I adore the versatility of Fourth of July celebrations. From relaxed beach outings to lively family barbecues, each year brings a festive and enjoyable atmosphere. Regardless of our plans, I always enjoy dressing in colors that enhance the celebratory spirit of the day. This year, we’ll be spending time at the beach and later at my in-laws’ backyard bbq, so I’m looking for styles that suit a day filled with sunshine.
Since summer is the perfect time to live in dresses, I’ve rounded up some of my favorite styles that also check the box of feeling patriotic. From classic stripes to bold reds, whites, and blues, these dresses are sure to make you feel festive and comfortable at any summer gathering. One standout is a linen midi, an easy throw-on – perfect for a backyard barbecue or a casual beach day. Pair it with some sandals and a pair of fun earrings, and you’re ready to go!
If you’re looking for something more relaxed, a simple, striped sundress can never go wrong. Opt for a combination of red, and white stripes for a subtle festive look. This versatile piece can be dressed with a wrap and wedges, sneakers, a knit sweater, and a baseball cap for a casual look. This red dress also deserves a shot out! Its a great fit and so flattering, and the price is hard to beat!
