an effortless way to style patriotic blooms
A low acrylic vase makes styling simple. Red, white, and blue blooms stay spaced and balanced, thanks to individual openings in the vase. It’s an easy way to create something that looks thoughtful without trying too hard.
classic hydrangeas with a festive flair
Next to the arrangement, I added a bigger white vase filled with blue and white hydrangeas. A red-striped grosgrain ribbon tied at the neck and a small flag complete the look. It’s subtle, but it adds heart.
porch styling with a patriotic twist
Your front door sets the tone for your whole home. This year, I gave ours a quick patriotic refresh using all Amazon finds. I filled the planters with vibrant faux red florals and soft lavender stems for a pop of color. A flag doormat layered over a red plaid rug added instant charm, and I topped it all off with a brand-new wreath, complete with a patriotic ribbon. Just a few easy updates made the whole entryway feel festive and inviting.
a star-spangled snack moment

This board might be my favorite detail. A USA-shaped tray from Amazon, filled with colorful layers of crackers, cheese, meats, and fresh fruit. It’s festive, eye-catching, and comes together in minutes. Perfect for adding a playful yet elegant touch to any Fourth of July gathering.
fourth of july fashion favorites
Nothing says summer like a blue gingham maxi. Fitted at the top and breezy through the skirt, it’s one of those dresses that feels as good as it looks. I’ve been pairing it with clear-strap wedges and a woven bag for an easy, pulled-together aesthetic that still feels relaxed.
This blue-and-white striped dress has become a go-to. It’s light, airy, and the tie straps add a sweet little touch. I’ve been styling it with neutral wedges and a rattan clutch for that effortless, coastal feel that works for everything from brunch to backyard hangs.
bold but playful

For a look that stands out but still feels easy, I’m loving the mix of a sleeveless denim vest with wide-leg red-striped pants. It’s bold in the best way; fun and confident. I added chunky heels to elevate the outfit and give it that polished, fashion-forward feel without feeling overdone.
red, white & chambray
Chambray shorts are one of my summer staples, and I love how versatile they are, especially for the fourth. For something a little more feminine, I’m pairing them with a red eyelet blouse (bonus points for puff sleeves) and neutral wedges for a festive, pulled-together look that still feels easy. On the more casual side, I’m also styling those same shorts with a white hoodie featuring subtle flag details and white sneakers. It’s the perfect mix of classic and comfortable.
