"I Will Stay With You..."

"Stay With You" by John Legend is my vacation song right now! Last night I did a ton of work emailing, replying, getting back to (thank you EVERYONE), tumbling, everything getting caught up on a lot of the summer! This song was on full blast/repeat because I'm lovin' it these days! John Legend is great for summer easy listening for sure!

Best part, check this tweet from last night.

Do y'all have a working playlist? Good songs to listen to while you're knocking things off your "to-do" list? I usually use Pandora but could seriously build up a good "let's get down to business" playlist!

Carolina Cup Week: The What + Where

So, you heard it's time for Carolina Cup, huh? Well, what is Cup might you ask? And how cute is that Lilly logo for Carolina Cup this year?!

"The Carolina Cup race-meeting is a time honored South Carolina tradition that has achieved premier social event status. The annual 'rites of spring' draws over 65,000 fans from throughout the southeast, to enjoy the thrilling sport of steeplechase horse racing amid a flurry of spring fashions and elaborate tailgate parties. From our Hospitality Terrace to College Park, old friends meet and new friends are made during the afternoon of six races."

It's in Camden, SC and is one of the biggest tailgates in South Carolina!

Fraternities tend to take advantage of the day and turn it into a big ol' date function. All of my guy friends in frats have their outfits picked out, know who their dates are and are all looking forward to the day!! I just went shopping with a friend of mine to pick out his pants and his matching bowtie in his fraternity colors (look for a post about it tomorrow!!). We had such a fun time choosing all the different options in the store and they were even having a special Cup trunk show!!

Girls get ALL Lillyfied or wear their favorite BRIGHT colors and wear BIG hats and all the guys don their best seersucker, plaid, madras or colored chinos! Bowties are a MUST--again, I'll have advice coming up this week for all of it!!

Carolina Cup is on April 2, who's going?! Better question: WHAT ARE YOU WEARING!

Anyone have GREAT photos of last year?! Submit them on the Let's Be Preppy Facebook Page or email them to letsbepreppy@gmail.com!
