America is Beautiful, and I am too

Independence Day. For most Americans it's a day that means remembering history, hot dogs, parades, fireworks, and seeing just how much you can look like an American flag while still feeling cute. Red white and blue are most definitely the colors of the day, and since it's summer crop tops and sun dresses are the go-to options, so here's how I decided to show off my American pride and sense of style.

The Look

Using a red scarf and a blue skater skirt I pulled together a perfectly patriotic dress, leaving my bra straps out for a pop of color. Although it's not really visible, I added an american flag bandanna to pull my hair back. 

It's comfortable and cute, the perfect dress to just bounce around and enjoy the festivities. And the best part is that it stays out of the way, so that you can focus on the people who matter. By the end of the day it didn't matter what I was wearing, I was just happy to be with a great group of people.

Most importantly I didn't feel insecure or like I was overdoing it at all in this outfit (which is a pretty big accomplishment for me, I always feel like I'm trying too hard).

No matter what you're celebrating, no matter what you're wearing, and no matter who you're with, make sure you celebrate like an icon.

Always be an Icon,

Try it again?

If I wanted to add to this look I might try a black hat and a white backpack. It was a little drizzly for me in the morning, so a patriotic umbrella wouldn't have been a bad idea either.
