what to wear for the fourth of july

Over the weekend, we spent a lot of time outdoors, and whoa, summer is officially here! Our first stop of the day was Highland Park Village and then we headed to Northpark to do some shopping for a few upcoming trips. The rest of the day was spent wandering around parts of Dallas we hadn’t yet explored!

With temperatures nearing triple digits, it’s important to dress cool enough to stand the heat! We love an off the shoulder top for this! It’s a look that most everyone can wear. This off the shoulder top (also comes in red and only $42!) is perfect for those days when you are going to be outside, or in and out of your car. For weekend errands, jean shorts seemed like a perfect fit, but we can’t wait to wear this off the shoulder top for date night with white jeans. Oh, and it may just be an option for Fourth of July weekend! If you haven’t found an outfit yet, you can shop some of our favorite Fourth of July outfits here.

The Fourth of July is right around the corner, and we could not be more excited for some sun, cookouts and patriotic, but not tacky, outfits! What to wear for the Fourth of July can be somewhat challenging. Living in Texas, the Fourth of July can be extremely hot. Usually you can find us wearing a lightweight summer dress, jean shorts and a top, or a romper. But of course, all of them will have some sort of red, white or blue color scheme!

A few of our favorite red, white and blue pieces are below, but we wanted to call out some that we especially love:

This striped dress has been a crowd favorite so far this season. And we can see why– The off the shoulder ruffle is adorable and the stripes incorporate all patriotic colors!
Another striped piece, this loose flowing maxi, is a perfect way to look put together while still being casual. We love it with a pair of Tory Burch Miller’s or some white slides
This floral crop top and matching skirt is a great look for a dressier Fourth of July celebration
And, you can’t go wrong with a classic little white dress. This one looks like two pieces, which we love!
PS: Did you catch yesterday’s post featuring a chambray dress? This would also be a great dress to wear for the fourth of July. The chambray serves as a blank slate for accessorizing, and you could easily add more patriotic colors by wearing white shoes, or carrying a red bag!
