July 4th Ready

“Land of the Free because of the Brave.”

Lovers + Friends Dream Vacay Dress  / Sam Edelman ‘Yardley’ Pump / Bourbon & Bowetie Bangles

Picnic Basket (similar)

July 4th! It’s such a wonderful time of fun and relaxation with family, fun and cookouts! Before I leave to go on vacation, I wanted to get this amazing Lovers + Friends Dream Vacay Dress up and still in time for the big holiday with free next day shipping here!  This dress is so adorable! I feel so feminine in this loose off the shoulder top that drapes and does not restrict your arms.  The color is so calm and all I can think of is an old movie and wearing this dress on a hot summer day to the market.  The top is so fun and flouncy and I just can’t get enough! I did purchase a size small and I am a size 4/6 and it fits perfect, I may could have gone up a size, but the small does not bind so I am keeping that size 🙂  

These Sam Edelman ‘Yardley” pumps have been out of stock for weeks and finally have been fully restocked in every size here!  I have been trying to find a replacement shoe because of the social media overload on these, but I am at a loss right now.  I also paired this look with two neutral bourbon and bowetie bangles I have linked here and here!

In this photo I decided not to use a purse, but I swapped it with a picnic basket! Years ago, when I got married my mother gave me this  wooden picnic basket and for years I would just stare at in in my pantry and wonder if I would ever actually go on a “romantic” picnic?!?! Well, I have not actually made it on my dream picnic, but it did come in mighty handy in this July 4th inspired shot 🙂  I have linked a beautiful picnic basket here.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend wherever you travels may take you! Don’t forget to check out my Summer’s Hot List Tab and my July 4th Shop Tab for some summer outfit inspiration.  Happy Thursday!!!
