Welcome to the kick-off of your Memorial Day weekend! To start off our well-earned long holiday weekend, here’s another edition of Trends for Less. I bet you’re getting ready to head to some barbecues this weekend and if you’re like me, your first thought is what to wear? Every day is a fashion show and holidays are no different! The most cost-effective way to do this is to invest in a few navy, red, and white pieces so you’re festive for the holiday but can wear them separately in your daily life. 

In the above set, I featured a Memorial Day look using the navy, red, and white color palette. I paired a navy Dorothy Perkins pleated dress with a white Dorothy Perkins 3/4 sleeve blazer. I accessorized in red with a Lulu Townsend bow clutch, pointed-toe flats from Etsy, a poppy bangle, and a floral statement necklace. I love this look because it’s versatile and the clean lines make it so chic. By purchasing an outfit with a big American flag on it, you would limit yourself to wearing it on holidays only. Since each piece represents a different color of the flag, you’re still ready to be a proud American while still giving yourself the opportunity to style each item separately for any day. 

What are your plans for this Memorial Day weekend? What are you wearing?
