Cinco de Mayo Festivities

Cinco de Mayo
Pin It!


Let's play a game, shall we?

Every time you hear "Cinco de Drinko" between now and this Sunday, you have to take a sip of your margarita.  Which also means that you need to have a margarita in hand at all times.  Not a bad game, if you ask me.

I myself am so excited for Sunday shenanigans with a Mexican twist ... margaritas on the rocks (of course I want a salted rim!), mariachi band music, cheesy enchiladas, guacamole galore, and lots of "¡ole!"-ing.

Charlotte has some fun events going on, including a big Saturday night block party on Montford and a Mexican beer garden event at Pacos Tacos on Sunday.  Oh, and Vida uptown has chihuahua racing ... enough said.

In the perfect world, there will be no no 4am Monday thirstiness, no 10am Monday morning headaches, and I'll be able to sport the cute ensemble above.

dress: Asos ($46, people, $46!)
top bracelet: Charlotte Russe ($6)
middle bracelet: Tory Burch  ($195)
bottom bracelet: Madewell ($10)
gold sandals: Aldo ($50)

Okay, so the dress, both friendship bracelets, and the sandals all combined cost less than the Tory Burch bracelet, but hey -- a girl's gotta have one splurge item, right?!

How will you celebrate Cinco de Mayo?
