SHIRT DRESS WITH LEGGINGS
Another red, white, and blue outfit just in time for the 4th of July. My daughter tells me that there will a lot of celebrating going on in Juneau over the 4th. It is funny how different parts of the country celebrate certain days more than the other part of the country. I know Savannah, Georgia has a huge St. Patrick’s celebration every year, New Orleans goes all out for Mardi Gras and New York City is the place to be for New Year’s Eve.
I have no idea what Ashleigh has in mind for Joe and me to do while we are in Juneau. We went to a glacier, went whale watching, and rode the tram up the mountain the last time we were there. I don’t think I want to go zip lining but you never know. She thinks we are going to go on hikes or play disc golf but I don’t see much of that in my future. Lol!
I have never been a huge fan of the shirt dresses but when I saw this one the other day I decided to give it a try. This is a classic style button down and it is so crisp and clean looking. I got this the day went on my shopping spree to Cato’s. It has a subtle pinstripe design and one of my favorite features is the hidden pockets.
I really like these red leather hoop earrings. They are the Aleah. They are a 4″ drop and are extremely lightweight. The red, white, and blue jewelry is part of the Plunder specials. The blue cuff is called the Independence, the silver link bracelet is the Liberty Bell and the necklace is the America.
I could have worn the dress without any leggings but I decided to go casual with sandals and crop leggings. These leggings are a pair that is ankle length but I hiked them up for the effect I wanted. The bright red sandals are a pair of Marc Fishers that I bought a long time ago. They were in my closet and had gotten kicked up under the pants that were hanging there. I was looking for something else when I found them. I had forgotten all about them and was pleasantly surprised when I found them.
Whenever the grandkids are around we have to play with Play-Doh. Matti was very creative and made me several creations.
She is extremely talented. I don’t know if I could have done that good.

I love this! Is there any chance the America necklace is still available? I attempted to find it on the website, but it looks like it may no longer be available. Thank you!
Love the outfit, very comfortable and cute. Love the artwork also, someone is very talented.
Love your outfit & jewelry today- great look for you!
The outfit is really charming! Love the red, white and blue. I think it can be worn all summer, not just for Fourth of July!!! Where do you get your leggings?? I keep forgetting to check the box to show me “new” posts, so if you have answered me before, I apologize!! Thanks!!!
Beth, I don’t have ay particular place that I buy my leggings from. I have some LuLaRoe, some from Wal-Mart, and some from Old Navy and boutiques.
I am a new follower to your blog. I have a question, how do you stay so slim? You always look nice in everything you wear!
I am just really good at camouflaging my weight. Lol! I have also learned the art of posing.
I love that dress and you’ll be styling in Juneau! Enjoy!
Go zip lining, Tania!! My husband & I did it on a business trip he had in North Carolina & it was an absolute blast!! It was much better than the white water rafting excursion we also took that dumped our raft full of people into the French Broad river! Lol I hope you have a fabulous trip to Alaska!!
I like this look.
I have a pair of white leggings that I never wear. Do you think they will look okay under the same shirt dress?
Tania, most clothing with pockets will get a second consideration from me so I completely understand your attraction that the dress. Your whole look seems so easy and comfy but with that edge of chic we all strive to achieve. Your American spirit is shining through.

specially with fondant icing. Adorable.

I’d go zip lining—-I think it’d be a kick!! And just think of the stories you could tell afterwards!!

This is a winner for me. Looks so comfortable.
My 50th birthday present to myself was to go zip lining in Kauai. Tania, I still giggle every time I think about it. It was a blast and totally out of character for me. You should ABSOLUTELY go do it!!!! ❤️
Love this outfit great dress and jewelry! Just pinned.
Such a great look without looking like a flag and the leggings definitely make the outfit! The art work is fabulous, tell your budding artist that she is doing great and we look forward to more exhibits!
I’m not usually a big fan of shirt dresses either but this outfit does look great. It would also look good as a travel outfit especially for a road trip as it looks so cool and comfortable but also stylish!!
Looks great! Happy 4th! Canada’s 150th birthday is July 1st so I wear read and white. Thanks for the inspiration!
I love you style !!!!
Oh, you’re going to have Soo much fun!!
This is super cute!!
