Go for the Gold
I’m officially counting down to the opening ceremony and dreaming of a festive ensemble to go with it. Try a striped dress, bold necklace, classic watch and a pair of sneakers. Tuck a few flag toothpicks in your purse for sudden displays of patriotism.

Stars & Stripes
I really wanted to wear that sequin anchor tank yesterday, but there was no way I was putting plastic sequins on in 100-degree heat. Aside from a bit of dehydration, the fourth was pretty fun: gave myself a wonderfully obnoxious manicure, went to a neighborhood picnic, hung out in the pool and enjoyed our third fireworks display of the year.

Color Crush: Red, White & Blue
Madison’s holiday weekend kicks off with a fireworks display on Saturday. (Note to self: buy sparklers.) Of course Independence Day is about more than a red, white and blue color scheme, but it is the perfect opportunity to wear such patriotic colors without having to disguise them as “nautical.”
