Staying Perfectly Patriotic with Kohl's {4th of July Clothing, Decor and More!}

 

What are the first images that come to your mind when you think about the 4th of July? Fireworks? Parades? Barbeques? Honoring the men and women that have fought for our country over the years?

Whatever it is that pops into your head, there are plenty of great ways to celebrate our country's independence and spend time with family and friends. And, if you're one of those people that enjoy getting into the spirit of a holiday a little more by donning the clothes, cooking the meals or decorating your home, then all the better!

Fortunately, it is more than easy (and affordable) for you and your home to be perfectly patriotic for all of your holiday festivities this year thanks to the one and only Kohl's.

On a mission to be the leading family-focused, value-oriented, specialty department store offering quality exclusive and national brand merchandise to the customer in an environment that is convenient, friendly and exciting, Kohl's makes it easy to get everything for you, your family and your home, all designed to fit your personality and budget.

Whether you are shopping in store, online, on your mobile device or at a kiosk, Kohl's pretty much has absolutely anything and everything that you could be looking for. So, when it comes to finding just the right star-spangled options to outfit your family and home, Kohl's has options galore.

In fact, on our recent visit to Kohl's, there were so many great pieces that would work for the 4th of July (and beyond) that it almost makes it even more difficult to possibly choose! I, for one, would love to shine on the 4th in a great outfit that could then be worn again and again for future events or occasions.

For instance, the LC Lauren Conrad Pleated Ponte Dress (originally $60, on sale for $42), the ELLE Crochet Maxi Dress (originally $68, on sale for $47.60), the ELLE Floral Ruffle Dress (originally $50, on sale for $34.99) and the ELLE Polka-Dot Ruffle Dress (originally $50, on sale for $34.99) are all dresses that would fit easily into the red, white and blue theme of the holiday but could also work easily all summer long.

Or, if a dress doesn't fit with the plans for the day, I also love being able to add the pop of color with many of Kohl's other great options.

Just check out the SO Skater Skirt (originally $20, on sale for $12.99), ELLE Solid Chino Shorts, (originally $40, on sale for $27.99), Dana Buchman Sammy Tote (originally $79, on sale for $49.99) and the Croft and Barrow sole (sense)ability Dress Sandals - Women (originally $64.99, on sale for $39.99)!

Not to mention that the 4th of July probably wouldn't be complete without the huge selection of patriotic t-shirts that Kohl's is known for year after year. For only $4.99, it is beyond simple and affordable to support your country in comfortable, stylish red, white and blue!

There are plenty of men's shirt options as well (along with kids, of course) so that it truly is quick and fun for the whole family to look forward to a weekend of U.S.A. fun.

Or, if the man in your life is used to a little more style and pizazz in his wardrobe, I'm loving the great way that the Croft and Barrow Pocket Pique Polo (originally $26, on sale for only $9.99), the Urban Pipeline Plaid Cargo Shorts - Men (originally $44, on sale for $14.99) and the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Shoes - Unisex (originally $55, on sale for $49.99) can really bring a smile!

But when it truly comes to dressing up and bringing smiles, I have a hard time finding anything cuter than seeing kids, toddlers and babies of all ages sporting their stars and stripes for Independence Day.

There's just not much more adorable than the Sophie Rose Star Colorblock Sundress - Toddler (originally $24, on sale for $14.40), the Jumping Beans Stars and Stripes Scooter - Toddler (originally $14, on sale for $5.99), the Jumping Beans Star Colorblock Babydoll Tank - Girls 4-7 (originally $16, on sale for $6.99), the OshKosh B'gosh Plaid Poplin Bodysuit - Baby (originally $22, on sale for $13.20), the Urban Pipeline Uncle Sam Tux Tee - Boys 8-20 (originally $16, on sale for $7.99) and the Jumping Beans American Flag Flip-Flops - Girls (originally $10, on sale for $5)!

As cute as these options are in pictures, they are even more fun to see in person! Each one is just so bright, colorful and attractive that you can't help but feel proud of the U.S.A. while reveling in the charming details.

But of course Kohl's has much more than only clothes (really, is there anything that Kohl's doesn't have?) so it's easy to pick up great items to spruce up your home for the 4th of July as well.

From small touches to large decor changes, their trendy pieces and affordable prices (made even more affordable with their great sales!) continue to make Kohl's a staple for homes year after year and season after season.

This Independence Day, outfit your family and your home with the great options available from Kohl's! Find out more about their full collections available by visiting Kohls.com, connecting with them on Facebook and Twitter and, of course, visiting the Kohl's location near you.
