Dress Fashion Fourth-ward this 4th | LifeStyle

Over here at SLH, we’re pretty excited for the Fourth of July holiday! While we may have to wait until next year to see our local fireworks and parades once more, we’ve still got plenty to celebrate. As many states and counties move into Phase 2 (wearing masks, social distancing, active hand washing, etc), we are starting to see small gatherings return.

So what’s on your calendar for celebration this year? Maybe it’s a backyard BBQ, or a social distance picnic, or some social bubble happy houring. Whatever your event, why not show off some patriotic flair to go with it? Here at SLH, we’ve got you covered, with some great outfits that’ll have you saying “Happy 4th!” in no time.

FUN WITH FIREWORKS (SORT OF)

Okay, so maybe it’s mostly just sparklers and glow sticks this year. Or maybe you’ve hopped on the latest trend of “virtual fireworks” parties, where groups set up an outdoor movie screen and project firework videos from Youtube after dark. Either way, consider dressing yourself cozy with some wide legged jeans and a light sweater, so you can party on in the great outdoors. And if you are meeting up with others in a group, don’t forget the mask and a good-size backpack (for stashing your snacks and hand sanitizers).

STAR SPANGLED COCKTAILS

We saved our favorite for last, because after all the SIP we’ve been doing, who isn’t looking forward to putting on something stylish and a bit more upscale than, say, those yoga pants we’ve been rocking since March? Yup, we’re so excited to show things off, we couldn’t decide between red, white or blue…so here’s to the RED…
