The Ultimate A-to-Z Shopping Guide to the Fourth of July Weekend

4th of july

It’s only a matter of days left until the Fourth of July holiday kicks off—that long, freewheeling weekend of fireworks and all-American fun. It’s also a seasonal marker, a sign that summer is at last in full swing. Now is the time to get your vacation style game in gear, and by smartly prepping for the Fourth, you’ll find yourself set for the next two months, whether your plans take you to a sun-drenched beach or once around the block. Here, we’ve got you covered, quite literally, from A to Z.

A is for American Flag, of course, drawn onto a Solid & Striped maillot or Marc Jacobs cutoff mini that oozes Americana, while Espadrilles evoke clean air and sun through sleek Castañer slides, bound with jute rope. Nothing says summer better than Beach Waves, tousled and streaked by Captain Blankenship’s gold-flecked salt spray, though a bottle of Sisley’s Floral Face Mist keeps skin fresh and cool, and a glass flacon of Coqui Coqui’s citronella and geranium–scented Mosquito Repellant is equally crucial—toss them all in a twee Raffia Tote, either Miu Miu’s periwinkle bucket or Frances Valentine’s Jane Birkin–esque basket, to hang loosely across either shoulder. Speaking of shoulders, keep yours exposed with an Off-the-Shoulder Top like Dolce & Gabbana’s cheeky lemon-printed bandeau or Caroline Constas’s ruffled and buttoned white blouse, paired with Sandy Liang high-waisted Gingham Shorts and a slick of Christian Louboutin’s Waterproof Loubilaque crimson lacquer. Top it all off with a glass of (Yes Way) rosé, and voilà. You’re ready to own the Fourth of July weekend—and all summer weekends to come.
