Red White Blue: Fourth Of July Outfit Ideas

Dear Fashion Lovers,

Fourth of July is the time to wear your best patriotic outfits. Today I am going to share two outfits perfect for any festive occasion. I styled the looks and my sister and her friend modeled them.

Let me know in the comments what your favorite outfit is!

Outfit 1

This first outfit is great if you will be spending the day in a casual way. I paired an Old Navy tank with high waisted shorts. The blue converse tie in a fun, young vibe while adding blue to the outfit.

 The second outfit is great if you want to look a little more dressy but still casual. This patriotic dress looked perfect with little silver sandals.

Urban Shorts

Dear Fashion Lovers,

I love when I find shorts that fit well and are unique and different. The shorts I have on below are from Urban Outfitters and are my new short obsession.

If shorts don't fit well, you will not feel comfortable. But don't limit yourself to the plain denim shorts you have previously pretty much lived in. Shop outside the box and find a pair that will stand out. Maybe go for a pair with studs or lace detailing. Or maybe a pair that have a different coloring to them. Play around and wear something you might have passed up before.

Here are my shorts from Urban

Tulip Skirt

Dear Fashion Lovers,

Here is an outfit from a few nights ago when I went out for a sushi dinner!

Dress: Pacsun

Shoes: Target

Pearl Earrings: Vintage

Pearl Bracelets: Forever 21

Leopard Heart Bracelet: Betsey Johnson

I love collars, especially on dresses. The gold detail on this collar is so pretty. I love how this look came together. It is perfect for a little dinner date or party. To finish the look I of course had to do my favorite hairstyle... a top knot!
