Spring is in the air here in the OC, and I am so excited to finally start dressing for the occasion. And spring clothing looks means spring photos! This year, I took my daughter and my nephew to take photos at The Lab Anti-Mall in Costa Mesa.
The Lab Anti-Mall in Costa Mesa is one of the most Instagrammable Places in Orange County. If you like artsy and eclectic backdrops, colorful and whimsy art installations, and mosiacs, The Lab is a fun place to visit and take photos.
This year, we decided to dress the kids up in OshKosh B'Gosh Spring Looks because I have an obsession for little kids in overalls – OshKosh's signature look. They also have a whole lot more style. I had a bawl picking out Dani's entire spring wardrobe for spring, including a couple great looks for Easter!
Instagrammable Places in Orange County
We had so much fun exploring and checking out all the artwork at the Lab Anti-Mall. It made the perfect backdrop for our photos. The vintage vibe was everything! And these two cousins had so much fun together as they are both two years old. Isn't it fun to have cousins the same age!
This color oil barrel wall is one of the most iconic art installations at the Lab Anti-Mall. It is also a running water feature, and is large enough to make an entire backdrop for any photo.
Rainbows are definitely a theme at Lab Anti-Mall. You will find eclectic benches painted in rainbows colors, and brightly painted color block walls.
Best Photos Spots at the Lab Anti-Mall
Make sure to explore the entirety of the Lab Anti-Mall. There are surprises around every corner. Around the back, we found this fun hopscotch area with plants, and murals.
OshKosh overalls are my absolute favorite items from OshKosh. They are a timeless look that can be worn throughout the years. I remember wearing them when I was little. I have had my eye on this little dress with the denim bib with white eyelet skirt since before Dani was born. And it is as cute as I had imagined it on her. You can pair with a top, or wear it alone during the warm summer months. Perfect for here in Orange County.
Kota has on the vintage frayed denim shorts that are made from super soft demin which makes them easy to wear and play in. They also have an adjustable waist which is really important for some kids. I love the bright rainbow colors of his graphic tee. OshKosh has endless choices of tees and tops that are priced perfectly to stock up on them.
This beautiful colorful mural is found on the north west side of the Lab Anti-Mall, on the side of Urban Outfitters. It is located across from some adorable cafe seating and bird houses. So be sure to check out this area.
Lab Anti-Mall Wall Murals
This Easter Egg colored wall is located near the restrooms on the east side of the Lab Anti-Mall. Of course it makes for great photos any time of the year, but especially Spring and you see from this cute photo. I just love how it turned out.
As you explore the different areas of the Lab Anti-Mall in Costa Mesa, be on the lookout for little eclectic spots throughout the Anti-Mall. This wall full of tags with hand written notes, and this hanging swing were favorites of the kids.
Plus there are many more Instagrammable spots! Orange County artists are always adding to the visual appeal. The Lab Anti-Mall makes a fantastic date spot, as it not only has great vibe, but it also has restaurants, coffee shops, retails shops and more. If you are into eclectic art with fun mom & pop pop-ups. I highly suggest making a day of fun there.
