The 4th of July is still one of my favorite holidays. It's all about family fun and fireworks, usually at the lake. The last few years we've spent the holiday camping with my parents, which has been amazing.

You can show your patriotism without decking yourself out in full flag regalia. For the past several years, my typical July 4th style has been shorts and a patriotic t-shirt or tank top, and that's honestly probably what this year will look like as well. It's just too hot where we are to get too fancy.

This year's outfit inspiration post reflects that casual vibe a little more than previous years, I think, but you'll still find some dressier options. I rounded up some of my favorite affordable tops, dresses, shorts, and accessories from Amazon, Old Navy, and Cato. I stuck with red, white, and blue in a variety of rewearable prints, but I did include a few flag options that aren't overwhelming for those of you who are so inclined.
