Can you believe the 4th of July is in a few weeks?! As it is one of my favorite holidays I am so excited for the festivities. My original plan for the 4th was to go to the Hamptons then fly home to Columbus on the 6th for the Taylor Swift concert. Unfortunately my plans fell through for the Hamptons so now I am going to Columbus for a week. I was pretty bummed at first that the 4th in the Hamptons did not work out, but the more I think about it the happier I am that it did not. The Hamptons would of have been a crazy week (fun but crazy) and right now I need a vacation from all of that. I have been feeling a little rundown lately and a relaxing vacation at home is exactly what I need. Plus NO ONE does the 4th better than Upper Arlington Ohio. NO ONE. It is also my hometowns 100th anniversary and I want to be there to celebrate it. From watching the parade in the morning, hopping from picnic to picnic, and watching the fireworks at the park, I know the 4th is going to be amazing as always!

I am not sure what I am going to wear for the red, white, and BOOM holiday. Usually I opt for a dress in the traditional American colors. Normally I will wear one outfit to the parade then change for the rest of the day. In the morning I will wear shorts and a tank, then in the afternoon/evening a dress. Whatever I decide to wear I know it will be cute and patriotic!
