Fast Cars & Freedom

This past weekend I traveled to North Carolina to visit some of my sorority sisters, and to attend the NASCAR Spring All-Star Race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway! It was my first NASCAR experience ever, and I have to say that it was such a great time, and I definitely want to go back!! I'm not really into NASCAR, but if there is one thing I'm into, it's tailgating. I don't really get a chance to do that in NY very often, and it always reminds me of college. And what did I wear during this all-day event?


What I'm wearing:
*Theory "Lorrie" Striped Silk Tank
*H&M Destroyed Denim Shorts (similar here)
*Rainbow Narrow-Strap Flip Flops in White
*Target Sunglasses (similar here)
*Forever 21 Reading Glasses Necklace

Yes, that is me shotgunning a beer.

The race! I picked a random driver to root for and he came in last! Boo! (Jamie McMurray) There goes my dollar.


What I'm wearing:
*Tibi "Isabella" Dress in Red Multi
*TOMS Canvas Wedges in Red
*Forever 21 Scalloped Purse


This ruffle dress has been my go to fun warm weather dress lately! (I wore it in Aruba as well.) The weather has not been that great in NYC right now (it's still pretty icky out right now) so it was so lovely to get some sun. 


Here I am with my friends E & E after having lunch the day after the race. (Although I probably didn't need to eat anything because I had Cook-Out in the middle of the night on the way back.) One huge thing I miss about the South is the barbecue!!! I had such a great time this weekend, I definitely need to go back!

  4. How does the Theory tank top fit? I can't find any reviews as to whether it fits true to size or runs big...Thanks!

  9. mcmanda,
    the top runs TTS to a bit big. I'm wearing a Small in this photo but you can see it's loose. I could have sized down but wanted a slouchier fit

  10. You are the cutest tailgater I've ever seen! Loving your striped top. I drooled over the dress version the other day. It looks so lightweight and classy.

  12. Such a pretty dress. I absolutely love the brightly colored print, and the TOMS look stellar with it! Looking forward to seeing other ways you wear this dress throughout the summer!

  13. Thanks Rosa! I just ordered the top myself and I love it. Question: Do you hand wash it or take it to the dry cleaner? I have washed silk before at home, but this top seems like it needs more care so it stays looking fresh and white....Thanks in advance!
