Chris's/Kris's Closet (Kristin) April 17, 2013

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!

Wednesday I got dolled up to go to dinner with friends. I had dinner at M at Miranova. I had a great meal there as usual, then I hung out with my friends a few hours longer. The weather was great weather for mixing some winter and spring pieces. This is what I wore.
I wanted to pull out some of my floral garments I had not worn in a while with it being one of my favorite trends this season. My dress is 80's vintage. It is a floral peplum mini dress that I found at Rag-O-Rama some time ago. The tag reads Blair of Warren, PA. I love this very loud dress because I have been able to wear it at size 6 and now as a size 10. It remains flattering. I located some cute floral peplum dresses online below.

I decided to wear a turban because I didn't had the time to do my hair since the dinner was a last minute idea. I love that the turban is in style! Convenience! You can find this kind of turban at hair stores for around $3 or lots of other options on etsy.com. Here is one like mine on etsy at:

I located many great studded belts on etsy such as this one at:

The earrings are from a vendor at the Caesar Creek Flea Market!
The long leather evening gloves are from a vintage shop in Hocking Hills. The purse is the Michael Kors East/West Hamilton Satchel. My over-the-knee boots are Guess from several seasons ago. I located some similar gloves and my exact bag online below.
