Sunday Style - Fourth of July Fashion

Our hugely popular Sunday Style feature is back today after a short break! Yesterday was the Fourth of July, Independence Day, as well as my sister’s and brother-in-law’s anniversary, and barbeques and casual outdoor parties have been taking place all across the United States. So this week I have put together two very stylish outfits that are perfect for the weekend's celebrations!

The first look is a gentle version of Americana. First we have stars in the form of iheartfink’s knit shirt (1) with a hand silkscreened starburst pattern in gold. The gold buttons on the shorts (2) from ROSIEretroclothing reference back to the color of the starburst pattern, and also give the shorts the style of Navy uniform trouser. Add Foret’s Boho star earrings (3) with their golden amber.

A handmade clutch (4) from sewgoodandtrendy will hold your essentials without weighing you down. Add some more blues to the outfit with a teal stretch bracelet (5) from cooljewelrydesign and a fluorite pendant (6) from Poshracrafts, which both also feature silver star details.

1. Handmade Top, iheartfink
2. Navy Shorts, ROSIEretroclothing
3. Ethnic Star Earrings, Foret
4. Handmade Mini Clutch, sewgoodandtrendy
5. Silver Star Beaded Bracelet, cooljewelrydesign
6. Fluorite Necklace, Poshracrafts
7. Lace up Greek Sandals, GreekChicHandmades
8. Skateboard Wooden Sunglasses, GoWoodSunglasses
9. Golden Honey Lip Butter, soapopotamus

Mix in a little more gold with fun lace up sandals (7) from GreekChicHandmades. Sport a pair of funky skateboard sunglasses (8) from GoWoodSunglasses, and slick on a light layer of golden shine to your lips with soapopotamus’s sweet golden honey lip butter (9), and you are ready for a day of fun!

My second look is a much more traditional Fourth of July outfit. I describe it as traditional, but it’s really louder Americana - bright red and blue, with stars and sequins, and American flag prints. Start with ICaughtTheSun’s fun 4th of July tank (1) with white stars on a blue background and a bright big shiny sequined red star on the chest. Add white jeans (2) with handpainted red and blue glitter outlined stars from RetOriginals.

5. Patriotic Kumihimo Bracelet, NancysCrystalFantasy
6. Stars & Stripes Nail Wraps, SoGloss
7. America Beach Bag, RowdyRiver
8. USA Flag Kimono, AnytimeScarf
9. American Flag Flask, LiquidCourage

Now is the time to adorn yourself with bold red, white, and blue jewelry from the JET Team! Start with cserpent’s pearl and crystal dangle earrings (3). Then pop on a red, white and blue necklace (4) from DesignsbyCher, and finish with a patriotic kumihimo bracelet (5) from NancysCrystalFantasy.

A stars and stripes manicure (6) from SoGloss would look so cute with this outfit! Throw a blanket into a fun RowdyRiver tote (7) and head off to the fireworks. Remember to bring something to keep the chill off your shoulders - like the Americana kimono (8) from AnytimeScarf - or carry something in LiquidCourage’s American flag flask (9) to keep you warm!

Have a fabulous weekend, see you all next week!
