South of The Border...In South Carolina

What would a road trip be without a few stops at some crazy road-side tourist attractions.
Just south of the North Carolina border lies a peculiar road side stop that takes on a bright and colorful Mexican theme.  When I saw the signs advertising this place along the highway (quite conspicuously might I add, seeing as the billboards start almost 60 miles before you get to this place,) I had to check it out. . 

This place is full of restaurants, souvenir shops, and a overabundance of giant signs emulating the vivid theme.

Being the blogger I am, I couldn't miss out on an a perfectly good opportunity for a photo op.

 

They had the coolest vintage inspired ice cream shop there.

 

The first thing you will notice if you ever visit this place, is all the crazy statues they have sitting in the middle of all the parking lots, in front of all the shops and restaurants, basically everywhere.

I couldn't resist these adorable bright blue and white animals.

My blue cropped top is from Forever 21 

My shoes are Vince Camuto.

 These colorful and fun shorts are from Francesca's.

 Thanks for stopping by today!

 If you ever find yourself South of the Border (the North Carolina border that is,) stop by and explore this quirky little place. I can ensure it to be an amusing little distraction from a long road trip.

OOTD: Floral Print & Ripped Denim

My Floral print obsession this season has only grown...I just can't get enough!

I love this top from forever 21 because the beautifully colored floral print is placed over a neutral background making it pop in such an effortless way. 

When I wear this I feel comfortable and cute at the same time; if you ask me, that's always the perfect combo for any kind of outfit.

 

 

 

 

This blouse is so easy to wear with basically any bottom but I love it with my ripped jeggings from American Eagle.



 

 

 

I found this pretty statement necklace for an even prettier price at Forever 21.  Here is a link to more fun statement necklaces available at Forever 21 now

White on White

 

Outfit Of the Day

 

Wearing white on white is a trend we have seen a lot of this spring and I'm happy to report it looks like it will be just as stylish to strut your stuff in an all white outfit this summer too. Since embellished tops are in all the stores this summer, I've paired this creamy white blouse from Forever 21 with my favorite white skinny jeans from BCBGeneration.find them HERE.

(P.S. They're on sale!!)

 

When wearing layered color, it's important to keep your accessories tonal as well. It gives the look symmetry and balance. Here I accentuated the gold beaded accent in my blouse by wearing gold pumps and carrying a simple, but super, fun gold clutch wallet from Kate Spade.

 

Wearing all white gives you an instantly tailored look...

  

 

 

Metallic shoes and accessories are definitely on trend for the spring and summer seasons this year. Every designer has jumped on the band wagon and most have their own interpretation, which I think is so fun! The ones shown above happens to be Gianni Bini, but Vince Camuto has managed to create some unbelievably adorable metallic shoes this season, check out my favorite booties by him in a previous post HERE.
