What to wear for your July 4th cookouts, parties and more

Can you believe the Fourth of July is less than a month away? Where has the time gone? Be prepared this year, and show up brighter than a firework with stylish outfits and accessories down below.

From classically chic stripes to standout combinations of red, white, and blue I’ve found the perfect outfit inspiration for you! Find standout summer pieces that can be worn well beyond the Fourth of July.

Of course, I know that making a fashion statement isn’t what Fourth of July is about, but I also know that looking your best is just as important as it is any other day. Whether you are celebrating the Fourth of July at a backyard barbecue, by the water or at a festive fireworks show, here are some American-themed ensembles to display your patriotism.

All Red:

Starting with red, these pieces will be a standout. The Charles Henry Off the Shoulder Dress is vibrant and classy with a darling ruffle. Pair this outfit with white, blue or neutral accessories for a perfect look. I am in love with the Scalloped Marysia Swimsuit. This piece is definitely a splurge item but will be a head turner in the sun. Plus, if your not into wearing a lot of red, then the Yves Saint Laurent ‘Rouge Volupte Shine Oil Lipstick’ would be stunning with a white top or dress. Needing a red accessory that you can wear after the Fourth? The Kate Spade New York Carlita Tassel Sandals are versatile and trendy and will go with almost any look!

Men’s Ideas

Bright colorful stripes are all you need to be ready for the fireworks. The O’Neill Hyperfreak Motivator Board Shorts have a four way stretch for comfort and DWR coating to dry fast. If you’re at the beach or pool and need a quick fun shirt to throw on, the Southern Tide Skipjack United T-Shirt is perfect. This tee will go great with shorts or jeans all summer long. Lastly, the Nixon ‘Sentry’ Stripe Canvas Watch adds just the right amount of red white and blue to any outfit. 

Red, White, and Blue Ideas

Add pieces to your wardrobe that you can wear for Fourth of July and throughout the summer. The J.Crew Tipped Seersucker One-piece is perfect for pool days and the bow tie shoulders are too cute! I also love the Cora Embroidered Mini-Dress for a beach or pool swimsuit cover-up. Plus, if your looking for a simple twist to your outfit, the the Classic Silk Corded Clip Earrings or the B.P American Flag Bandana are excellent accessories. Lastly, the Wildfox Baggy Beach Sweatshirt is oversized and cozy for a night-time fire or chilly day.
