OUTFIT #2: PURPLE PLAID FIT
When it’s cold out, skirts may not be the best option. Luckily, Kismet offers plenty of pant options, including these purple plaid pants. When paired with a soft, complimentary sweater, this outfit goes from cute to both cute and comfortable. The pants and sweater are available at Kismet, but this outfit can be redone with various tops and bottoms. Multi-purple plaid pants: $38.00 Deep V-neck cropped sweater: $38.50
OUTFIT #3: GREEN TULLE SKIRT
Even though it’s cold outside, some new outfits for warmer weather could come in handy during getaways over holiday break and, eventually, spring break. This corset top is a perfect statement piece and not only matches the green tulle skirt, but also many other pants and skirts available at Kismet. This outfit is also the manager and OU student Lily DeGraw’s favorite look! Tapestry corset top: $32.50 Tulle layered Skirt: $36.50
