A Big Red, White & Blue Edit

From seaside fireworks to backyard barbecues, nothing says “summer in full swing” quite like the timeless trio of red, white, and blue. But these pieces aren’t just just for the 4th of July—they’re polished separates and breezy dresses you’ll reach for long after the sparklers fade, whether you’re packing for a coastal getaway or brightening an ordinary Tuesday. Below, I’ve rounded up my favorite patriotic-inspired looks that blend effortless silhouettes with just-enough statement detail, so you can celebrate July 4th—and every sunny day that follows—in standout style.

I've worn this blue and white floral mini dress for a casual dockside dinner and a family barbecue in the last week. It's such a fun, easy option that looks great paired with a wrap sandal and wicker bag like this (just purchased!) or this. To dress it up for dinner I'd pair it with these gorgeous pale blue heels!
I got this red crochet dress for an upcoming trip and it's stunning. I love the asymmetric hemline, and that you can wear it with the slip as a dress, or without the slip as a pool cover-up.
All I need is this blue and white bikini (top here, bottoms here) and a big slice of watermelon on the beach. (One piece version here!)
This nautical cardigan is a great summer layer perfect for throwing over your swimsuit with these linen pants (only $56!), or pair with a tank top and my new favorite jeans (15% off the jeans with "Stacie15").
If you don't own a flag sweater yet, this is your sign. Is it weird to say I collect them? My favorites include this, this, and this!
A blue and white maxi dress that looks equally at home in Cape Cod or Capri!
If you're on the hunt for something more tailored, these tapered red linen trousers are casual yet elegant. (Also available in a chambray blue.) Pair with this asymmetric top and these flats.
This dress is just asking to be accessorized with a sparkler on July 4th!
I love the nautical rope-inspired embroidery on this shift dress. Would be so cute with this navy straw clutch!
I bought this red eyelet dress in Newport yesterday, and plan to wear it with this red crewneck sweater over my shoulders. (If temperatures dip the sweater looks good worn over the dress as well.)
This silk scarf is your secret weapon. Tie it around your waist, in your hair, or on your bag to add instant patriotic flair.
I wore this silk floral dress to lunch in Newport yesterday and it's an easy-to-wear favorite. I actually wore it over a red bikini (top here, bottoms here) because we were going to the beach after lunch, with this striped sweater over my shoulders.
Pairing a fun skirt with a tank swimsuit is one of my favorite summer outfit formulas. I just got this swimsuit and it deserves the hype—shapewear and a swimsuit in one! I got this Madras skirt to wear over it for days when I want to go straight from a swim to a lobster shack dinner.
If this red maxi dress is still available in your size, snag it!
These red, white and blue espadrilles will make any outfit feel festive. (Especially love a flat espadrille with white high-waisted shorts!)
Odds are you have a blue and white dress in your closet. Throw on these heels (on sale!) for an instantly festive look!
