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 Christina and I had a styling job with an adorable little girl. We had a great time putting together looks for the little doll for her portfolio. After the work was done we met some friends and grabbed some take-out from Ocean Club. I took these photos at my friend's home. This is what I wore.

  I wanted to be comfortable for work and I knew I would be outside some so I made sure to wear jeans and layer up. The floral jeans I am wearing, I have worn on a post once before. I got them at Nordstrom. They are on sale here

The button up is also from Nordstrom. I layered it with a shawl cardigan. The cardigan is old and I don't remember where I got it.

The headband is the knit turban headband/earwarmer I bought in Amish Country the weekend before last at the Style Adventures feature Queen Anne's Lace. Here is a similar one I found online:

The brooch was added to blouse top for decoration. I forget where I bought it.

I like wearing leather gloves with outfits sometimes. This pair I found at a vintage shop. Older gloves are smaller than those that are made today. My hands are very childlike so even small adult gloves are usually too big. So if this is a problem for you as well, go vintage and you can find a better fit. The bracelets I have collected from high school dances and styling projects.

My boots are closet regulars. They are by Chinese Laundry. Here are some similar ones:http://www.chineselaundry.com/chineselaundry/boots/tremendous-leathe?color=cognac

This concludes another Kris's Closet. Thank you so much for stopping by!

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, we had a jewelry event at Danes Dessert Cafe in Short North, Columbus, Ohio. Christina and I premiered our new Heavy Metal Collection. We were both suppose to wear jewelry from one of the two current collections, so I based my outfit around pieces from our Vegas and Heavy Metal collections. I took my pictures at the event. This is what I wore.

Since the event was a holiday event, I decided to try to wear something that read holiday. I also had to be comfortable. The event was from 6 pm until midnight and I was going to be on my feet. So flats were a must.

My Hello Kitty tee reads Naughty or Nice? I got it many years ago from Forever 21. My black blazer is Gibson from Nordstrom. It is an equestrian style and can be found on Nordstrom's site at :

My floral denim is the Diana Skinny Jean by KUT from the Kloth at Nordstrom. Find them online at:

My  boots are the UGG Australia 'Bailey Sparkle' Over the Knee Boot. I bought them last year. They are mostly sold out. I have seen some on ebay and it appears there are still select sizes online at Nordstrom.

My earrings are from our Vegas collection. Click on the link below to go directly to them or you can find them by visiting our shop from the homepage of our blog. They are the Vegas Sparkle Pompom earrings in red. http://www.etsy.com/listing/117339220/vegas-sparkle-pompom-earrings-vegas

I am wearing a combination of bracelets. Two of them are Vegas beaded stretch bracelets and there are bolt cuff bracelets in between, on top and bottom of the Vegas bracelets. This is not the best picture. The sequin clutch is from MJR.

This concludes another Kris's Closet. Thank you so much for stopping by!
