Flashback Summer:  For the Red, White, and Blue

Continuing the theme started Monday, I've got another patriotic outfit for you guys!

I really love this one.  It's super comfortable, practical, and still cute.  Plus, with red, white and blue it can be patriotic for a number of countries!  The UK, France, Australia; it still applies for you peeps in other places. :)

The only thing that could make it better would be a little patriotic brooch.  Any of these would do:

  1. I saw those shoes at Target and only wished I could fit into kids' shoes!

    1. You might be able to! My mom wears a US size 8, and she bought the kid's size 6 and they fit perfectly!

    2. Thanks for the tip on the shoe sizes! The store had nothing near my size, but I've ordered a pair in size 5.

  4. Simply marvelous 4th of July ensemble - I so wish I could find high waisted vintage or repro trousers that looked a fraction that good on me. This is a really fun, classic, wonderful outfit, dear gal - you look terrific!

    1. They were actually some size L trousers from Forever 21. I found them in a flea market, so I'm assuming they're not new at all. I simply brought in the waist a bit and shortened them, and they work great! And they were only about $8!
