#TheOnceUpon's Guide to Fourth of July Essentials

Happy (almost!) Fourth of July, everyone!

As we say goodbye to June and hello to July, we are getting ready for the pool parties and BBQs! And with Fourth of July coming up, we have curated a list of red, white and blue essentials in hopes to inspire you this summer!

Red

One way to get the red in your #ootd is incorporate it into your makeup look! Consider R2R Cosmetics’ multi-pot in Chromatic red, which can be used as eyeliner, eyeshadow, blush, or lipstick.

For a July 4th-inspired manicure, opt for No. 15, 16, or 17 from wellness-inspired nail brand sundays studio for a beautiful, non-toxic way to show your patriotism with a chic red.

If you want to wear red, lifestyle brand Maggie Wu Studio’s has a few options, including a silk midi skirt, a tee, and a slip dress in red. You can also add red to your hair with the silk scrunchie or the silk scarf from the latest summer capsule.

Alternatively, you can pick up the award-winning fashion label Jeff Wan’s Le Morne Lunchbox in Rouz for a pop of red.

White

For a head-to-toe all-white chic look, consider pairing the white Rachel Camisole top from SOTP, or sumoftheparts, with Donna Zhong’s Patch Pleats Skirt.

Match your nails to your look with sundays studio’s polish in No. 1 for the perfect white nails, and carry your essentials in the Jeff Wan’s Bazar Tote in Blan to complete the monochrome outfit.

Blue

To switch things up, opt for a blue nail polish from sundays studio! We recommend L. 03 for a lighter shade of blue and No. 38, 39, 40, or 41 for the more traditional, darker shades of blue.

You can also pair any outfit with Jeff Wan’s bags from the Spring 2019 collection, which features a wide selection of bags in a beautiful blue hue.

Whether you want to wear one color or mix it up this July 4th, we hope you found some inspiration from our list of favorites! Have a safe and happy 4th of July!

Xoxo,
