Chris's/Kris's Closet ( Kristin) July 15, 2012

Kris's Closet

Inspired by great bloggers like Folake of Style Pantry and Tamia of The Style Sample, we decided to open up our closets to the world as well. We are ChristinaKristin of Columbus,Ohio. We are two women close in age, with two different takes on style and completely different personalities. The best way to describe us if personalities were colors would be red and hot pink. I am the red personality because I am usually wild, passionate and bold with fashion and in life. My name is Kristin. Welcome to my closet!

Sunday I went to Utica to pick peaches with the fella but a storm came and dashed our dreams. Instead we went into the Legend Hills Orchard's market and got some that were already picked and ready to go along with some other goodies. Afterward we stopped at a few Goodwill thrift stores in Utica and Johnstown as well as an antique shop where some of these pictures were taken. We had a late lunch at 62 BBQ and ended our day at a cookout at my friend's home. This is what I wore.

The strapless denim jumper is from American Apparel. You can find the jumpsuit @ http://store.americanapparel.net/rsacm301.html It comes in two color options. The 80's vintage neon belt I found on etsy. I located some similar belts on etsy @ http://www.etsy.com/listing/96078284/vintage-braided-rope-belt-frog-buckle?ref=sr_gallery_23&ga_search_query=neon+belt&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=ZZ&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_page=4&ga_search_type=all  and

The glasses are D&G, the same ones I wore in my closet blog from the day before on 7/14. The neon knit and beaded earrings are from ChristinaKristin Cotton Candy Collection. You can find them @ http://www.etsy.com/listing/103173180/rainbow-neon-beaded-hoops-with-knitted The neon lime green scarf is a long $5 piece from Shoetique, 3760 East Broad St. Columbus, Ohio. I found  similar scarves @ http://www.solidcolorneckties.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=NI00SI-0011&utm_source=google&utm_medium=shopping&gdftrk=gdfV25102_a_7c1455_a_7c6599_a_7c4395&gclid=CIak5qznnrECFYao4Aodyw3ofA and

These shoes are being revisited. I wore them last Sunday as shown in my closet blog about last Sunday's outft. They are Naturalizers and super comfortable. I gave similar shoe options in 7/8 blog. My new furry friend from Timber Tunes, the antique shop in Johnstown also makes an appearance to the right.

My bag is Louis Vuitton. It is the original Monogram Multicolore Canvas Alma before they updated it by removing the front pocket and before it was marked up $1000 more. It  was my graduation gift from my father when I graduated in 2005 from The Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. He passed away before I graduated and this was how I treated myself for a job well done with a portion of the money left to me. You can find the updated version of this bag @ http://www.louisvuitton.com/front/#/eng_US/Collections/Women/Handbags. It is one of my favorite bags and has sentimental value, I have been carrying it a lot recently so the leather on it is finally stained with oils from my hands. The neon pink lego resin ring I'm wearing was ordered from a jewelry designer on etsy. It comes in several color options. You can find it @ http://www.etsy.com/shop/BadAttitudeJewelryCo or search lego rings on http://www.etsy.com/ The neon knit bangle is also on etsy @ http://www.etsy.com/listing/96825894/knit-covered-wooden-bangle-cotton-candy It comes in a few color combinations. It is another ChristinaKristin Cotton Candy Collection piece.

That concludes another Kris's Closet. Thank you for stopping by.

Be blessed! Be free! Be fashionable!

Kris,
