Showing your flag colors and getting all stars&stripes may be easier and more fashionable than you think! Do it or over-do-it, here’s a simple plan you can follow year after year for casual or dressy occasions to help you celebrate a stylish 4th of July (or any other National Day)!
1. Wear the Flag!
While that may seem a bit too cliché for some fashionistas, it’s really old-school charming and by far the most effective look for the occasion! Choose a print or a t-shirt, shirt or skirt, pair it with something neutral or every-day use (like jeans shorts or a simple tank top)!

2. Wear the Colors!
Blue, red and white can come in a variety of look options (and apply to a handful of national flags too). It’s really easy and catchy and works in many combos – red skirt/pants/shorts or red top/jacket with a white or blue top, throw it together and you get a cool national colors look that you can wear in a multitude of other occasions too!

3. Wear Stripes or Stars!
Stripes are so fashionable, really a timeless chic option you definitely must have in your wardrobe! You can concoct an all-striped mix or a cocktail or stars and stripes and they’ll look costumey and girly fun. It’s also a safe way to recycle the look, especially for nautical-themed outfits you can wear throughout the warm season!

4. Wear the Flag on your Head!
Sounds a bit strange, but when you think of it, it’s actually the cutest way to go National and festive at the same time. There’s no age limit for that one and you can coordinate and have as much fun with headgear as possible! (National themed accessories are a go too – belts, scarves, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, anything goes as long as you wear it in fun way!)
