Consider wearing stars and stripes.
Do it up with denim! Denim is quintessentially American and versatile.
Accessorize with Pride! Stack some red, white, and blue bangles on your wrists, wear a bandana as a headband, and slip on some star-shaped earrings. Don’t forget patriotic hats, glasses, and shoes.
What goes together better than country music and America-Lovin’ Fans?!
