The fourth of July to me is all about getting up early to get to the parade, cooking out, and heading to the lake for fireworks with the family. Thankfully, this year my father was able to fly in from Puerto Rico which made the whole experience that much more special. Family time is always a great time especially on holidays as these. A dress can go a long way, first of all the print could not be more perfect for a July 4th on Lake Michigan, and the airy fabric kept me cool under the hot sun. Red heels add a festive vibe while enhancing the sailboats on the print. Keeping in mind it may be very bright out, these green mirrored aviators work as a statement pair of sunnies that also complement the print. Pearls and a shoulder bag add a retro ladylike vibe that I love.
