Stars & Stripes

June 25, 2015

/ uncategorized

I love 4th of July. I think I truly just love any holiday with a color scheme. Christmas has Red + Green, NYE gets sparkles and sequins, Valentine’s Day has Pink and Fourth of July gets Red, White, & Blue. Nothing makes me happier than dressing for a theme. [Seriously, I live for theme parties, so theme holidays are like the lottery for me]. I found this white dress with sequin stars & knew it would be perfect for the 4th. I could pair it with pops of red and blue but being white I knew it would work for other occasions too.

When I first saw this dress on ASOS I almost didn’t even click on it. I thought ‘Yes that is PERFECT for the Fourth, but I’m going to fall in love and it’s going to be way over my budget and then I’ll end up thinking about it for days, blah blah blah.’ but I live life on the edge so I clicked on it anyways. I was shocked to see it was barely over $50! The sequin detailing is gorgeous, and the fabric is amazing quality I am still convinced someone at Asos left off a 1 or 2  from the price and will surely be fired any day now.  (Kidding! I don’t want anyone to ever be fired!) 

 I knew I could pair this dress with my Red Gladiators for the perfect 4th of July look (If you’re in the market for short gladiator sandal these are only $15 and come in 5 colors!). I was looking for the perfect place to take pictures of this dress and just happened to stumble upon this red & blue wall (& by stumble I mean drive around Chattanooga for 30 minutes). Seriously someone needs to paint an American Flag mural in this city! 

If you need a more casual 4th of July outfit, I totally understand. I am loving this chambray. I also love, love, love this dress or even pairing a cute scarf or hat with a white tee & denim shorts. 

Ps! BaubleBar is having a huge sale up 75% off the cutest pieces!! 

xo, Riley
