Gee…the year is almost over and I’m already planning for #carnival2019 ! If that’s you too – that means you’re looking at past carnival reviews, tracking flights, booking accommodations and taking advantage of sale after sale after sale for those cute carnival looks. While I’m no guru or stylist, I still love looking my best during carnival season and just in general to be honest so I thought a fun post would be to recap my favorite carnival/fete wear outfits + where I bought them and because I couldn’t pick my top 3 carnival/fete wear outfits, I went with 15! So enough reading…let’s get into the deets.

Wakanda Forever. Never in my life did I think I was going to get the chance to wear anything inspired by the movie until I did the UberSoca Cruise and I did it last minute so I couldn’t find African print but this jumpsuit spoke to me.

Platform Heels | Nasty Gal | find it here.
Necklace | gift | find similar here.
An any fete kind of look. Well not any fete. These heels should only be worn indoors just saying unless you’re careful not to get them dirty. But this look is perfect for a Friday night party/fete after drinks and dinner.
Top | Nasty Gal | find it here.
Bandeau | Pretty Little Thing | find similar here.
Tights | old
Clear Wedges | Dolls Kill | find similar here.
Neon! I mean bright bright. I love this jumpsuit not just because of the color but because of how it fits! If all my clothes could fit like this… I wore this to Bliss all inclusive during Cropover 2018 and unfortunately its sold out.
Jumpsuit | Pretty Little Thing | sold out, find similar here.

This outfit didn’t make it to a fete yet but I’m definitely planning on wearing it somewhere for 2019. I heart leopard print with a passion.

A J’ouvert outfit- basically a sports bra and a bikini bottom. + the super cute Carnivalista Fishnet Short tights (use my code BAHAMIANISTA for a discount). Literally put this together 30 minutes before heading out to Miami Carnival J’ouvert.

Bikini Bottom | Dolls Kill | sold out – find similar bikini set here.

I love any fete concept I can match an outfit to-especially when there’s complimentary decor. Would wear this combo or something similar to another all inclusive.

And I thought I couldn’t wear another costume after Miami Carnival 2018; my sister at Shop.Evolve hooked me up with some last minute carnival wear for Midnight Mas on UberSoca Cruise. And shout out to Gògè W.I for the custom cooler canteen. I literally put every drop of liquor in it.

In addition to custom body wear, you can add any sort of custom item as an outfit for fete wear from custom shoes to custom hats.
This was one of my favorite outfits EVER in my history of doing carnivals/fetes lol. I wish I could duplicate it several times over in different prints and colors. Actually I just might do that…
