5 Outfits That’ll Make You the Best-Dressed Guest This Fourth of July

5 Outfits That’ll Make You the Best-Dressed Guest This Fourth of July

If you’re looking to put together a chic Fourth of July outfit, skip the star-spangled shirts and embrace the spirit of summer with a wink of patriotism. Think: a pop of red here or there and undeniably cool stripes. Whether you’re heading to a backyard BBQ or a fancy rooftop fireworks show, taking a less-is-more approach ensures your look is a sartorial success.

To help you plan the finishing touches, we’ve gathered some of our favorite celebrity-approved outfits, from Laura Harrier’s elegant take on matching sets to Emily Ratajkowski’s borrowed-from-the-boys ensemble. You’ll find something for every mood and moment, ahead.

Never underestimate the power of neutrals. A simple top paired with a coordinating skirt can easily look like a work of art with fun accessories. Follow Harrier’s lead with ankle-wrapping sandals and a standout straw bag.

Fourth of July or not, red accent pieces are a must in any wardrobe. Here, Naomi Watts highlights the raspberry print in her Khaite dress with a Métier tote bag and tall Gianvito Rossi heels. If you’re after something a bit more practical, get the same look with easy-to-walk-in kitten heels.

Even in chill mode, you can still look chic. Ratajkowski shows us how it’s done in a pair of basketball shorts that are balanced with a sleek tube top and unexpected woven ballet flats.
