        Colors, prints & sunshine make me a very happy girl.  And when I encounter colorful wall art, I feel the need to stop & capture the moment.  Living in the Florida Keys, this happens to me quite often.  Once you exit Miami & drive south on US-1 through the Keys, colorful wall decor adorns the outsides & insides of restaurants & shops, while barrels of shells line the roads & many of the buildings are covered in paintings of marine life (including our local K-Mart!)  The colorful walls give you the good vibes of Kokomo & make you feel as though you are completely in paradise.  Now excuse me while I enjoy a slice of key lime pie.

    Happy Saturday friends!  We spent the other day playing tourist around downtown Key West.  When we came across a cart full of conch shells, I realized I coordinated quite well & decided to snap a few shots.  Neon is definitely a staple in my wardrobe, and I love pairing it with shades of pastels for a great color contrast.  So, when I laid my hazel eyes on the new line of Ted Baker bags for spring, adding one to my wardrobe was a obvious MUST!  (Check out the line here.)  Maybe their inspiration was from a conch shell?  Its quite possible as they are very bright & beautiful.  For those of you who don't know, they are also a protected species here in Florida (don't go collecting shells) & rhyme with 'HONK!'  (Just in case you were planning your next vacation to the Florida Keys, now you're prepared.)
   Rarely do I have a Saturday off, but today I'm off to enjoy music, art & local seafood (including imported conch) at the annual Florida Keys Seafood Fest! Too-da-loo!
