Can you believe the 4th of July is almost here?! I’m not quite sure where the time has gone. To celebrate this patriotic season, why not invest in a fabulous red, white, or blue handbag! It will be the perfect way to complete your 4th of July look. Love that!

The top three bags in the photo set above are on my wish list. Aren’t they fabulous?! The white shoulder bag also comes in red, and it is absolutely stunning in person. That blue triangle bag is a cult favorite. Triangles are starting to emerge as an important shape in handbags; this is the one that put triangle bags on the map!

Red, white, and blue are handbag colors which are also being shown in the fall collections. Some of these bags are pre-fall, and even fall 2018! So, if you do invest in a red, white or blue handbag, it will have longevity. I’m loving white bags for the fall season. Of course, I’m a sucker for a red bag in the fall too; oh, and blue is my favorite color!

I’m loving backpacks. and shoulder bags which double as cross body bags, for the 4th of July. They are so easy to carry around while attending all the fun festivities on Independence Day!

Which patriotic handbag is your favorite? Are you a red, white or blue handbag fan? Which handbag style if your favorite to wear on the 4th of July?

Thanks for stopping by!

The 4th of July is almost here! This means we all need a fabulous outfit which not only shows how patriotic we are; it shows our fabulous style! After all, most people will cobble together a red tee with denim cut-offs; do you want to be most people? Of course not!

Pictured above are three fun, and patriotic, outfits which will make you stand out at any type of 4th of July party you attend.

I love the skirt and off-the-shoulder top for daytime parties. The white dress and espadrilles are perfect for a BBQ; the shoes won’t sink into the lawn! Love that! For an evening celebration, complete with fireworks, that striped dress is calling my name. Love them all!

The red shoes pictured with outfits two and three could easily be swapped out; depending on the event you are attending. Love that!
