The little red dress






Today I'm teaming up with Ada at Elegance and Mommyhood and several other bloggers again. We are all wearing red dresses in support of women's heart disease month.

Stars and stripes for the Fourth- 3 ways

I thought it would be fun to create some looks featuring stars and stripes for the upcoming Fourth of July holiday. I'm sure festivities will be kicking off next weekend. So whether you're going to a back yard barbeque, day of play in the sun, or dinner out, here are three outfits to inspire your looks.

Red trousers




Trousers- JCP (sold out) ankle pant version
sweater- Loft (old)  option  option
shoes- Ann Klein similar
necklace- JCP  option
earrings- JCP  similar
eyes and cheeks TheBalm Hot Mama
 
It's the red trousers again. I love having these in my closet. I paired them with this bow sweater. Remember when graphic sweaters, particularly bow sweaters, were all the rage? They are still here and I'm still wearing mine. I think this would make a great holiday outfit.

Happy Fourth of July! As many of our freedoms come under attack, I pray that we take a moment to truly appreciate what freedom we do have and how we got here. I hope each of you has a happy and safe day.
 
I'm going to keep this short and sweet so I can get on with this last day off work. We are having a new refrigerator delivered as the old one makes a terrible noise and has cracked inside. We decided to take advantage of a sale and replace it before it completely dies. No new outfits for me, my sales shopping involved a refrigerator. Yay- life.

Hello long weekend! Do you have plans? We don't but that's okay. We don't really like large crowds and sometimes I like those long weekends with no plans. If I were going out, I'd probably wear something like this.
 
I knew these seersucker sailor shorts would make a perfect Fourth of July outfit, so I paired them with a blue top, white earrings, red sandals and a red clutch. This would be the perfect fireworks or backyard bar-b-que outfit. What will you be wearing this Fourth of July?

How do you wear stripes on stripes? With seersucker! It's the perfect tiny stripe base for any bolder stripe.
 
Something about Labor Day draws me to red, white and blue. Maybe it's because those colors, especially in stripes, will always say summer to me.
 
Are you looking forward to this weeked? Sales? travel? bar b ques? Or just relaxing with a day off? I'm looking  forward to all of it.

It took me seeing a similar combination on someone else for me to realize I could put these two pieces together. I've done lots of red, white, and black before, so I don't really know why this eluded me. I guess I should start thinking a little simpler when it comes to outfits.
 
Have a great weekend!
