What’s red, and white, and blue all over? You, on the Fourth of July, clad in a truly delightful, totally patriotic ensemble. You can almost smell the Instagram likes now. The only hiccup to bringing this idyllic vision to fruition? You hardly own any Fourth of July-worthy clothing. Your penchant for minimalism hasn’t exactly lent itself to a wardrobe full of stars, stripes and other flag-inspired garb. All-black-everything and red-white-and-blue aren’t a match made in sartorial heaven—far from it. What, oh what, is a gal to do??!

Run to the store, of course.

If you’ve been looking for some excuse—any excuse—to go shopping, we’ve just served one up on a silver platter. No Fourth of July is complete without a handful of envy-inducing Instagrams, and no envy-inducing Fourth of July Instagram is complete without a killer red-white-and-blue ensemble. (Or at least, like, a swimsuit that looks vaguely festive.)

And really, what better way is there to show your support for this country you call home than by stimulating its economy? There is no better way to celebrate America than to engage in some serious capitalism—even if that capitalism is merely taking the form of filling shopping bags with cute, patriotic clothing. (The two aren’t mutually exclusive—we promise.)
