The Fourth of July is the highlight of the summer. Literally because bright and loud fireworks are the staple of this patriotic holiday, but also because it’s the perfect time to spend at a backyard barbeque, the beach or poolside with friends and family.
Depending on what you had planned for the patriotic holiday, your outfit options may have varied.
However, whether it’s a backyard barbeque, boating or watching the fireworks, these bloggers had just the right suggestions for you to look fabulous this past Independence Day.

This suggested look is for a dinner party, or slightly more formal event other than a backyard barbeque on Independence Day. She picks one strong color, in this case navy, for her skater style dress. She uses subtle silver metallic hints in lieu of white and includes suggestions of red in her lipstick and clutch bag.

What cuter way to rock your Forth of July celebration than the perfect pair of shortalls?
