Although it first originated in New Orleans, Louisiana, Mardi Gras is
a much-loved event that the entire country celebrates with every city having
its own brand of festivities and merriment. Meaning “Fat Tuesday” in French,
the event marks the days of feasting and merriment before the fasting period of
Lent. In case you’re preparing to join in the fun for the first time, know that
the typical theme will be colors of green for faith, gold for power, and dark
purple for power.

As for the costumes, you can go all out with feathers, boas,
gaily-painted masks that are worn or carried on sticks, and of course, the
signature balloons, beads, doubloons, and necklaces. Look
