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!

Friday was date night with Leo. We had dinner at Park Creek Kitchen in Upper Arlington then we went to see The Great Gatsby. It was opening night so it was crowded but I enjoyed the movie. The wardrobe was incredible! I took these photos outside of the theater. This is what I wore.

My shirt and blazer are both second hand. The butterfly button-up is from Mad 4 Mod. I bought it for a dollar. Find a similar butterfly shirt here. The blazer is a vintage piece that a friend bought me from etsy. I believe it was under $20. Find similar jackets here and here. My skinnies are by Paige.

My butterfly earrings I got from a suburb of Chicago at a thrift store for $0.75. Find some similar butterfly earrings here. I got the necklace from a flea market in Kentucky for $15. 

My patent leather purple handbag is by Charles David. My mom bought it for me from Nordstrom one year for my birthday. The pearl bangle bracelet is from the Valley Thrift Store in Dayton. It was $1.99

The blue suede shoes with wicker heels , I wore last week in a closet post. They are by Costume National. I could not locate anything similar online.

This concludes another Kris's Closet. What do you think about this look?

Chris's/Kris's Closet (Kristin) September 30, 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!

Sunday I spent the day riding around the city and subs of Columbus with the fella. We checked out Baker's Village Garden Center, stopped at a park in Dublin to admire the Chief Leather Lips Monument. We checked out some stores in the Short North then we went back to Dublin and had dinner at Mezzo. I also stopped to check out another piece of art, The Field of Corn in Dublin. I took these pictures at Mezzo. This is what I wore.

I am wearing a lace tunic style top, from the thrift store over a neon pink Target 3/4 length sleeve tee. I belted the lace tee to give it a peplum effect.

I am wearing skinny jeans from Target.

These necklaces both premiered on The Fashion Hot Spot as Style Adventure buys.  The cross I bought last month in Athens at Random House and the choker is from Broadway Antiques Mall in Lebanon. I found some great crosses on etsy like this one at http://www.etsy.com/listing/105330982/soa-fierce-mother-large-cross-necklace?ref=sr_gallery_1&sref=sr_137f0befac32c71f4051f6ad0280b820673ae7d4634924b0c0e61c07c395996c_1349314608_14093829_cross_necklace&ga_includes%5B0%5D=tags&ga_search_query=large+cross+necklace&ga_page=9&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery

I also found a similar silver bead choker on etsy at http://www.etsy.com/listing/110635691/vintage-beaded-necklace-choker-necklace?ref=sr_gallery_27&ga_search_query=silver+bead+choker&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=ZZ&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_page=3&ga_search_type=all

My sunglasses are vintage Liz Claiborne.  Here are some glasses that are similar in shape at http://www.zappos.com/raen-optics-pogue-12-cider-tortoise-japanese-gold

I got my belt from the Ohio Thrift Store a while ago. Here is a similar belt I found online.

My purse I have had for many years, before Gaga. LOL! It is 70's vintage. It is the very first mobile phone. Yes, it works once plugged into a phone jack. I found an ivory one online.

My studded suede flats are Fergie shoes. They are so comfortable. They are not this season but they are very much in style. Yay! Here is a similar pair I found online, they are cuter than mine. http://www.victoriassecret.com/shoes/view-all/studded-ballet-flat-colin-stuart?ProductID=70973&CatalogueType=OLS&cm_mmc=CA-_-Shopzilla-_-PRIVATE%20LABEL%20SHOES-_-ZE-290846
