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!

Sunday I was in Hocking Hills with my guy and his family. We had a picnic at the park and took two hikes together. Afterward my guy and I checked out an art show that was at the Hocking Hills Lodge and then we hiked a path at Conkle's Hollow State Nature Preserve. Conkle's Hollow was my favorite hike. We did the 1/2 mile Gorge Trail which was so full of texture. It was the most beautiful walk I have ever taken. I took a few style photos on the grounds near Old Man's Cave but most of the photos I captured were of the beauty around me. I will share a few at the end of this post. For now, check out my hiking look. This is what I wore.

Just because you are going hiking, doesn't mean you have to wear athletic gear or give up your personal style. I layered a sweat shirt over a button-up shirt. I wanted to be warm and also bring out the small amount of red in my sweat shirt. I think Levi's are the strongest jeans out there. I was sliding down rock surfaces all day and not a thread was broken. Rocky Boots make lots of great work boots for many special jobs like police officers, firemen and and postmen. They also make some of the best hiking boots. I bought this pair on clearance a couple seasons ago from the Rocky Boot Outlet. For my accessories, I threw on a studded beanie to protect my natural hair from bugs and moisture. I finished the look with a pair of gold Quay sunglasses.

Button Up:Charter Club (old)

Until next time,

Be blessed! Be free! Be fashionable!

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!

Sunday I went to Branstool to pick peaches with Leo. We picked peaches and searched through a wide selection of interesting jams, butters and jellies. I put together my look specifically for our outing. I learned my lesson last summer wearing sandals. My feet were dirty, wet and exposed to insects when we visited last, so I opted for my hiking boots this time to walk through the orchard. I still managed to throw together a look that was bright, cute and that I wouldn't mind getting dirty in. I also got to wear my favorite MAC neon orange lipstick. The color always makes me feel good. I took these photos at the orchard. This is what I wore.

I paired a black lace tunic with a pair of cobalt shorts. The tunic I thrifted a while ago. It was around $2. Find similar shirts here and here. The shorts are Merona from Target. I paid $15 for them. I am excited that cobalt will be a big color for fall again this year. I love it!

The belt is a piece I found at the Cultural Arts Festival. It is a tribal belly dancing belt.I think I paid $20 for it a couple years ago. Find some similar belts here.

My necklace is a very old beaded fringe necklace from Express. Find similar necklaces: option 1, option 2 & option 3  The sunglasses are gold and silver D&G aviators. 

The ring is a black and white marble tile ring. I picked it up from a vendor at the Macy's Festival a while ago. Find a similar ring here. The bracelets are the 'Creature Cuff' by Tasha (Nordstrom), giraffe from Kohls, 'Artemis Cuff' and the 'Kalahari Bangle' from Stella & Dot. My boots are Rocky Boots from the Rocky Boot Outlet. I got them off the clearance rack since they are not something I plan to wear a lot. I got them for under $20. 

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