Kristin in Kensington
The streets of London are like a personified magazine; as I walk the streets of South Kensington, I feel as if I am a part of a British Vogue spread. The scenery as well as the people of London consistently evoke style inspiration. Specifically in South Kensington, there are streets of white and pristine Victorian…

Taking Flight
The things that scare me are the things I crave the most. Venturing across the world for an entire year is not excluded from this list. In a matter of days, I will be on a ten-hour flight to London, UK. Crazy right? All those months of browsing travel boards on Pinterest, brushing up on…

Clothes and Cathedrals: Portland Edition
Cities are a mix of old and new: a contrast of cathedrals and skyscrapers. Portland is no different from this aspect. While some may consider Portland to be a hipster haven, it is also a place of history, one that includes gothic churches built in the early nineteen hundreds. My friend and I found one…

The Honorary Oregonian
Wanderlust isn’t just international: it can be cured in America too. This last week, I hopped on a plane to visit my college roommate, Rebekah in Oregon.

Opposites
Everyone has their opposite—there’s a night to day, a yin to yang, and a Chereen to Kristin. Like any opposing forces, my cousin Chereen and I came into the world around the same time—well okay she is ten months older than me (but close enough!). Anyway, from the moment we could talk, the two of…

Flashback Fashion: Nineties
The phrase “That was so twenty years ago” was so twenty years ago. It has gone out of style because trends from various decades are in once again! Recently, the nineties have made a comeback, and I for one am all for it! As a nineties kid, I have a claim to a wonderful era…

Retrobe (Retro Wardrobe)
Here’s something I’ve discovered about my personal sense of style. It is pretty classic, but sometimes I’m willing to get a little gutsy with my look. If that means wearing an outfit that can either be taken as super trendy and unique or be borderline grandma, I’m more than okay with it. Sure I drink…
Keeping it Krischic
