Stripe Midi Skirt + What To Wear For July 4th

*This post contains affiliate links.

Who's excited for the 4th of July?  Some of you may know (if you've been following for a while) that it's my favorite holiday (tied with Thanksgiving), and it's also the twins birthday!  They'll be turning four on Tuesday, and I still can't get over the fact that they'll be FOUR!  We'll be celebrating up at the lake, and I'm excited for a weekend filled with barbecues, boat rides, fireworks, and time with the family.

If you're wondering what to wear this 4th,  I'm sharing a little outfit inspiration for you today.  In my opinion, you can never go wrong with a stripe skirt, which also happens to be on my list of summer wardrobe essentials.  Not only are they classic, but I love how they can be styled for many occasions, including a day at the beach, to a night out on the town.

I added this stripe midi skirt to my wardrobe last summer, and it has definitely gotten its wear.  I found it at  Forever 21, and although it is no longer available, I found two similar options, here and here, which I'm actually liking more than my skirt!  I paired it with my eyelet, one shoulder top, then added a pop of red with statement earrings and a bold lip.  This look would make a perfect option for a 4th of July party or event, however, you can simply dress it down by switching out the heeled sandals for slides, or the lace top for a basic white tee or tank.  Since the lake is very casual, I plan on wearing this skirt with my bathing suit (because I'll be living in my swimsuit over the holiday), and I'll wear this eyelet top with my favorite denim cut-offs, and these white slides.  This top also comes in a poppy red color, which would be great for the holiday too, although sizes are limited.
