Chris's/Kris's Closet (A ChristinaKristin Day Trip Edition) July 18, 2015

Every once in a while we do a combined closet post. We had a great Saturday together away from Columbus. We thought we would share our Saturday looks on the same post since we had the same story to tell and we both wore items from our recent Rocksbox shipment.

Chris's Look

Kristin and I talked about going winery hopping for a few weeks, and we finally went this weekend. I received a text early Saturday morning saying "Can you be here by 2:45"?, I replied yes, the next text message was "Bring an extra pair of shoes that are flat. We are starting in a peach and apple orchard". I laughed a little to myself knowing how adventurous Kristin is, but I'm always up for whatever so I was excited. When we arrived in Utica, OH at the orchard, it was just like you see on TV, rows lined with peach trees, it was actually quite beautiful and peaceful. We made a couple pit stops along the way, and I was just along for the ride, which I quite enjoyed. I was able to cross off going on a day trip on my summer bucket list. This is what I wore!

Kris's Look

Christina, my guy and I road around Central, Ohio. The goal was to pick some

peaches and check out a few wineries. Well, we didn't get to pick peaches because

Branstool Orchard didn't have a great year with all the rain. We just picked up some ready to go peaches and we were on our way. We were able to make it to two wineries. The first winery stop was Three Oaks Vineyard in Granville, Ohio and we ended the evening at Hidden Lakes Winery in Canal Winchester. In between the wineries we stopped at an Amish food store and picked up spices and tried some Amish fares. We took our photos at Hidden Lakes Winery. I really wanted to use their backyard scenery but a wedding party was using the patio. This was Saturday's look.

Until next time,
Be blessed! Be free! Be fashionable!

Chris's/Kris's Closet (Kristin) May 23, 2015

Kris's Closet

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!

It was an eventful holiday weekend starting with Saturday evening. I went winery hopping with my sister and my guy. We had to eat first so we stopped at our favorite Amish restaurant, Der Dutchman in Plain City. My sister had never been so she had a great time shopping at the onsite bakery and looking through the gift shop before we were seated for dinner. We ate, then we were off to our first winery in Plain City called Eldchrist Winery. That is where I stopped to take these photos. We planned to visit three wineries but were only able to make it through two. The second stop was Blend of Seven Winery in Delaware, Ohio. We had such a great time but after the heavy comfort food and the wine, we were ready for bed. This is what I wore.

My look was simple and comfortable. Wrap dresses are great for any body type and when it's made of tee shirt cotton, it can't get any better. I whole heartily believe in wearing flats when I plan to consume a decent amount of wine. Wineries tend to have a lot of rocky or uneven places and heels and wine don't always mix well.
