Memorial Day Holiday

 Hello, welcome and thank you for stopping by my blog today!

This upcoming weekend in the United States, 
we celebrate the federal holiday, Memorial Day
 It is a time to remember US military personnel   
 who lost their lives while serving in the armed forces
It is also the unofficial first day of summer
In honor of the holiday I dressed
 and our country's colors, red white and blue



It is not difficult for me to find a lot to choose from 
in these colors, with my love of the energizing color red!
Are you a fan of wearing red? 

For this long holiday weekend
I chose a white short sleeve topper over a red knit top,
paired with a flared red skirt
 The skirt is a ditsy print of white hearts


Here is the cute print, it is difficult to see in the photo



For a bag, nothing else would do for the holiday
 except this navy and white striped clutch


For accessories, I chose a whimsical apple and worm
 wrap bracelet by Betsy Johnson
 Her brand's jewelry is so much fun!
 Also wearing a gold chain necklace
 and my big gold heart stud earrings
 


Shiny white patent leather
 fisherman style T-strap kitten heels
 to finish this holiday outfit


I'll be back next week with another outfit to share, 
and another item from my spring and summer closet purge

Hope everyone has a fantastic celebratory
 week and weekend to follow!

You’ve captured the spirit of Memorial Day so beautifully, both in honoring the day and with your classic red, white, and blue look. That heart print skirt is such a sweet touch—love how you paired it with the whimsical bracelet. Your outfit feels both respectful and cheerful, just right for the occasion. Hope you had a great weekend.
