Carolina Cup Presents: Young Money

Are you fratty or a sorostitute?  Then I advise you to read this....get excited and ready for this spring and horse races my friends...it's almost here.

I found this blog called Shopping Savage and noticed there was a blog on there about the Carolina Cup.  I’m from the town right next to Camden, SC where this horse race takes place and grew up going to the Cup every year.  I thought this was really interesting and had great fashion advise for the upcoming horse races so I thought I’d “reblog” this.  Ahh, all of these pictures really make me excited and ready for spring.  
 The great-great-grandchildren of the founders of Carolina Cup have returned…and not of their own free will. But they knew they had to come home for Cup. It was tradition. And no one breaks tradition. Or bites the hand that bankrolls them.
