Fourth of July Fashion
Okay guys, this is a fun one.
It’s the holiday weekend, so I thought I would end this week by giving you MORE fashion tips. I must think I belong in Vogue or something. This isn’t any ordinary fashion blog post though...this is the red, white, and blue edition. For the Fourth of July, duh. Dare I mention that today is also my birthday? So pretty much, you’re celebrating me too. Have a shot of Tito’s...I dare you.
ANYWAYS, let’s have a little fun with this one. Maybe you own some of these items, maybe you don’t. Either way, we’re going to talk about our favorite red items, then our favorite blue items, and lastly, our favorite white items. Honestly, these colors never really go out of season anyways. Okay, let’s do it.
So, starting with red. This one is kind of a no brainer for me, however, some people may be totally turned off by it. BUCKET HATS. While the beaches are closed this weekend, nothing says Fourth of July fashion, like a bucket hat. I’m specifically referring to the Palaye Royale one. It’s literally so simple. Just says that on it. Like I said, you can’t go wrong with a bucket hat. There’s so many ways to dress it. Laying by the pool? Bucket hat. Putting some hot dogs on the grill? Bucket hat. Date night? Bucket hat. I mean, it’s just so versatile. An added bonus is the sun protection, you’ll be thanking me several years from now when you’re 60 and look 21. You’re welcome.
Okay, now moving on to blue. For this one, I kind of wanted to keep the poolside theme. I mean, that’s pretty much what Summer 2020 is going to look like. Confide has some booty shorts. They’re BOUND to grab someone’s attention. Especially because they say, “Look at me now,” on the back. This could also pair super well with the bucket hat. See the theme now?? While I know the men are quaking because booty shorts are not up their alley, I found an alternative. Scary Kids Scaring Kids actually has pool shorts! Our artists are literally screaming for you guys to get out of the house...safely.
Finally, we have white. This one is probably the most versatile. Almost everything we have is in white, so you have OPTIONS. If we’re going to go with my personal favorite, as always, I love Strala’s “Feel Good Gang.” During this extremely challenging and weird time, sometimes it’s nice to wear a reminder to take care of your emotions. Feeling good is self care, right? You can never go wrong with a white tee. It will match any of your holiday looks. It will also match literally every single thing I listed above. This is new for me, considering I haven’t worn a matching pair of socks since 2019. Maybe this holiday weekend I’ll start. Especially because we do in fact have a pair of white socks. I’m telling you. We have it all.
I hope you all have a safe and fun Fourth of July weekend. Take some time for your mental health, and definitely have a white claw in the sun. Wear a mask though.
Til next time…
