Hi Lovelies! Happy Labor Day! This weekend marks the unofficial end of the summer (tear). To celebrate the holiday weekend, I decided to go out with a patriotic bang. Here’s my red, white, and blue lookbook for some holiday weekend-wear inspiration ideas for whatever you may find yourself doing this weekend!
Look 1: Holiday Weekend Dinner Date
This blue and red polka dot romper with an ultra-feminine bow is perfect for a holiday weekend dinner date with your sweetie. Add some extra omph to the look with matte red lips and beachy waves. And don’t forget the white clutch!

Look 2: City Night Out
If you’re city-bound this weekend, it’s still possible to rock the red, white, and blue theme while still looking chic. I paired this chambray tank with a white trumpet skirt and topped it off with red cage heels. And of course, what says city better then a topknot?

Look 3: Summer Concert/Festival
For a weekend activity that calls for a lot of walking (like a concert or festival), I reach for something that is casual and comfortable. These sparkly shorts are a definite stand-out piece, so I like to pair them with a boho lace crop top to keep the look from going too glam. Finish the look with a crossbody bag for a hands-free day and you’re ready to go!

Look 4: Labor Day Picnic
For an outdoor summer picnic (or barbecue), why not go girlie with an A-line eyelet skirt paired witha patriotic crop top? You may not have a flag halter laying around (I’m not sure why I do), but you can still do the crop top/girlie skirt combination. Just pick some patriotic colors and finish the look with comfy espadrilles!

Look 5: Beach Weekend Dinner
For a casual beach dinner, I like a more muted version of the red, white, and blue theme: maroon, tan, and navy. I paired a loose fitting, one-shouldered top with high-waisted shorts and my trusty cork wedges. I finished the look with this super-cute (weekend-appropriate) lobster necklace. Perfect for the beach and holiday, no?
Have a great weekend Lovelies!
