Independence Holiday Weekend


Hello, and thanks for stopping by my blog, today
I hope everyone is enjoying a great Independence Day celebration this weekend! 

I thought this would be the perfect time to feature a few holiday outfits,  
 so here are two looks in festive summertime red, white and blue
for the patriotic celebration!

My first outfit is an allover red strawberry print dress with a bright aqua blue background 
Layering a cropped crochet vest, featuring an embroidered hibiscus pattern over the dress
I also wore this dress on it's own back in May, for a post about fruit prints
Today, a fruit and flower print mix! 🍓🌺     
 



For jewelry, I chose some bright gold tone pieces
Three-D stylized flower shaped earrings, a chain link collar necklace,
and a blue enamel bow bracelet
If the bracelet looks familiar, I also have it in plain gold tone and wear it a lot


Carrying a white fold over bag with detachable strap


For shoes to finish the look, Mary Jane sling backs 
The gingham fabric is a pattern that just says summer,
especially in this tan and white color combination 



Here is another outfit for the Independence Day weekend  
I don't often wear this red and white striped top
with it's cute navy blue bicycle graphic print    
I seem to save it, because it is so perfect for the patriotic summer holidays!
Worn here with a white linen blend button front midi skirt
The roomy pockets give it a gold star 🌟 



Carrying my red draw cord bag
With this outfit, it is reminiscent of a picnic lunch bag


For jewelry, white enamel 3-D petal flower earrings
with a shiny silver tone bar bracelet
(Ignore the red krinkle hairband, I decided not to wear it today,
as there is a lot of red in this outfit already!)


Fun summer shoes-red and white striped espadrilles 
with red lace up ribbons


Hope everyone has a sparkling holiday and good week to come!

That bicycle top and the cute little red pouch bag are so cute. I can see wearing that top with many things!

I absolutely love both of these looks! Your layering is perfection in the first outfit. They go together so well! And your top in the second outfit is darling. Hope you had a great 4th of July!

Love the print mixes here - fruit + flower and stripes + bikes! That strawberry dress awes me every time...the color combo, print, cut, everything works so well.

The first outfit is such fun layering but the second is my favourite - you can't beat stripes and red and white always look so lovely together! :)
