Comfy & Chic 4th of July Outfit Part I

The 4th of July is coming and you are going to want to look nice, but be comfy at the same time. This week we will be posting different looks that might help you solve the ever present question of "What should I wear?"

So, you have been invited to a nice pool party/cookout, you don't want to wear shorts but you don't want to be too dressy either, here is a nice alternative. Let's say you might want to go swimming too, but what will you wear? Well, a maxi dress will do the trick. It can double as a chic cover up or a nice dress. Here's what you can do:


City-style Sunglasses $16.95 NY&Co.

Burnished Silver Filigree Crescent Earring $5.00 Wet Seal


Smocked Jersey Maxi Dress $29.50 Old Navy

Beaded Keyhole Sandals $9.99 Old Navy

Dimpled Bangle Set $4.80 Forever XXI

Oversized Canvas Tote $29.99 Old Navy


Shiny Saucer Ring $39.50 Banana Republic

Makeup and hair suggestions for this look:

You want to have a nice natural look, but you will want to have some pizazz too. So I suggest that you go with a shimmery silver or gold eyeshadow on the top lid. These colors will help to open up a shallow lid or with careful blending, it can decrease a wide lid. They will also highlight the jewelry you are wearing, nicely. Also use a bold black eyeliner and mascara, mixed with a shimmery white eyeliner on top of black. This will make your eyes really pop. Next, you will want to use a pink lipstick with a light clear gloss to coat the lips. You will look really sexy and kissable. Now, you will probably be attending cookouts so you will want to have that sun-kissed complexion. Get a shimmery gloss and dab on concealer stick. Make sure that the concealers are one shade lighter and one shade darker than your skin color. Rub the concealer all around your face, neck and chest. Finally, take a press powder 1/2 shade lighter than your natural complexion and lightly dust your face, neck and chest to remove any traces of shine.

Simply catch your hair into a simple ponytail with no bang. Make sure that there are no stray hairs and it is extremely smooth.

Now you are ready for your outing. I guarantee you will be complemented!

Send us your pics! Tune in tomorrow for another 4th of July outfit suggestion.
