11 Accessories For The Fourth Of July That'll Look Patriotic Without Being Cheesy
The Fourth of July is one of the best, most laid back holidays of the year, but I will say that when it comes to dressing up for this special day, it's easy to go overboard. Of course, there's nothing wrong with covering yourself in red, white, and blue, but unless you're marching in a city parade, you probably want to keep the stars and stripes tasteful and stylish. If you're looking to add small touches of patriotism to your ensemble, consider these 10 accessories that are great for the Fourth of July.
