Keepin’ It Simple, America
Somewhere in the back of their closet, people have stashed their ridiculous holiday fashion complete with giant stars splashed all over. They come out only on holidays like Independence and Memorial Days. It’s not always pretty.
In D.C., stripes remain a staple and we’re happy to report many wore them well on the National Mall for the Fourth. Here are some of our favorites who somehow looked fly in the heat & humidity. And the headband? Yes!

I was particularly impressed with some of the gentlemen, who could show off their tans with confidence. If you’ve got the body, why not rock it like the Washington Monument?!
Stripes, and yes, a belly ring. (Ko Im/DC on Heels)
I am personally not a fan of long blue jeans – but jean shorts are the bomb. Love how this chica paired it with a clean, white peplum.

Good job, America. Hope you had a fabulous birthday!
