Chris's/Kris's Closet (Kristin) May 4, 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!

Saturday I organized and attended a party for my girlfriend's belated birthday. We had Jamaican food, rum punch and reggae music. Afterward I took some out of town guests out to the Arena District and we bar hopped. I took these photos in the backyard of the house where we had the party. This is what I wore.

I love the warm weather months and my warm weather accessories and clothing. Right on trend with stripes, this dress I have had for many years now. The striped strapless dress is by Liquid. I bought it at the Barney's Outlet store in some suburb of New York. Check out the similar dresses below.

My yellow linen jacket is a thrift store purchase I bought last spring. I found a similar blazer at:  http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009Q257JW/ref=asc_df_B009Q257JW2501565?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&linkCode=asn&creative=395093&creativeASIN=B009Q257JW&tag The wicker body chain was my favorite accessory piece last year and I still love it so much. It is by Candice Cox of New York at CandidArtAccessories. Find this necklace at: http://www.etsy.com/listing/86728627/wicker-chain?ref=shop_home_active

The faux wood grain heart ring is from a vendor I ran into at the Macy's Music Festival. The bangle bracelets are from Shoetique in Columbus and the Valley Thrift Store in Dayton. My leopard clutch is from the Buffalo Exchange in Chicago. It is a calf hair bag by Ann Taylor. Find a similar bag at: http://www.brooksbrothers.com/Leopard-Haircalf-Clutch/WH00106,default,pd.html?cmp=AFC_CJ_

These shoes I bought from DSW last year. They were searched a lot through google which brought a lot of new people to our blog. They are the Levity Echo Bootie. These are no longer available but I found a similar pair at: http://www.yoox.com/us/44479350WK/item?dept=women&tp=11227&utm_campaign=affiliazione_us&utm_content=10&utm_medium=affiliazione&utm_source=linkshare_us#cod10=44479350WK&sizeId=

Chris's/Kris's Closet (Kristin) September 29, 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. My style is usually wild, bold, adventurous and colorful. I would use the same words to describe my personality and life. My name is Kristin. Welcome to my closet!

Saturday I watched half of the Ohio State game with my dad and watched the other half at The Day Party at Long Street Live with Christina. Afterward I tried to enjoy the party. I am starting to feel like I am too old to be at some of these events. Anyhow, we left the party and Chris and I had dinner at Hyde Park. We ended our night at the Sushi Rock Anniversary Party. I took these photos in front of Hyde Park. This is what I wore.

I wore a black button-up with puffy sleeves. I got it from the Ohio Thrift Store but it is originally from Limited. Black button-ups should be easy to find right now.

My skirt is an ethnic/tribal printed high-low skirt that I bought during a Style Adventures blog in August at Roses Department Store for $7.50. Here is the link to that Style Adventures, if you are interested in that store. http://christinakristinco.blogspot.com/2012/08/style-adventures-vol-4-chesterville.html Here are two very cute ethnic print high-low skirts that I found online. option 1 http://www.mrp.co.za/browse/productDetailColorSizePicker.jsp?productId=11506_00064&categoryId=cat20001&navType=General &
 option 2:http://www.mrp.co.za/browse/productDetailColorSizePicker.jsp?productId=11970_00072&categoryId=cat20001&navType=General

My collarless denim jacket I got a couple weeks ago at The Ohio Thrift Store for $9.99. It is denim jacket weather now so they are in all the stores. Right now I am loving this acid wash denim jacket from ModCloth at http://www.modcloth.com/shop/jackets/totally-boss-jacket

The wicker body chain is a closet blog regular. It was my favorite accessory this past summer. I was asked about it a lot Saturday, so I am going to post the link again. Find this body chain at http://www.candidartaccessories.com/

My purse is the original Papillon by Louis Vuitton.  The rings are from a vendor at The Macy's Music Festival, a couple years ago. The bangles from top to bottom, thrift store, Shoetique, grandma, Shoetique and International Festival. Shoetique has great acessories. Visit the store at 3760 East Broad Street  Columbus, OH 43213. I found some animal print bangles online at http://www.ardenb.com/catalog/product.jsp?categoryId=1440&subCategoryId=1443&productId=58850&utm_source=gan&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=k108283

My strappy bootie sandals are from DSW. They are the Levity Echo Booties. Find them at http://www.dsw.com/dsw_shoes/search/?q=Levity+for+Women&segment=FEMALE
