3 Festive Looks for the 4th of July

What Are We Wearing?

Cue the backyard barbecues, boat days, and fireworks because the 4th of July is right around the corner. Show off some serious patriotic, nautical, summer style that feels festive and chic and not overly done or cheesy. I am pulling pieces for distinct looks that feel stylish yet comfortable from everything from a beach bonfire, to a friendly gathering at home, to a glamorous night of fireworks and good memories. 

All-American Effortless

Perfect for daytime BBQs, parades, or a casual brunch with friends. You can never go wrong with a classic denim look. Pair high-waisted white denim shorts with a lightweight chambray or linen gauze dress shirt, French-tucked for a relaxed vibe. Add red espadrille sandals and a raffia crossbody for that summery

Americana Aesthetic 

Chic by the Shore Perfect for boat parties, beach bonfires, or sunset cocktails. Think navy, white, and denim midi dresses with luxe touches. A breezy striped midi dress in a cotton or linen blend keeps things classic and cool. Layer on a metallic chain belt and opt for white cat-eye sunglasses to add some flair without overdoing it. For footwear, go with platform or flatform sandals that won’t sink in the sand.

Firework-Ready Glam

Perfect for rooftop parties, fireworks shows, or a romantic date night. If you’re heading out for a night of celebration, bring the drama with a bold red summer-appropriate cocktail dress. Balance the statement dress with sleek, minimalist heels in a nude or gold tone to keep the focus on your dress. Add minimalist jewels, a glossy clutch, and a fresh manicure and you will look radiant under the glow of the fireworks.
