Three Cheers for Red,
White and You
Hip hip hooray for Independence Day. Summer is in full swing, and we are busy filling our Fourth of July calendar with celebratory events. Are you ready? Take the liberty of rocking stripes, solids, and stars in vibrant red, white, and blue with these looks for all ages. Now let the fireworks begin.
Nothing makes a bigger splash at a cocktail party or garden soiree than a fiery red dress. Steal the scene in the Deneese Dress ($245) from Ted Baker. Also available in navy.
Heading to a casual outdoor barbecue? You'll land right on theme for the festivities in this crisp cotton Star Embroidered Striped Shirt ($78) from Madewell.
Your guy can wave his flag in the Pacific Union Shirt ($248) from Robert Graham. Its whimsical print is reminiscent of fireworks — and a real conversation starter.
Stars and stripes rule at J.Crew. Pick up perfectly patriotic sandals. Dressed up or down, the Cora criss-cross slides ($69.50) will become your summer staple.
After a visit to Crewcuts, pint-sized flag wavers will be right in step at the parade — especially girls who are dressed in this flutter-sleeved striped dress ($45).
The flip-flop guy seeking to elevate his footwear style will love the red-and-blue Hamptons Sandal ($295) from Hugo Boss, which are also designed for ultimate comfort.
Complete any look with the Coach Dinky ($295), which can be worn three ways. An American classic in navy leather, it will become a legacy piece in your collection.
