In the words of Miley Cyrus, “It’s a party in the U.S.A.”

Summer is here and the 4th of July is in two days. You may have plans to either head to the shore, have a BBQ, or go to the park to watch the firework show. Whatever plans you may have, if you don’t own a piece of clothing with the American flag to wear, that’s okay because there are other ways to represent the colors of our country fashionably.

Depending on where you live, the weather will be about 100 degrees and you’ll want to dress cool for the high temperatures. To make it easy and your last-minute choice, if you have a red, white, or blue clothing piece, you’re halfway there to make your outfit complete.

If you’re more of a dress kind of gal, a striped dress from Forever 21 is not only a fashion statement but a perfect way to represent summer vibes. As for solid-colored dresses, you can choose any color from red, white, or blue for the occasion. However, if you’re looking for a pop of color this 4th of July, a red-colored dress from H&M can also be worn for other holidays. For instance, Valentine’s Day, Christmas, even special occasions such as anniversaries. Therefore, before you go and buy an outfit this 4th of July, think about whether you have an outfit already and if not when and where you can wear your outfit again.
