From backyard barbecues to watching the fireworks under the stars, July 4th is a day when we celebrate the United States' independence with flair. This year, let's make a stylish statement that matches our patriotic spirit. Whether you're planning a laid-back barbecue, a sun-soaked day by the lake, or a sparkling fireworks show, we've got your and your tween's style guide ready at The Mint Julep Boutique.
Backyard BBQ: Comfort Meets Style
For a backyard BBQ, the key is to balance comfort with style. Opt for a breezy sundress or a basic top and comfy shorts in patriotic shades. Trendy summer dresses will keep you nice and cool offering a breezy fit. Pair these dresses with a comfy pair of sandals to keep things on the casual side. A comfy graphic or basic tee paired with your favorite shorts is always a solid choice. We know the summer heat can be a bit much but this classic combo can help you to try and beat it.
A Day on the Lake: Nautical Notes
Planning a July 4th celebration on the lake with the family? A chic, nautical-themed outfit will make you and your girl stand out. You could try choosing something in white and/or navy hues or even with a striped print or rickrack detailing. You could also look into finding a cute swimmy with a patriotic vibe! No matter what color combo you choose, we highly suggest making sure you and your tween are at peak comfort levels! There’s nothing worse than feeling restricted or confined in the heat of the day!
Beach or Pool Day: Sun-Soaked Attire
Maybe you’re planning to spend the day at the beach or by the pool, or maybe back and forth between the two! Either way, you are going to want to wear something patriotic of course but also flowy and comfy! A flowy kimono or an oversized button down and a pair of shorts make for a fabulous swimmy cover-up! Light dresses also make for an easy swimsuit cover-up as well. These will take you from the beach to a beach side restaurant in no time!
Fireworks Show: Sparkling Style
As the night falls and the sky lights up with fireworks, make sure both your outfits are just as dazzling! We think something with sequins, glitter, or rhinestones would be perfect! All those bright lights will truly shine on these types of embellishments! However we understand not everyone is a glitter gal! In that case, choose something in red, white, or blue that you feel comfortable and confident in!
