Summertime is not the season to get too creative with style. Instead, it’s all about keeping it easy. Nothing is as casual and carefree as your wardrobe basics: jeans and a white top. However, incorporating an accessory, like this red and white striped headscarf, will ensure your outfit is also July Fourth appropriate.

Lean into the July Fourth color palette with this red, white, and blue number. With a floral lace dress shirt that's half-tucked into a pleated skirt, it's an elegant take on America's birthday celebration.

Bring the tropical vibes to the party with a beachy print top. Although you can opt for jeans or denim shorts, these dark green bottoms are neutral and unexpected. Finish off the look with trendy platform flip-flops.

Looking to make a statement with your Fourth of July outfit? Then reach for a red going-out top and star-spangled pants, like the ones seen here. It's bold, confident, and therefore, inherently American.

Summer whites are the easiest outfit formula to pull off when it’s hot. But to add some personality, consider a pop of color à la red footwear. The resulting look makes a strong case for wearing dresses with sneakers.

Stripes have long been a staple of Fourth of July dressing, but never have you seen them worn like this. This sequined striped romper reinvents a classic in a fresh and exciting way.

The traditional denim-on-denim look is classic Americana styling. But wearing head-to-toe denim in the summertime can get too hot to handle. Instead, swap the denim shirt for a light blue poplin button-down for a monochromatic take that still holds the heritage of the all-denim outfit. 

There's a reason (multiple, actually) that matching sets have become so popular in fashion: they work for almost any occasion, they're super easy to put together, and they can serve as separates too.

Baywatch's C.J. Parker made the red bodysuit an iconic piece of fashion history. And even if you’re not headed to a sandy beach, there’s still room to channel her look. Pair a red bodysuit with silver pants for an eye-catching outfit that works for both daytime gatherings and nighttime outings. 

Even though a denim-on-denim outfit is typically referred to as a "Canadian Tuxedo," there really is no textile more American. Denim lends itself to so many amazing garments, and this dress is no exception. It works as a stand-alone piece or as a cover-up for a bathing suit.

Picnics are a staple activity of the Fourth of July weekend. But even if you’re not headed to the park, you can bring the picnic vibes with you via a gingham dress or skirt. Keep accessories minimal to make the print pop as much as possible. 

Embrace America's DIY spirit by turning your scarf into a makeshift top. Then, pair it with red track pants for an upgraded and patriotic take on athleisure.

A controversial trend, capris are a match for hot summer weekends thanks to their mid-leg length and breezy silhouette. For Independence Day, a white pair with a red blazer will keep the holiday's festive flair alive.

A classic pair of white jeans is a staple you can grab in June and not let go until Labor Day rolls around. Consider doubling down on the neutral hue for a summery head-to-toe white ensemble. Although any white top will do, this mostly unbuttoned vest adds an element of edge and cool.

This blue-on-blue combo is only made better with a pop of red. While red shoes are a bold statement, a bag, like this mini top-handle, is a safer bet to add some contrast to your outfit.

Not all Fourth of July activities involve picnics or brunches. In fact, one of the most likely activities during the Day of Independence is spending time near a body of water. If that sounds like what you'll be doing, opt for a bathing suit top with boxer shorts—or denim cut-offs—to make your transition to swimwear seamless.

A festive pair of red shorts is a good staple to include in your Fourth of July weekend roster. Style them with a white basic, like a tank or tee, and neutral footwear, be it white sneakers or transparent sandals.

What better source of inspiration than the American flag for your Fourth of July outfit? Here, a model opts for a plain white tee to complement her statement pants. Meanwhile, the studded belt adds some rockstar edge and Y2K nostalgia.

With its mix of red, white, and blue colors, plus stripes, this layered look is patriotic fashion made modern. The choice of white Mary-Jane wedges as footwear ties this eclectic look together.

Ever wondered what quiet luxury would look like on the Fourth? This is it. A black top with star cut-outs creates interest and texture to complement beige wide-leg trousers. It's understated but still on theme.
