How to style a neutral 4th of July outfit
Wondering how to style neutrals for 4th of July? Here are my best tips for styling a neutral outfit that’s still festive enough for July 4th!
Wear white
Did you know that white is the second most prominent color in the American flag? It’s a refreshing color that’s perfect for keeping you cool on a hot summer day. It also serves as a great neutral that allows your colorful accent pieces to really pop.
add a pop of red
Just because you’re wearing neutrals for 4th of July doesn’t mean you can’t add a hint of red to your look. For a pop of festive red, opt for a red lip color or an accessory like a scarf—these small accents pay homage to the holiday without overwhelming your neutral outfit.
Wear a neutral blue
By neutral blue, what I mean is blue tones like denim (yes, denim is considered a neutral base), navy, or chambray. You can even play with different denim washes from light to dark, and feel free to even mix two separate blue tones together in one look for a unique outfit combination!
Play with stripes
A subtle striped print is the perfect way to incorporate the festive American flag stripes we know and love into your neutral July 4th outfit. To avoid going overboard, I recommend choosing only 1 striped item for your look. Play with different colors and stripe thickness for a unique spin on the classic American stripes.
Add star accents
Incorporate stars into your neutral 4th of July outfit using accent pieces like earrings and bracelets, or an accessory with a subtle star print like a scarf or hairtie.
Keep the patriotics to a minimum
You can definitely still rock patriotic prints and messages for your cute 4th of July outfit, just keep these to a minimum or find pieces that have a more subtle approach for a classier look.
