Thanks! She tried to find me a fez but figured a bow tie would be easier and that I would appreciate plaid. My mother knows me so well and is also a Whovian so that helps. She said she had to go to 3 different places to find one that felt right. lol
I feel the same way. Although the people whom I have showed a photo of me to, such as @iMeowmix, gave me compliments remarkably :P
