Dressing Up for the Fireworks?

Everyone loves a reason to get dressed up, so go on, show a bit of national pride and get dressed up in the Red White and Blue!
Here are some great ways to create a fun festive outfit while still maintaining some sence of savvy style and not crossing the scary line of costume!

Your color choices of course are red white and navy blue, but that doesn’t mean you have to look like the American flag!
Put these colors together thoughtfully, be bold one piece and subtle with something else.
Besides color, Stars and stripes are of course the theme.
Stars may be hard to find, but polka dots give off the same effect and nothing is more fun than pairing polka dots and stripes!

If you are planning on having a picnic and sitting on the grass to watch the fireworks, Blue jeans with a white or red top and fun shoe look very festive and fun.
For hot afternoon colored denim is big this season, so choose red shorts. They are perfectly paired with a navy and white striped top (don’t forget you white straw sun hat!)
For a more formal evening look, try a red dress with a white shrug and a navy clutch
A simple navy dress with a red belt or a scarf is also a clean, chic look.
A red or navy striped Top, white pants and a polka dot shoe is chic, playful and perfect for a more sophisticated look.
















For a real easy relaxed look try the hot item this summer, a striped (Blue and White of course) maxi dress. Pair it with red shoe or a red hat and you are “easy breezy” set to go.

What are you wearing for summer’s biggest Holiday?
