"Hey There, Whippersnappers!" - Tortimer

After retiring from his mayoral position, Tortimer is finally getting some much-needed rest. He spends his days relaxing on Tortimer island, but he still makes room for fun too -- in the form of hosting competitions for the players to enjoy.


So for this outfit, I wanted to focus on things that would be comfortable to wear outdoors in the summer.






Bicycle (Huffy): Maybe it seems strange, but I decided to include a bike in this look. A beach cruiser would be nice for getting around on some parts of the island, and it is my replacement for Tortimer's cane that he uses to get around with.
Shirt (Bernard Lafond): This is a more feminine take on Tortimer's Hawaiian-style shirt.
Shorts (New Look): These Bermuda shorts will be comfortable to wear outside, especially while riding a bike.
Sandals (Billabong): I made sure that the sandals I included wouldn't fall off or be uncomfortable while bike-riding as well.
Hat (Prada): This straw boater is identical to the one Tortimer wears, and I think it looks really cute with this outfit as a whole!
Glasses: These round glasses are also the same style as Tortimer's.
Earrings (Two in the Sun): Shell earrings can draw attention to the tropical island where Tortimer spends his time. Along the beaches, the player can find and pick up shells, including cowrie shells like the ones used for these earrings.
Watch/Necklace (British Museum Shop): Because Tortimer is the guide who times all the competitions on the island, I liked the idea of there being a pocket watch-style necklace as an accessory.
Bag (PB Teen): I think a backpack is more practical than a shoulder bag or handbag for the outfit, and the nautical stripes also keep with the beach theme.


Thanks so much for reading!


Talk to you all soon!
