Latin teen tradition gets a modern twist – Quinceanera
Tagged: latinaPosted on: June 11th, 2007“Looking every bit the Cinderella in a glittering tiara and an ivory sparkled gown, Samantha Marie Lynch entered center stage on a pale blue carriage pulled by four groomsmen.
It seemed like the perfect start to a traditional quinceanera, the coming-of-age ritual for Latina girls that is equal parts 15th birthday party and debutante ball.
Samantha is among a growing number of girls who are helping to create a modern version of an old tradition, a new generation of Latina teenagers who are fusing American style with their Hispanic roots.”
