Can you believe that summer is about halfway over? Yup, I’m definitely in denial right about now! But I’m super excited to share some fun 4th of July outfit ideas with you today!

To be honest, I’ve been feeling a little under the weather recently, so I’m not 100% sure if I’ll even make it to the barbecue that we’ve been invited to tomorrow. However, if I can bounce back from this mystery illness, these are some 4th of July outfit ideas I’m thinking of trying for tomorrow’s festivities! The best part about these looks? You could likely recreate one of these 4th of July outfit ideas from pieces that are already in your closet. Plus, these are also pieces that you’d be able to wear all summer long!

I picked up a couple of new sweaters this summer because, admittedly, I’m always that girl who is always too cold when sitting indoors with AC.  Seriously, I pile blankets on myself when I’m sitting on the couch year-round! My current favorite is this adorable little star sweater from Splendid that I plan on wearing to the movies tonight. But, it would also be perfect if you’re headed to a cooler destination or spending a night on the beach!

We’ve been invited to a pool party for the 4th, and this one-piece from Aerie is hands down my favorite new swimsuit of the summer. Just wait until you see the back of it! It’s incredibly flattering and comfortable; yet appropriate for family gatherings.

This romper has been on repeat lately — it’s low in stock, but you can also rent it on Rent the Runway if you want to give it a try! I’ve gotten so many compliments on this jumpsuit as well, and it’s under $35. 

Also, a quick note RE: my posting schedule: it’s been a little inconsistent this month, but I’m going to get back on track for the second half of July. You can expect new blog posts to push out on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, and for a new newsletter to drop on Fridays. Since tomorrow is a holiday, there will be no new blog post. So I wanted to keep you all in the loop!
