quinceanera
Latina birthday milestone
A quinceañera is a celebration marking a girl's fifteenth birthday in Latin American cultures, traditionally signifying her transition from childhood to womanhood.
The term refers both to the party itself—typically an elaborate event with formal attire, religious ceremonies, and dancing—and to the birthday girl: The quinceañera wore a pink ball gown.
