One of my most favorite things about any holiday is dressing up. Any reason to shop and put together something to celebrate makes the day just a little more fun. Celebrate in style this Fourth of July without looking like you’ve wrapped yourself in an American flag. Check out a few cute festive items to get the wheels turning…

Cut off denim jean shorts with red, white and blue accents



These seem to be everywhere right now in many different versions and styles. How cute are they? Find this pair at Target for around $25.

Sueded Pyramid Stud Loafer



Walk the walk in these suede loafers from Charlotte Russe. Stylish and good all season long, these kicks will have everyone throwing compliments your way. $30

Fourth of July Billy Cropped Sweater



Sure it’s a little pricey ($198 retail at Wildfox), but this piece can be worn year round as a light pullover when the weather cools at night, or a cover up at the beach.

Festive Nails

Get your nails did, or do them yourself in red, white and blue colorways. It’s just another fun way to celebrate the day. Check out these video how-to’s on StyleBistro.com for 10 Patriotic Nail DIY for the Fourth of July.
