Are you all as bummed as I am about the US loss in the World Cup yesterday?  That’s why I’m so slow to post today  – okay, not really but it sounds better than just trying to check a bunch of stuff off my to-do list.

Even though Team USA lost, it’s not time to pack up your patriotic gear just yet. Fourth of July weekend is full of bbq’s, get togethers with friends, firework viewing and nights out.  For the first time in a couple years, we won’t be hanging poolside for the holiday weekend so I’m mining my closet for red, white and blue to wear while we spend the weekend in New York. We’re heading up there for the long weekend to celebrate a friend’s wedding (can’t wait) but get the added bonus of seeing the Statue of Liberty and a few fireworks on the fourth.

I, for one, love a good red, white and blue ensemble. I’ll even throw in some flag gear from time to time. But if  sporting the stars and stripes aren’t really your thing, it’s super easy to get in the spirit with stuff already in your closet. Image: Happily Grey
