The Potted History of Notting Hill Carnival

If you are interested in reading more about the #history of it all you can find a guide here: http://www.thelondonnottinghillcarnival.com/about.html

Below is the link and the guide from Time Out London magazine for those who have never been to the #Carnival, together with what I thought was their rather hilarious summary of what to wear . . . .

This description from Time Out London magazine about what to wear for #Carnival did so make me laugh:

‘Notting Hill Carnival outfits shouldn’t be stressful. Compared to New Yorkers and Parisians, we Londoners have pretty free reign with what we wear. Socks with sandals on the Victoria line? Clashing prints on the the Number 38? Not an eyelid will bat. That being said, there are very few occasions when it’s socially acceptable to look as though you’ve just skinned Big Bird for his beautiful plumage, which is one of the best things about Notting Hill Carnival: feathers, sequins and glitter are not only tolerated, they’re positively encouraged. But before you reach for your Native American headdress, stop and check out our guide on what to wear to Carnival without looking like a twat’

Love your “Correspondent” duties per usual and to the glam part I say, “WEPA!!!!!” and you know that’s the highest expression of latin spice joy & acceptance amongst Boricuas when we’re encompassing ” You go with your bad self, Oh yeah, get down- etc!” so yeah- representating the other end of the Carribean and Latinos in the US, “WEPA!!”
