D.C. Caribbean Carnival Photos!

Well ya'll...here are the photos from the carnival. I saw a lot of interesting things that day. :o I will say that! It was so HOT so I really admired the people in the parade dancing. My shirt was soaking wet by the time I left. So imagine how they probably felt....

This girl was getting down! She had the whistle in her mouth and everything.

I really liked their headpieces. It looked very regal.

They were working it ya'll!!!

This was the only thing that I saw that looked inappropriate (in the parade). She had on lace leggings with a thong on?! My friend and I were like wth.....Sidenote: Her locs were beautiful. ;-)

It was so many people out there. This is just probably 1% of them....

I don't get the umbrella thing when it gets hot. Why not just wear a hat?

These little cars are so cute. I would never buy one. I just like to look at them.

And one of them was a drop top! :D Who knew they made a convertible for the SmartCar?

Looking back at my outfit, I believe I was overdressed! lol I left shortly after taking the rest of these photos. That heat was kicking my butt!! I couldn't wait get home and take (another) shower. All in all, I had fun and I would definitely go again. :-)-K.D.

D.C. Caribbean Carnival Outfit Inspiration

I'm going to the D.C. Caribbean Carnival this weekend and I'm so excited! :-) I've tried going in the past with my husband, but we always would arrive too late. Not this time! lol, I'm on it. I don't know what to wear, so I thought it would be fun to look for a little inspiration. Check out these photos from the D.C. Caribbean Carnival from the previous years. My Miley Cyrus romper would have been perfect for this, but I want to wear something different.

Here some pics from the parade that's a major part of the carnival. Warning: Photo overload! ;-)

I love the girl's top on the far right!

Wow. I would be scared as hell to get on those things!
Work it mama!

This girl looks so familiar...

Looking at all these photos makes me want to wear something colorful. Granted-my outfit won't be as risque. They're in the parade so they have an excuse. Just when I was going to wear the shirt the hubs got me....Do any of you ladies live in the D.C. area? Are you going to the Caribbean Carnival??? Or have you been in previous years? How was it? :-)
