What to Wear: America's Birthday

The biggest birthday party of the summer is mere days away...the land of the free and home of the brave turns 238 this year! The weather forecast looks fabulous (80 degrees and sunny), so you should too.

We took the guesswork out of picking out some great pieces so you have time to throw some extra brats on the BBQ or perfect that red-white-and-blue pedicure.


Hourglass Lilly dress, sizes XS/S and S/M, $46. Tulip shirt, sizes XS-L, $114. Red convertible clutch: $28

This blue, cotton dress from Hourglass Lilly is great for warm summer days. Layer an oversized Tulip shirt on top for the fireworks show later on when the temps drop, and a pop of red with a cute and easy crossbody clutch. Finish the look with a great pair of red sandals or bright red lip!

Lulu's Petals necklace: $58. La Vie Star necklace: $52

Keep a mini fireworks display on you at all times! Layer our new arrival from Lulu's Petals with a delicate, gleaming star necklace from La Vie.

Miilla Dress, sizes S & M, $60. Mathiasen blazer, sizes S-L, $136.

For a slightly more formal affair, slip into this white embroidered shift dress from Miilla. We gave it some structure with a navy blazer with amazing white piping from Mathiasen (and it's on sale!).

Necklace: $24

Bold beading and colors finish off this look perfectly. This bib necklace will define the neckline of your look and add a sophisticated element to your look.

Vintage St. John's Evening top, size S, $34. Vintage Nicole Miller skirt, size 6, $36.

For the vintage fiend, look no further than this amazing knit top from St. John's Evening. The pretty detailing adds just the right amount of sparkle to the ensemble. We tucked it into this amazing, vintage red pencil skirt from Nicole Miller!

Earrings: $42. Necklace: $62

If bling is all you need to stand out in the sea of 4th-goers, Lulu's Petals has you covered. This set is like wearing a sparkly little explosion around your neck and on your ears!
