warm weather is here to stay, so it’s time to start thinking about what to wear
to those outdoor activities & get-togethers. With 4th of July right
around the corner, I’m planning my patriotic outfits for this weekend’s
celebrations. While I’ve always loved a good Americana look, I personally
prefer not to take the style too literally…so today I’m sharing how to
embrace the holiday in clothes that you can re-wear long after Independence
Day.
perfectly festive styles that are priced right so you can explore your
patriotic side without breaking the bank. I’m loving their fresh take on
summery stripes like this classic shirtdress that’s ideal for a picnic in the
park & setting off fireworks after the sun goes down. You can cinch
it in at the waist & add espadrille wedges or keep it simple with metallic
flat sandals. Either way, this dress is sure to be a summer favorite
thanks to its relaxed shape & comfortable fit. Bonus: it comes with a removable white slip
underneath that you can use for other dresses in your closet!
Headed to a more casual
soiree? This embroidered gauze cami provides a pretty pop of blue against
crisp white shorts – I love the tie detail in back & that the straps are
adjustable. Just add some red lipstick + dainty jewelry and you’re set
for a day at the beach or a backyard BBQ with friends. I always throw a
denim jacket in my bag to layer on top, just in case it gets a little breezy
later in the day.
