Even if Adriana had already made a name for herself as “the most valuable Victoria’s Secret Angel,” the model can’t help but long for home now and then.

Luckily for Adriana, the annual Veuve Clicquot Carnaval allowed her to taste a little bit of home. The Angel enjoyed herself as she enjoyed the third Carnaval held in Miami.

Adriana wanted to try something colorful and festive for the Carnaval, so she turned to her recent favorite designer, David Koma.

The London-based brand dressed Adriana in one of the line’s Spring/Summer 2017 looks, featuring their iconic jeweled skirt and cutout shoulder top.

While neon yellow isn’t our favorite color on Adriana, we love her willingness to try new things. The mom-of-two finished her look with a pair of Neil J. Rodgers “Brooke” sandals.

Adriana’s left foot features an eye-catching tribal tattoo that enhances her natural beauty.

Adriana said the Veuve Clicquot Carnaval felt like home because she got to sip some drinks and listen to good music by the beach.

The model also said she was glad it was held in Miami, her home away from home. Unfortunately, the Neil J. Rodgers “Brooke” sandals are unavailable online.
