Nov 19th - Outfit #18 - Powerless and Patterned

A lot of pattern today - and I'm mixing black and brown!

My white and black cardigan worn (mostly) open and my black Tsubos (both worn together last here, with a touch of teal), and my Indiana Jones skirt (last worn here with a bunch of browns).
Underneath the cardi is my chain-print faux wrap top last worn way back here on day 1, with my tan suede skirt.

Rounded it out with my striped tights and a few small bits of silver jewelry. The pattern was enough today. It was a Monday.

Sweater (Attitude, thrifted), top (Talbot's, consignment), skirt (no label, thrifted), shoes (Tsubos).

Just after I put yesterday's post up, the rain and wind combined and...power outtage! We don't get them here very often, but every so often the wet west coast weather conspires to remind us that Nature is in charge, not us.

Unfortunately, our neighbour got trapped in the elevator - call the Fire Department!
There's a fire hall close to us so they were there really fast! This truck was the only light for blocks!

The emergency lighting came on in the hallway.
Spooky! The firemen pried the doors open and got our neighbour out. And that is why I take the stairs!

I dug out the candles and stuck them in my old candelabras.
I read by candlelight and L napped. Vizzini was mostly freaked out, then calmed down. He steered clear of the candles. The power was out for a couple of hours - it was mostly just inconvenient.
