Nov 23rd - Outfit #21 - Green Friday

Greetings on this rainy west coast day! I thoroughly enjoyed my football-watching, beer-drinking and general carousing yesterday (thanks for asking) and hope everyone is in good spirits today.

It being Black Friday (yes, this has trickled up to Canada *sigh*), I'm going shopping, but to a church rummage/vintage sale. Not so much of the rabid consumerism as Black Friday, but since I'm giving back to my community (assuming I buy something), let's make this a green Friday.

And I'm wearing some green! These OTK olive boots (last seen here with a touch of mustard) are great for warmth and in the rain. I like being able to show them off properly, pulled up to their thigh-high goodness with these skinny tux pants (last worn here under a dress).

I also have a bit of green in my sparkly olive cami (not part of the capsule) underneath this wonderful jacket, which I last wore here on my Nerdy Mission.

This jacket is warm enough to function as outerwear, so I'm just adding this vintage silk scarf for a bit of neck coverage. The mink rose helps balance the scarf, don't you think?

For rain coverage and keeping the fingers toasty, I've added a brown velvet cloche (with another pin on that), and my cashmere-lined leather long gloves.

Cat and I are off to the wilds of Oak Bay! I feel like a proper English lady...with a twist. Oak Bay has a reputation for being very snooty - "behind the Tweed Curtain" they say.

Tonight, we are off to an art opening (I may bust out a Wild Card outfit!), and tomorrow night is Winesday, plus another performance by my dear burlesque-ing friend. Woo!
