The Venice carnival is just a little over a month away and I can't stop daydraming about it. The last time Balazs and I went to Venice was four years ago and those photos are from that time. If you ever been there then you'll probably agree that the city feels so energized, incredibly festive and insanely busy. My jaw droped each time I saw one of those beautiful costumes (imagine the effort they had to put into it). Have you even been to Venice during the carnival season? How did you like it? xoxo
Ps: We were really lucky with the weather. It was sunny all the way through.

I dream of visiting Venice someday...
The last couple had two little dogs and even though you can't see it at the photo, both puppies were fully dressed up to match the theme:)
I've been to Venice a couple times, but not during carnival season. It looks like a great event, for sure! XX
I've never been but it looks lovely!! perhaps one day :)
Looks completely amazing! I love those little dogs. :)

Amazingggg!
I am so jealous! When I was studying in Italy, the weekend that I was supposed to go to Venice I sprained my ankle really badly(not a big surprise with all of those crazy stones and bricks in the Rome sidewalks) and I couldn't go!
Never been to anything like this!! Jealous...
xo
I have been to Venice but not during the Carnival! It looks amazing. I love the canals in Venice and the overall atmosphere.
Amazing pageantry - I can only imagine. And the dogs!!
oh I have been and I love it there..would love to go back to any place in Italy! Love these images...so fun and colorful
Awesome photos! I love the costumes ;)
Gosh, that reminds me of Mardi Gras in New Orleans a little bit. I'll bet it was a great time.
This looks amazing! So much eye candy!
Lucky! I've never been to Venice, period.

I love how the photos you captured are all of 'couples'. so much detail. I went to Venice several years ago but it was during the month of May. I don't blame you for daydreaming about the trip you made there!
Wow, it would be so cool to see that. I hope you get lots more pictures to share with us.
yeah, the efforts must be awesome !
i love the details of the costume. festive and fantasy-like.
thanks for sharing the gorgeous pics, diana !
That is soo cool!! It reminds me of Italy in Epcot Center at Disney World. They have people dressed like this for night shows! This must have been a sight!! =)

hi diana! sorry to be so out of the loop these past few months. nope, i've never been to venice but would love to go someday!
happy new year friend!
I've been to Venice once, not during carnival season, but it was MAGICAL. It's true what they say...you can't discover Venice until you let yourself get lost!
Ah, you know how much I adore Venice.. but I have never been to Carnival season yet...
Have a nice day, Kristina
You arise beauteous in the horizon of the heavens
Oh living Aten who creates life.
When you shine forth in the Eastern horizon you fill every land with your beauty.
You are so beautiful: you are great; gleaming and high over every land.
Your rays embrace the lands and all you have created;
You are Re and reach out to all your creations, and hold them for your beloved Son.
You are afar, but your rays touch the earth;
Men see you, but know not your ways.
Thanks...wonderful girl!
I've been to Venice, but not during Carnival. Lucky you!!

I was lucky enough to visit Venice in high school and, quite frankly, became obsessed. Would love to go back during Carnival!
