Fourth of July Thrift Style Inspiration
By Felicia Czochanski Bisaro
All things red, white and blue are upon us for America’s 250th celebration of independence! Cue the barbecues, fireworks and stars and stripes as gatherings with friends and family kick off. Whether you have a tradition for how you spend this long weekend or you like to switch your plans up each year, having an extra day off work can be the best way to take a step back and relax with loved ones. Plus, who doesn’t love a holiday theme?
Independence Day outfits can be versatile. You don’t have to find something with an American flag on it in order to be festive. In fact, more minimalist July 4th looks are trendy right now, and they’ll also help you pull together an outfit that you can re-wear throughout the year, either separately or together.
That’s why shopping secondhand at Goodwill® can be the best way to pull together a unique look that expresses your personal style for the holiday. Not only will Goodwill have finds you might not be able to get in a retail store, but it’ll also be selling them for a small fraction of retail prices. Plus, you can celebrate 250 years of independence by helping others achieve their own financial independence and stability. Goodwill is a nonprofit, and every purchase you make goes back into providing career training and educational resources for your local community.

This outfit screams Fourth of July, vintage throwback edition. I love the tucked in look with the red and white pinstripe top and pleated denim midi skirt. With white booties and a fun straw hat, the red, white and blue bring together this classic style that’s ready for any festive party, fireworks or picnic in the park.

There is nothing better than the feeling of taking home a dress that fits you perfectly after you found it secondhand at Goodwill! That’s what this red dress is for this Goodwill shopper, and I love how she styled it with a belt and an unexpected zebra-print bag. A bold pop of ruby can make you fit right in at any Independence Day festivities. Don’t forget to make the look your own with accessories that feel like you.

I loved this expression of personal style. The fun scallop on the red midi skirt paired with a Superman graphic t-shirt is an awesome way to get in your red, white and blue. The bold red lip, red leather bag and Converse with red details complete this look.
Whether you’re spending July 4th poolside, in the city or at a park, remember that the holiday is a great way to emphasize your freedom of self-expression while spending time with family and friends.
