Kris's Closet
Inspired by some great bloggers, my partner and I decided to start our own blog. In this blog post you will get a glimpse of pieces in my closet,learn where I found them
and where I wore them.
My name is Kristin. Welcome to my closet!
Happy New Year!
New Years Eve I went to the Hollywood Casino in Columbus, Ohio for their 80's party. I ate at the buffet and then the fella and I left to go to another 80's party at Skully's in the Short North. It was kind of an uneventful night but I feel blessed and happy to be here yet another year. I took these photos at the casino. This is the outfit I was wearing when I brought in the New Year.
I had a hard time at first finding something to wear because I gained quite a bit of weight in 2012. I did not go buy a new outfit so I had to piece together some things I already had. I went with a ladylike menswear look. I wore a button up that I bought a week ago from the Ohio Thrift Store for maybe a dollar. I threw on a pair of dark denim skinny jeans by Paige. They were purchased at Nordstrom.
The silver and black sequin jacket I got from Shoetique at 3760 E. Broad Street in Columbus, Ohio. I located similar jackets at:

The vest I have had for over a year. I bought it during a black phase. It also is a thrift store buy.
This is why I was attracted to the vest. It laces up in the back!
Since my jacket and other accessories were kind of busy, I kept my earrings simple. I just wore a pair of diamonds. They are heirlooms from my grandma. My hair is adorned with a white rhinestone barrette, I got at a flea market this past summer for a quarter.
The bowtie is a DIY project. I made it New Years Eve. I call it a collar brooch. Christina and I sell them at Shoetique. Look for them also in our online shop. Here is one I just posted today

This bag has already been on closet posts a lot lately. It was an early Christmas present from my mom. It is the Michael Kors Hamilton East/West Satchel. I love that the lock is real and can be removed with the key that is also attached and removable. Find it online at
