The 4th of July is actually the inspiration behind the Jennifer Babydoll Dress. I wanted a cute navy gingham print mini dress that I could wear off the shoulder to a 4th of July party and other summer events so I partnered with Gibsonlook to create the perfect babydoll dress.
Our heart shaped sunglasses are only $8!
The Jennifer Babydoll Dress is fun, flirty and so chic with a smocked bust and statement puff sleeves. I designed it so that the puff sleeves can be worn on or off the shoulder and both ways look so flattering on the arms and neckline. I know this will be a go-to dress for parties, summer trips, date nights, wedding festivities and so much more. It’s especially perfect for the 4th of July weekend coming up next weekend.
Sizing: Be sure to size down! I’m wearing the sz XXS and it fits perfectly. The bust is smocked so it’s super stretchy! No zippers! Full disclosure: I hemmed mine 1.5 inches because I like my mini dresses super short since I’m only 5 ft. See more about the Jennifer Babydoll Dress here–> The Perfect Summer Babydoll Dress
These are all of our best friends that we’ve grown up with and now our kids will get to grow up together too.
The American flag on our front porch is a size 3 x 5 and we had to buy the tangle free spinning pole and mounting brackets separately.

| 4th of July Favors for the Kids |
I filled mini tin buckets with bubbles, red, white and blue beach balls, a small American flag and a patriotic pinwheel to entertain the kids. I used chalkboard stickers to label the buckets with all of their names for a personal touch. The bubbles kept them happy and entertained along with the Jump n’ Slide bouncer that we blew for the kids to play on. I also always pull out basketball, golf, T-Ball, and corn hole for the kids to play with outdoors.

How adorable is this luxury picnic setup by @partyteepeezz? We used a bunch of my lanterns and decor from At Home Stores and World Market.
All of our outdoor furnture is from World Market a few years ago. The American flag on the back patio is a size 5 x 8 and we hung it with command hooks.
