Cinco de Mayo Outfits – What to Wear

Cinco de Mayo outfits should be colorful bright, and incorporate traditional aspects of Mexican culture. Embroidered dresses or blouses with intricate floral patterns are a good outfit choice. Red, green, yellow, and blue are among the color highlights. Skirts or clothing with ruffles or lace are a classic for women. Complete your dress with traditional huaraches, sandals, and accessories such as beaded necklaces, earrings and bracelets, embroidered belts, and bandanas.

Are you thinking about a serape? The world-famous Mexican blanket is often worn as a shawl or cape. Sombreros or charro hats are always worth considering—they feature sequins, embroidery, and ribbons and emphasize your individual style.
