Sailing Away

Top: Forever 21 Pants: Zara (Similar here, here, and here) Shoes: Chloé Earrings: BaubleBar Necklace: BaubleBar Purse: Gucci (also avail. here) Sunglasses: Illesteva

This outfit would've been a perfect Fourth of July outfit but it's also a perfect summer nautical outfit. I don't know if it was the red, white, and blue, the culottes, or the tassels, but it instantly gave me a complete nautical vibe. I wanted to pair this outfit with these slides but since I was going out to lunch, I decided to pair it with my Chloé scalloped flats for a little bit more of a dressier look. As for these earrings, everyone needs to purchase a pair! The earrings are so lightweight and tassels are huge this season!

Splurge vs. Steal: Fourth of July



I've spent the past 9 years being called the nickname "America" so when it comes to the Fourth of July, I feel like it is my duty to wear the colors of the American Flag: red, white and blue, alll day long. I spent this Fourth of July in Disney World with my family and at night when we went to dinner I quickly changed into a dress covered in stars and paired with red flats. When it comes to Fourth of July I try to buy pieces that I can reuse so it doesn't bother me to splurge a little. I also perfer to wear star-covered pieces because I wear stripes about twice a week so I like some change. The above pieces are all pieces that were or are currently on my wishlist and can all be purchased at Farfetch. They pay be a tad bit on the splurge side but as I said  before they're pieces that you can reuse for years to come. The steal version of this outfit can be found here. I hope everyone had a lovely Fourth of July and enjoyed some great fireworks. Below are some of my favorite Fourth of July pieces and also red, white, and blue pieces.

 

 

Fourth of July: Overalls

Top: Asos Overalls: Macy's (Similar here, here, and here) Shoes: Topshop Purse: Kate Spade (Similar here, here, and here)

I love overalls and it is no secret, as seen here and here. I actually plan on wearing overalls this 4th of July when I go off to Disney World. Overalls are so easy, the only thinking that goes into it is, what top and shoes to pair it with. These shoes are a look-a-like pair of the Aquazzura Christy flats at a fraction of the price. They're so comfy and I actually plan on ordering another pair. The beauty about these flats is that they're all the rage right now and can be worn on Fourth of July with shorts or a dress and still not look too overdressed!

Fourth of July: Stars & Red

Dress: Old Navy Necklace: BaubleBar Sneakers: Converse Purse: Rebecca Minkoff

I fell in love with this Old Navy dress over a month ago and I knew instantly that I had to wear it on the Fourth of July. I wasn't sure if I would be pairing this dress with sandals or heels, wishful thinking on my part. My Fourth of July plans changed at the last minute so this dress just make an everyday summer dress but in the spirit of celebrating Fourth of July a little early, I decided to pair this dress with my red converse. The fact that this dress is made of a chambray material only made me love it even more!

 If you didn't know since high school I have gone by the nickname of "america" so it's like Fourth of July is my celebration, okay maybe I'm exaggerating a bit, but I love to dress up in red, white, and blue or stars and stripes to show how much I love this country. 

Fourth of July Inspiration

For today's post I had a possible Fourth of July outfit but I woke up to a terrible rain storm and we weren't able to shoot any looks on Sunday. Instead I decided to move things around and share some of my favorite clothing items that can worn this Saturday to celebrate America. When getting dressed on the fourth of July, you can wear red, white, and blue colors, or wear a clothing piece with an American flag on it.
Some of my favorite American flag pieces are:

You can pretty much wear anything that's red, blue or white and look patriotic so remember this Fourth of July to celebrate our amazing country and our freedom.
