BOLDLY DRESSED IN AMERICANA
There’s something special about dressing in red, white, and blue….. especially in the summertime. Whether it’s for a backyard bbq, small-town parade, or a beachside getaway, showing off your patriotic side through fashion doesn’t have to feel cheesy or overdone. Sometimes I feel like it is, and that’s what I don’t like about it. With a few style tricks, you can get into the classic American colors in a chic and modern way.
I’ve linked five fabulous looks that capture the spirit of patriotic dressing without going full flag mode! I’ve got a DRESS, SKIRT, JEANS, SHORTS, and not to forget SWIM. These pieces work beautifully on their own or can be mixed and matched, depending on how bold you want to go.
Remember the accessories like sunnies, statement earrings, a fun hat, or a striped bag. These tiny tweaks in your style, DO make a difference. They can take your outfit from a 1 to a ten!

DENIM DAYS IN AMERICAN BLUES
STARS, STRIPES, AND SUMMER SHORTS
POOLSIDE PATRIOTISM
Whether you’re the type to wear star-spangled everything or prefer to show your spirit with some Americana classic stars and stripes, there’s a stylish way to celebrate. Even a navy swimsuit with a red bandana in your hair gives off a festive summer vibe that doesn’t come across like a costume.

Boldly dressed in Americana doesn’t have to be loud…. it seriously can be effortless, classic, and true to YOUR personal style. So go ahead and have some fun with the red, white, and blue theme. Keep it subtle or if you prefer, go all in. The most important thing is to wear it proudly! This all leads me to…… do you decorate your home in a patriotic theme? I used to be better. That’s all I have to say about that! LOL!!
Note: My look in the first picture was from about severn years ago. It was a sponsored trip with JJill. A great example of some subtle patriotism style!!
