For Independence Day in the south, a barbecue is a must. My family always spends the whole day on the lake and ends the night watching the fireworks that our fellow Lake Norman inhabitants put on. I love seeing the whole family and indulging in homemade ice cream. Sparklers, porch swings, and inner tubing, what more says America like an amazing day on the lake. I threw on easy pieces over my bikini, like my trusty Chambray shirt. If you only buy one piece of clothing for a fall/spring/summer wardrobe, a chambray shirt is so versatile. I didn't include shoes in this post because I never wear shoes on the fourth. My lipstick color is Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupte 17. I also wanted to let Casey make an appearance. My boyfriend of four+ years and my usual cameraman rarely sees the other side of the lens. I hope you all had an amazing and safe fourth of july, and remember that we are not free because we claim freedom, but because we practice it. 

Stay Beautiful,
