I was sitting on the couch the other day with J and the cats, looking at my calendar and planning out my blog content for the next month… That’s when I realized that next month is July. JULY. It’s so hard for me to believe that we are already in the seventh month this year! It seriously feels like 2019 just started and now we are already more than halfway through the year. I think that just goes to show how fast time can fly when we’re so busy with work, school, life, etc. It definitely made me stop my planning for a second, take a look around at what I had in that moment — someone who loves me, my sweet kitty babies, my apartment I’ve gotten to decorate and make exactly like I wanted — and I felt incredibly lucky to have what I do and to be where I am.

Then, of course, my mind cut back to planning and racing about all of the things I wanted to write about for the blog and time quickly snapped me back. But it was still nice to take a moment and appreciate what is going on around me at that very moment. Now back to the fact that JULY is next week… As I thought of post ideas and wrote down what I wanted to write blog posts about, I figured I would want to share something for July 4th (I mean I always share a post for major holidays, it would only make sense, right?!) Since I already shared a post on Memorial Day over beach essentials that included a lot of red, white and blue paraphernalia that you could take on your beach day, I figured for the 4th of July, I would focus more on the fashion side of things and share my top picks for what to wear for the 4th.

Also, in case you missed it on my Instagram stories this past Friday, I did a try-on of some things I ordered for the 4th of July from Abercrombie and Fitch for the LTK Day Sale! Here are the pieces below!
Thanks for reading friends and I hope you find some great pieces to wear on the 4th! Xx.
Red Dress Boutique has some nice stuff. I don’t really wear a lot of red, so I have my eyes on the striped denim shorts and the make some time white dress.

I love their stuff, they sell really great quality clothing! I know girl, those denim shorts are soooo cute, I’m actually planning to buy them for myself too! 😉
Yes times does fly doesn’t it? And it is nice when people realize what they have and how lucky they are, so many people in the first world like to focus on their “problems” and whine. I can’t believe July 4th is next week. But love this look you put together!

Thank you so much girl! And I know, it’s crazy how fast this summer has flown by. It’s nice to stop every once and a while and take time to appreciate how blessed we really are. 🙂
I’m planning on spending the entire day at the beach for the 4th and CANNOT wait! Love this t-shirt dress, I need it in every color!

Red, white and cutie! Love this fun 4th of July look!
This look is so comfy and cute – perfect for a BBQ or friends get together!
I absolutely LOVE the outfit you’re wearing in these photos. Totally up my alley, keeping it cute and comfy and practical. I’ll be going to a rooftop bar, so I’ll probably need to opt for pants or shorts instead of a dress since there’s a breeze, but I love your suggestions as well!
I completely lost sight of July 4th this year in my blog planning .. needed this outfit inspo!

Such a cute look not only for the 4th but for a cute everyday look. I love that you turned it into a holiday outfit so easily!
You look great! I love to dress up for the 4th of July! I actually still need to figure out what I’m wearing. Dressing up in red, white, and blue is alway so festive and fun!
I love this dress doll! You look adorable 🙂
