'Twas an interesting 4th of July this year to say the least. I know it’s a weird time and it felt weird celebrating, but I’m a sucker for any excuse to dress up and be festive — especially during this pandemic.
I got a lot of questions about my outfits from the day and some food items so I wanted to put all in one place for you guys. My jumpsuit look is also the perfect outfit for summer sansy activities: a socially distant BBQ, a solo brunch date, meeting a s/o’s parents, it has all the makings of a perfect outfit!
I couldn't find my exact one, but this linen jumpsuit from J. Crew is very similar. My swimsuit is by Onia and linked here too.
And I got a lot of questions about my friend Ashley’s crumble recipe. She generously shared it with me so I can share with you guys!
I’m calling it the “Cook Crumble” since that’s her last name. (See what I did there 😉)
