What to Wear for the Fourth of July

The Fourth of July has always been one of my favorite holidays; beyond celebrating our country, the celebration feels like the height of summer. Past years’ celebrations have included barbecues, tennis matches, fireworks at our club, beach days, and cocktail parties. As I’ve written before, I love coordinating with my friends on what to wear, and holidays are no exception.

Here are my wardrobe selections for everything that might be on your agenda this upcoming holiday weekend!
