The Best Outfits To Wear For Cinco De Mayo

Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of culture. If you were not already aware, Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of Mexico’s victory in war over France. The celebrations that take place on Cinco de Mayo include parades, food, music, dancing and even battle reenactments. If you are planning on getting together with friends and/or family for Cinco de Mayo, here are some of the best outfits you can wear to embrace Mexican culture and show your pride!

1. Paisley Print Open Back Mini Dress

This Paisley Print Open Back Mini Dress is perfect for Cinco de Mayo. Cinco de Mayo is all about dancing and having a good time with the people you are celebrating with, so wearing a flowing dress is the perfect attire. Most women are told to dress pretty casually, with florals and/or ruffles in their clothing, making this paisley pattern perfect for the occasion. They are also told to either wear bright colors or colors that represent Mexico, and as their flag is red, green, and white, this red and white dress kills two birds in one stone! I definitely recommend checking out this dress from Venus!

I mean, who does not live to dress up now and then? It is a beautiful bright red color with ruffles, and even though it’s pretty fancy I am sure you can get in a few dance moves in it!

3. Scallop Hem Tribal Embroidery Skirt

This skirt is EVERYTHING! I am literally obsessed with this skirt from Shein, and I think it is absolutely perfect for Cinco de Mayo! It’s pretty casual but not too casual, and it comes in two different colors, this red color and an orangey-yellow. The scallops on the bottom of the skirt are super flattering and the colors scream Cinco de Mayo! I prefer the red color if you want to be more festive, and you can pair it with just about any solid colored top, cream, yellow, white, green, you name it! The floral print on the skirt really gives me a Cinco de Mayo vibe, so I’m sure you will receive many compliments! Shop the skirt from Shein now!

Just be sure not to spill any chips and salsa on it! The print on the top of the dress with the pompom ruffled sleeves 100% fits the vibe of Cinco de Mayo. Also, check out that adorable bag and earrings the model is wearing to compliment the dress. Super cute and Shein sells them as well for a very fair price.
