It’s July 4th tomorrow, so I have some red, white and blue styles from years past for Throwback Thursday.<\/p>\n

The Jean-Charles de Castelbajac sailor outfit I got in Paris in 2010<\/a> always works for a patriotic holiday.<\/p>\n

The first time I wore it was in Mallorca<\/a> — not for the 4th, just for fun. In 2011, I wore the outfit for the holiday weekend in the Hamptons<\/a>. I updated the look in 2012 <\/a>with flag shoes I received as a gift from designer Terry de Havilland. Here’s a closer look at the shoes.<\/p>\n

My other key red, white and blue look is by Alexander McQueen. I like to wear it for Bastille Day — aka Le Quatorze Julliet<\/a> — if I happen to be in Paris, as I was in 2010<\/a> and 2011<\/a>.<\/p>\n
