The Fourth of July is approaching, and what better way to celebrate the holiday than with fashionable pieces to show your Americana pride? When I was younger, my mom would often buy me a shirt reading “Happy 4th of July!” in red, white and blue writing from Target or Old Navy every year, but it was only appropriate to wear the shirt on that day. I wouldn’t even think about wearing it in public on any other day, so for me, it was like buying a dress for New Year’s Eve that would be only worn once.
Since I’m all about recycling clothes, I’ve found ten cool, comfy and cheap essentials to make your 4th of July outfit set off fireworks, whether you’re heading to a BBQ or on the town. Plus, these items can be worn after the holiday mixed with other pieces in your wardrobe to create completely new outfits. Celebrate the Fourth of July with a patriotic palette or red, white and blue pieces. Happy Fourth!
