Patriotic or not, it’s hard to deny that something about the Fourth of July feels like the official kickoff to summer. Whether you’re headed to the beach, strolling city streets, or making the rounds at backyard BBQs, one thing’s for sure: staying cool while serving cool-girl energy is non-negotiable.
And when we think quintessential cool girl, one brand immediately comes to mind: Reformation.
From celebrity collaborations with Kacey Musgraves to campaigns featuring fashion favorites like Camille Rowe and Devon Lee Carlson, Reformation has mastered the art of creating pieces people actually want to wear. Equal parts effortless, trend-aware, and timeless, the brand continues to stay firmly at the center of every cool girl’s Pinterest board.
We stopped by the Reformation Sample Sale—happening now at our NYC Nomad location (260 Fifth Ave.)—to pull together the perfect looks for Fourth of July weekend.
The Classic Fit
When we think Fourth of July, denim and a crop top immediately come to mind.
A denim maxi skirt paired with a classic red top is the kind of outfit that never misses. It’s casual enough for daytime hangs but polished enough to look like you planned the outfit weeks in advance.
Finish the look with a mesh mule for a little edge—because even back yard BBQ dressing deserves a fashion moment.
The Laid-Back Chic Look
If your holiday weekend plans include equal parts beach time and fireworks, this one’s for you.
A flowy top paired with relaxed satin pants delivers that effortless “I just threw this on” energy we’re all chasing. Reformation’s cult-favorite Gale Satin Pant is the ultimate summer staple—we’re willing to bet you’ll still be reaching for them long after the fireworks are over.
Add a heel if you’re feeling ambitious- cause skies this limit with styling options for this look.
The Not So Red, White & Blue Fit
Let’s be honest: red, white, and blue isn’t everyone’s aesthetic.
If patriotic dressing feels a little too on-the-nose, skip the color palette altogether and opt for a sleek slip dress instead. Minimal effort, maximum impact.
A simple flower print dress instantly feels elevated while still keeping you cool through a long day of celebrations. Dress it up, with nude heels or down with flip flops, for the ultimate cool-girl finish.
Who says you have to dress patriotic to be the best dressed person at the party?
