    Celebrar el Cinco de Mayo!

    On May 5th 1862, the Mexican army was victorious over the French at the Battle of Puebla. While this battle did not win the war against the French occupiers, it may have marked the beginning of the end.
    To commemorate this important event, people in the US & Mexico have parades and lavish feasts which feature folkloric music and dances.
    Cinco de Mayo is a fabulous chance to say Olé and celebrate by wearing beautiful vintage Mexican clothing, jewelry & accessories from VFG members.
