If a picnic is on the agenda, try a red-and-white striped dress that has a little flair like a cutout under the bustline. Accessorize with cute white bag and shoes.

Is there anything more Americana than denim? Update your go-to style with a new shape—think a casual romper or jumpsuit.

If you’re not so keen on going full-on red, white, and blue, look to key pieces like a white boyfriend shirt, favorite jeans and a great pair of red shoes to give your outfit a subtle pop of color. Even better, they still work once the holiday weekend has come and gone.
