Independence Day Dress

June 29th, 2011

I put together the above easy, breezy beautiful little ensemble that would work perfectly for the upcoming 4th of July celebration. This dress can then be worn for practically anything by taking away the red and blue accessories. Wear it with a blazer and simple flats for work, or with a belt and sky-high heels for a summer night date! Here is how I would wear it after Independence Day. ♥

Top Outfit:

1. Super Sunglasses Basic Sunglasses

2. Soludos Barca Striped Flat Espadrilles

3. Joie Baylyn Dress

4. Kenneth Cole Half Moon Necklace

5. Kenneth Jay Lane Red and Gold Stud Bangle

Bottom Outfit:

1. Kate Spade NY Blocked Straw Hat

2. Joie Baylyn Dress

3. Jay King Yellow Quartz Necklace

4. Charles David Karel Wedge Sandal

    I love those wedge sandals by Charles David! I spotted them in Lucky magazine last month and haven’t been able to stop thinking about them.

    I love those espadrilles! I’m a total sucker for stripes and had been looking for a pair just like those for a while now. My wallet doesn’t like you at this moment, haha :-)

    I am loving your spin on the holiday dress with throwing yellow into the mix. So summer and so chic and somehow it still looks very American!
    Great inspiration.

    xo,

    Oo those wedge sandals in the after-the-fourth-of-July post are fabulous. You know I’m back in the UK on this day but I might dress accordingly, anyway, with a little red white and blue!

    Really like that yellow hat in the second look. Yellow is my favorite color for summer, possibly tied with coral.
