Blue & So You
Look like an American dream in head-to-toe blue. A flowy ruffled midi in a breathable cotton keeps you cool and on-trend in the hot summer temps. Choose classic stripes over stars for a timeless July Fourth look.

All White Everything
A cutout cream maxi and It-girl extras are key for your Fourth of July weekend in the city. So-right-now sunnies and a crush-worthy bag will have heads turning at your celebratory brunch. Add fiery statement earrings to elevate your look and make sparks fly.

Print It Out
A smaller print is a great (and subtle) way to rock red, white, and blue. Classic pearl earrings and a structured mini bag offer a polished take on your holiday look. Simple styling tones down this confetti-esque print making you the ultimate American girl.

Look Sharp
Think outside of the box for your July Fourth look. Ditch the khaki-and-button-down combo for something a bit more fun. Opt for a muted red sport coat and summery extras like face-flattering shades and a detailed fedora for a dapper holiday look.
