this just makes me want to say 'It's Volcano day!' This combo was used in; (Love and Monsters, The Family of Blood, Fires of Pompeii, Planet of the Dead)

This is the Christian Lacroix Swirly Tie Replica by Magnoli. I know the knot looks a bit big but it's because you have to tie the tie so short, you end up with this. I still love it though. Used in these episodes; (The Girl in the Fireplace, Love and Monsters, Blink)

This is a replica of the Massimo Dutti Striped Tie. I searched and searched and searched for a look a like but it was impossible to find. So i decided to have a go at making one on ArtsCow.com. It came out perfectly and it was an easy design to copy. I have a spare if anyone would like to buy it. Anyway, it was only used in two episodes, which is a shame because it's one of my favourite ties;.. (Partners in Crime, The Next Doctor) 

Update 27/5/12: I have just bought a more accurate woven version of this tie, awaiting arrival.

And Finally the very well known Tennant Regeneration look. This knot took me ages to work out how to do but I finally got the hang of it. It looks stunning with the light blue shirt, it's a shame they didn't use this much either as they only used it in; (End of Time Pt 2)

The best suit in Gallifrey

Hi guys, this is my first post on my new blog, so i thought i'd start off with the suit i got for Christmas. I bought from the famous Baron Boutique, and i can safely say that when i opened it on Christmas day i was astonished. The bright baby blue stripes hit me straight away and then the deepness of the brown came next...

Here are a couple more close up photos to show how accurate the design is...

Feel free to tell me what you think. 

I think that the pattern is very accurate to say it is printed on.
