It’s hard to believe the 4th of July is this coming weekend! The summer seems to be speeding by but then again, don’t we always feel like that? I think my summer feels particularly like its moving at the speed of light because of my travel schedule. I got in late last night from Nashville after having one of the best weekends ever with some of my girlfriends. (See more of my trip over on Instagram.)

And now this week I am heading to Delaware for the 4th of July so I’m excited for a short week and upcoming fireworks, bbq-ing and beach time. What are your plans? I’ll be re-wearing this red/white/blue outfit combo to properly celebrate in festive attire.

These Gap Lace-up Sandals and Eyelet Dress were such affordable buys and I’ve already worn the dress 3 times. I suggest sizing down as I am usually a size 6 and ended up exchanging this for a size 2 for a better fit. You can get both on sale until 3pm ET today! (Along with other Gap items – I’ve linked a bunch of their dresses I like at the bottom of this post!)

Also this jacket is now available again! It was sold out for a long time but I can’t stop wearing it. It’s only $88 and has the perfect slightly cropped fit and light distressing. It comes with me everywhere as the ideal layering piece.

I hope you have fun plans for the 4th and have a great start to your week!
