What to Wear on July 4th

Houston fashion blogger styles a red white and blue off the shoulder dress.

4th of July is right around the corner and I love the idea of putting a little twist on my red, white & blue – with this off the shoulder floral number. I mean, who says you have to wear stars and stripes? Today I’m chatting about our plans for the 4th & the deets on this under $50 dress (+ a few different ways to wear it.) I’m also rounding up several other patriotic looks (all under $100) that I’m sure you’ll be swooning over just as much as I am!

Apart from the oh-so-stunning embroidered details, what I love the most about this dress is that it’s so lightweight & easy to throw on & go. It also makes a great pool cover up! It runs a tad large to give it more of that “carefree boho feel” but with that also comes extra length which is always a plus when you’re carrying a baby on your hip! Chicwish is hands down one of my favorite places to shop for affordable summer dresses and they did not disappoint with this boho floral off the shoulder dress. You can snag this dress for an extra 10% off with the code JUL10 too!

Can y’all believe 4th of July weekend is just two weeks away!? How is time flying SO fast?! We’ll be spending our holiday weekend visiting family in Mississippi. The pups are coming along for the ride and I can’t wait to road trip with my peeps! I’m also excited to spend a few days poolside with Patrick & Annie. I’ve brought Annie swimming a few times but Patrick hasn’t been able to join us just yet. It’ll be so fun for the two of us to watch her kick her little toes in the water together!

Speaking of 4th of July, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite red, white and blue patriotic inspired looks below. I think any of these options would be perfect for America’s b-day!

As always, thanks for stopping by the blog!
