It’s been a crazy few weeks here in the Evans household. School ends Monday and then a week from Tuesday, my husband and I are going to be loading a moving pod and moving to Rhode Island. It’s been a long time coming, but it sure seems like everything has been coming together last minute and I have found that with finals, grading, and packing up my classroom and the house, that my blog has suffered from neglect. Today’s post won’t include outfit photos, but I wanted to share with you some items I’m loving for the 4th of July!
It should surprise no one that as an AP US Government teacher, the 4th of July is a holiday I really get into every year. Maybe it’s because I grew up in rural America where patriotism was a way of life, and maybe it’s because my family always taught me to value what I have been given growing up in America. In teaching US Government I am constantly facing our country’s current unresolved issues and inequalities but at the beginning of the day when we say the pledge of allegiance, I truly do feel pride in my country and speak the words as a commitment I intend to work towards.
Leading up to the 4th of July, a number of retailers pull out their red, white and blue. Some of my favorites are Old Navy and Target, but even Nordstrom is getting in on the action! This year I picked up this affordable striped tank and some LOFT blue gingham shorts (not online) for my 4th of July outfit. Be sure to follow me on Instagram to see how I put them together!
Also be sure to check out last year’s 4th of July inspiration for more ideas!

Pray for Jeremy and I as we finish packing up our house and head out! I will try to get an outfit post out for next week but after that, look forward to outfit photos from Westerly, Rhode Island!
Thanks so much for visiting!
