I have some friends asking me to post photos with my carnival costume and there you go. I make part of a samba group and I really enjoy to make part of it and to parade in Carnival. Our theme was "School" and I was representing the Music subject.

What do you think about the costume? Do you celebrate Carnival in your town/country?

What a lovely photo - you are gorgeous. We have a carnival in the summer, but it's only a small affair.

Cute costume. We have a Mardi Gras celebration in New Orleans, Louisiana. I wrote a post about it.

Thanks for sharing this beautiful photo with us. I loved the costume - which does reflect the Music Subject. At my place there are not too many carnivals where you find people / participants with different themes/costumes, but yes, there are many functions and festivals almost all throughout the year.

@fufurinha In case you do not mind, you said it is still not that warm in Feb at your place. and you are almost without any woolens on in the pic. How did you manage!

Great costume! Carnival is celebrated in a big way in New Orleans, Louisiana, but not much elsewhere in the US.

We don't celebrate carnival in my town. That is a very nice costume for the carnival and the samba group.

You look great in the photo. I love the way you incorporated recorders, xylophones, and a piano keyboard into your costume.
