I can’t believe how fast this summer is flying. I feel like I’m going to blink and July is going to be here! And that means it’s time to start planning for 4th of July concerts, cookouts, pool parties, and celebrations with family and friends. A big part of my 4th of July planning is picking out an outfit. I love getting decked out in red, white, and blue. I’m so proud to be an American, and love to wear an extra-special outfit to celebrate the day.
Here’s a roundup of some of the cutest 4th of July-inspired pieces from my favorite stores. I hope you like them as much as I do. Now for the hard part of picking which ones to buy and wear!
1. LOFT mixed media maxi dress
2. J.Crew sleeveless embroidered sunburst dress
4. Nordstrom painted flag v-neck tee
9. Target cage back blouson dress
10. TOMS freetown star canvas slip-ons
13. J.Crew Factory drapey sleeveless top
14. Anthropologie safra shorts
15. LOFT border stripe midi skirt
16. Nordstrom 4th of July head wrap
Heads up! Are you noticing something different when you click these clothing links? I recently found out about ShopAtHome.com. It’s a site that gives you cash back on the purchases you make from your favorite stores. So for instance if you sign up for a free account, click my J.Crew sleeveless embroidered sunburst dress link, and then make a purchase on the J.Crew website you’ll earn 6% cash back on your entire order! ShopAtHome.com keeps track of how much you’re earning at every site (each site offers a different cash back percentage) and mails you a check each time you earn $20. It’s pretty awesome to save money just by clicking through a site when shopping! I’ll be writing a whole post dedicated to ShopAtHome.com later this month!
In the meantime try out this feature and let me know what you think. Is it helpful? Is it annoying? Do you have questions? I’m all ears!

Linz @ Itz Linz says

Erin says
It somehow makes the day even more fun!
Stacie @ SimplySouthernStacie says
I need to get on my 4th outfit! I already have a patriotic shirt picked out for the day before, but for the actual 4th I’m still blanking! I love that head wrap though!
Erin says
I so want to rock a headwrap! I’m just nervous it will look bad on my head! haha
Taylor says
I love that J.Crew dress!! I use a program called Ebates that does the same sort of thing as shopathome. I love it! You even get a 10 dollar giftcard somewhere like target or walmart just for signing up and making your first purchase!

Yes! I love eBates too! From what I read they’re the two biggest competitors in the cash back rewards industry.
Kelly @ Laughter, Strength, and Food says
I may purchase all of these items! Seriously, though, I love the Old Navy flag scarf and the Nordstrom head wrap! They are both so adorable!
Erin says
I’m obsessed with the head wrap! I’ve never had one before but really want this one!
Leslee @ Her Happy Balance says
I definitely like to try and dress with a patriotic flare on the 4th of July – it depends on what my plans are. I tried on a GAP red Tee with white stars but wasn’t overly impressed. I’ll have to keep looking for something cute. We have similar taste in clothes and favorite stores so I’ll have to look into some of your suggestions!
Erin says
I’m sure you’ll find something super cute! 😀

Erin says
I love that flag scarf! Old Navy is the first place I went when looking for 4th of July themed outfits! 😀
Jamie says
I totally rock the RW&B theme for all holidays (Memorial Day, Flag Day, July 4th, Labor Day…) I love nothing more than a good festive outfit! I have a long blue maxi dress which is an easy go to, and I did splurge on an american flag scarf. I will say those, the TOMS shoes are absolutely adorable and I may need to invest : )
Erin says
I love Toms so much! I had no idea they had red, white, and blue ones!
karyl henry says
Love the scarf and headband! It’s always WAY too hot to wear the scarf, but that would also be really cute for memorial day. And the lips tank from Target? Thinking that is will be my official 4th of July tank this year 🙂
Erin says
I love that tank top! So fun, cute, and affordable!
Kelly @ The OK Momma says

I love number 2 and number 9!! 🙂 For the site shopathome, does it work for amazon too???

Unfortunately shopathome doesn’t work with Amazon. Amazon kind of likes to do its own thing! haha
