4th of July Cookout

RED, WHITE & BBQ

You can always find me dressed according to the season, or in accordance to any holiday, event or gathering I'm attending. I believe it's important to not only dress to impress, but, get excited enough to take the time to find the perfect outfit. Fourth of July, amongst the other holidays, such as, Memorial Day and Labor Day all have a very similar theme going. Each of them are patriotic and showcase the red, white and blue color palate. As an American, this color combo can be worn and embraced all year round. Having that in mind, 4th of July is a week away and if you haven't already found your outfit, it's time to do so.Want to use my outfit as inspo? Please do! It is fun, light and flattering. My denim dress is from Forever 21 and I chose to dress it up with my navy blue tasseled earrings which are from Francesca's. I'm wearing white saddles, although you can't see them and of course had to tie my whole outfit together by wearing my bold, red matted NYX lipstick. As for my hair, I wanted to go get it up and off my neck, but still wanted a flirty and fun look. I achieved just that by throwing my hair into a multiple banded ponytail, which is currently trending and extremely easy to do.

Happy summer planning! I hope my post inspired you to host or at least attend a 4th of July cookout, which is right around the corner. If you are looking to be the host with the most, use my post as a tool or reference for your upcoming 4th of July cookout or any summer social for that matter. Remember, details are key and the element that leaves that lasting impression for your guest. Get creative and have fun planning your next summer bash!  Stay tuned for my 4th of July Pool Party post coming to you shortly. You can never go wrong with BBQ, good friends and sunshine. Be young, be wild and free, this land was made for you and me.
