Festive Bohemian
Boho gals can be all-American too. We love this flowy, off-the-shoulder look for the Fourth. (Try Others Follow Cold Shoulder Dress, $44.99). Looking for a more patriotic touch? Add a red, white and blue braided headband.

Scroll through for 10 outfit ideas that are totally wearable, and click on the links throughout to recreate each look.
