Chris's/Kris's Closet (Kristin) July 7, 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. Christina is hot pink because she is usually feminine,fun,sweet and romantic in style. That description reflects in life for her as well. That is why our logo is hot pink and red bubbles with our names ran together but separated in color. My name is Kristin and welcome to my closet. 

Saturday I had lunch at City Barbeque and then antique shopping with my fella. We went to Grove City and Circleville looking for furniture inspiration for him and fashion for me. Then we ended up on my side of town where we took most of these pictures before dinner at Yellow Brick Pizza, the place we met for the first time almost a year ago.
It was 102 degrees on Saturday. I knew whatever I was wearing was not going to be much. I was feeling a little Rock Star. I settled for a black Bullet Boys beater that I got from a rock concert with my fella a week ago. I found a few rock tee options online if you are interested including a bullet boys tank.

I paired the tank with a neon body-con mini skirt that I got from the junior department of Shoppers World on the west side of Columbus for $8. I loved it so much that bought it in a total of three colors. I located a few neon skirt options from some reliable online stores, if interested.



This is my angry rocker face! No, I was really just hot and sticky during the shoot. Here is a close up on the glasses and the chain choker. My cat-eye sunglasses are Michael  Kors (firenze) from Nordstom Rack and the necklace is something I picked up at an antique shop. The headband is from Deals. Gotta love a good ol' dollar store. I have included great options for black cat-eye sunglasses including the pair I have on and chain chokers which includes my version as well.

These shoes are Type Z brand (Desert). They are all sold out but I found some similar with a button toe along with  flats that have toe straps aka toe rings. The white and black studded purse is seven years old from TJ Max, an Italian brand ,Claudia Firenze. I located some great studded purses that will give you a rocker feel.
Sandals:



Studded bag:

The bracelet I got from a fashion swap party with my girlfriends. I don't know where it originated but I did locate one similar and a couple other options.
