10 Fourth of July Outfits That Are Easy But Festive
It might feel a tad irrelevant to talk about July 4 celebrations given that this year's Independence Day arrives at a time when many of us aren't feeling quite as patriotic about our country. The growing civil rights movement has shed a light on the many racial inequalities that still plague our country today, so it's important to acknowledge the work that still needs to be done before we can truly celebrate our freedom. (Take a look at our handy guide on anti-racist actions you can take.)

Take your favorite statement top (we're fans of puffy sleeves), and pair it with crisp white jeans for a winning summer 'fit that works for the holiday and beyond.Nothing is more iconic for summertime festivities than a classic white dress. This summer, it's all about smocked details and flowy silhouettes.While wearing red, white, and blue can come off a tad cliché, the combination of red and white feels festive in a way that's more classic. We love the look of a red sundress punctuated by bright white sunglasses. (You could also pair it with white sandals or a white bag.)Although dubbed the Canadian tuxedo, a double-denim outfit can also be a nod to this American holiday.

Don't ask me why, but the combo just works.An all-white outfit sounds simple enough in theory, but it actually brings a lot of personality.

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?).

As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
