Stars and Stripes

American Flag leggings, Vintage crop jacket - ASOS marketplace, T-Shirt- Blonde & Blonde, Restyled T-Shirt Dress - Studs & Lace

There is no better excuse to don a pair of American flagged leggings than to make a sartorial nod towards our US cousins on this day, July 4^th.

Push the boat out and don some red, white and blue, sprinkle it with a few stars and stripes, and you will be U.S.A fabulous.

For the more understated look, salute to the cruise collection style that wouldn’t look out of place in the Hamptons and try the restyled T-Shirt dress from Studs & Lace.

So as those across the Atlantic spend their day throwing some steaks on the barbecue, enjoying a picnic in the sun, or watching some hugely overstated firework display, check out some of the events in London, and delve into your own Stateside celebrations…

The determined bad summer weather did not hinder the masses at this weekend’s Royal Henley Regatta. A somewhat more understated event amongst a busy social calendar that has been recently invaded by brash celebrities and their hangers on, Henley remains a pleasant and elegant affair.

If you missed this weekend’s frolics by the river, save an outfit for a summers day and accessorise your sunny attire with some vintage finds from studsandlace.com.
