Outfit of the Day: Under the Sea

This past Saturday Tim and I spend the day out and about at different festivals around our area.


Our first stop was the Hayward Vintage Alley Car Show. This was the first time I was able to attend this second annual car show put on by our local retro reproduction shop, Vintage Alley. It was quite big and definitely exceeded my expectations. I was thinking it would just be a small strip of cars along a small section of B st, but really, they basically took over the entire downtown area with classic cars, classic and custom bicycles, several retail and food vendors, and even a large stage with a live band. We had a lot of fun looking at all the sights, as well as taking a stop at Vintage Alley and at the new ice cream shop next door.







After the car show we headed down to the annual Pittsburg Seafood Festival. There was so much seafood to be had there! I had a delicious crab sandwich, then shrimp and grits. I wanted to go back for a fried shrimp po boy but was too full by then. But I did get a bite or two of Tim's friend alligator before we left. There was jet ski races there as well as live bands. They advertised kite surfing demos but we didn't see them there. Either we missed it or it just wasn't happening on the day we went. I wish they would have had some kind of schedule of events listed for this festival. It seems like there was a lot of stuff going on including bath tub races and paddle board lessons, but for the life of me I couldn't find a list anywhere saying when what was going to be taking place. At least the seafood was always there :)


Outfit of the Day:

For this day's activities I had to wear my new Trashy Diva Trixie dress in Deep Sea Coral! The seafood festival seemed the perfect occasion to get out my new deep sea coral dress! ;) I paired this with a rose pink cropped cardigan by MAK also from Trashy Diva and a pair of navy flats for all the walking we were going to be doing.

  2. The vintage vehicles look so cool! You can tell from my current blog why I love bicycles at the moment. Amazing dress, I adore the pink accents, such a stand out.

    1. Thanks Imogen! Vintage bicycles are so cool and so pretty to look at. I wish they had even more restored vintage bikes on display. They did have a lot of fun custom bikes to see though :)
