Thursday Trend: Fourth of July

06/27/13 | C. Wonder, Diane von Furstenberg, DKNY, Fashion and Style, Frye, holiday, J Crew, Kate Spade, Miss Selfridge, OPI, Rebecca Minkoff, Thursday Trend, UGG, Vineyard Vines

It is CRAZY that the 4th is one week from today and that Monday marks the half mark of 2013, wow! One of my favorite things about the 4th of July is that you can dress up for the occasion but it is not necessary to buy anything special.  All you have to do is put together an outfit consisting of red, white, and blue pieces from your closet and you are good to go. However, it is also a good excuse to buy something new! I have put together four outfits I love:

Striped Shirt / White Shorts / Pearl Studs / Gold Bangle / Patterned Wedges
White Dress / Blue Studs / Striped Bag / Red Nail Polish / Blue Sandals

Blue Dress / Gold Necklace / White Tote / Red Bracelet / Gold Shoes
Red Top / White Jeans / Blue Clutch / White Earrings / Gold Rings / Red Wedges 

Without question I will spend the day with my family, barbecuing and hopefully going to the beach.  On the evening on the fourth I will be watching fireworks, like I do every year, and would love to do so in either of these night time outfits!

How do you celebrate the 4th?  What do you wear?

    oh my goodness, Kelly. I’d wear any of these in a heartbeat. But I think the second is stealing my love the most. Fabulous styling, love. If you have a moment, I’d love if you’d check out my latest photo diary. ๐Ÿ™‚ xo
