"When you think of Fourth of July outfits, images of bold red American flag bikinis and an Instagram feed full of people holding sparklers probably surface. The Fourth isn’t exactly known for being the chicest of holidays—but we’re here to tell you once and for all that your Fourth of July look can be festive and cute, and you can actually look forward to a non-cheesy red, white, and blue outfit.
If you’ve found yourself panic-googling “cheap Mother’s Day gifts” at the eleventh hour, CVS has a lineup of under-$25 gifts that are thoughtful, cute, and look way more expensive than they actually are.
Whether you’re heading up to the lake or hanging out with friends in the city for the upcoming holiday weekend, we’ve got your attire covered. From dresses in subtly patriotic hues to bathing suits that feel festive but have no star prints in sight, we’ve found a piece for you that you’ll wear way beyond Independence Day.
Grab your hotdog off the grill and settle into your long weekend in style.
4th of July Outfits You Can Wear All Summer Long
Tops and tees
Wearing a red, white, or blue top is a simple way to stay festive during the holiday without feeling too over the top. A red top and denim shorts? You’ll look festive without even trying.
8 colors available
Plus-size options available
Dresses
After your bathing suit, a dress is probably the easiest thing you can wear on the Fourth of July. You don’t have to worry about overheating in something so breezy, and you can throw it on over your swimsuit once the sun goes down.
Swim
If you’re going to be in your swimsuit for most of the day, have a little fun with it and opt for one in red or blue. A red bikini is always going to be in style, so you can also wear it to your next backyard BBQ or beach day.
Accessories
Don’t feel like decking out in head-to-toe red, white, and blue? Opt for some casual accessories in one of the hues. (We’re partial to a chic pop of red.)
