Chris's/Kris's Closet (Christina)

Chris's Closet

On Saturday, Kristin and I met at Rehab Tavern for a Crawfish Boil. I've only seen crawfish in pictures, never ate them. So this event was an experience. I must say I am not a big fan of crawfish, but I did enjoy the sausage, corn, potatoes and beer.

After spending a couple of hours at Rehab we walked over to Land Grant Brewery and had a Mexican Lager and mini burgers. The afternoon was cool, and we met new people.

I didn't really know what to wear to this event, so I just threw something together. My hair was a hot mess, which is why I wrapped it up. My look turned out better than I expected.

Head wrap: Scraps of fabric, purchased from Amyang

Denim vest: Target (this vest was a denim jacket, but after several washes it started to distress, so I cut the sleeves off and made it a vest.)

Shirt: Thrift store find

Jeans: Gift

Necklace: Harlem Street Vendor

Cuff: Harlem Street Vendor

Wood beaded bracelets: ChristinaKristin (custom pieces)

Bracelet with red stones: Vendor @ the I AM AFRICAAN Day party NYC

Shoes: Express (purchased at Discount Fashion Warehouse for $10)

Clutch: Thrift Store Find

How was your weekend?

Be Blessed! Be Free! Be Fashionable!

Chris's Closet

I am Christina, the hot pink of ChristinaKristin. Welcome to my closet!

 Saturday the 29th, I celebrated my 35th birthday! Yes, 35, I'm still getting used to saying that. I was really unsure of what to do, but I knew that I wanted to do something that I had never done before, so I delegated the job of planning to Kristin. She is such a good planner, I knew that she would be up for it. We started early in the afternoon, the first stop was the Urban Scrawl. "Urban Scrawl is a 2-day arts festival organized by the Franklinton Arts District featuring the live creations of murals by talented artists from Central Ohio and beyond."

We did a beer tasting at a local brewery Land Grant. I have been more interested in beer these days, I guess my taste buds are getting old. I enjoyed 4 different beers that were brewed right here in town. Next stop was lunch at Strongwater, the food was amazing and the drinks were even better. Last stop for more alcoholic beverages was Rehab Tavern, we ran into an extremely intoxicated man who entertained us and bought drinks. Overall, I enjoyed my celebration. I was back home around 6:30 pm, took a nap and then danced the night away at a club. This is what I wore!

Tank: Mossimo, Target

Until Next Time,
