It's July 4th which in the United States of America is a very important day! It is our Independence Day! When people think of America they think a country filled with people who are obsessed with apple pie and football, but that's just a stereotype! Neither of us are any of those things and yet we are Americans! The United States of America is a melting pot consisting of a bunch of different people from all walks of life. Paola is a first generation American whose family is from Colombia, while Kirsten is (at least) a 6th generation American whose family came from Ireland, Scotland, Germany, and Poland. But where your family is from doesn't matter as much as where you call home. We most certainly call America our home & we're not afraid to show it. In order to show our pride of living in this country we decided to wear red, white, and blue! During the 4th of July you see fireworks and maybe you picnic? (Even if you don't let's pretend you do) So in true American fashion, we decided to have a little picnic& show off our outfits while we're at it.Our favorite little photobomber even made a special appearance for it. We hope you enjoy!

Picnic Chic
Made in the USA? We are! So is one of our favorite brands, https://www.pinupgirlclothing.com/ whose main store is located in California. We chose to highlight PUG today more than ever because they are the true embodiment of the American spirit! Straight from the website
"Welcome to Pinup Girl Clothing! Since 1999, Pin Up Girl, headed by Laura Byrnes, has specialized in the highest quality vintage inspired fashion, shoes and accessories for women of every size! Our original designs are cut to flatter your curves and make you look as beautiful as you feel, at prices to fit every budget." Now if all their products being made in the U.S.A isn't enough, its a company created by a talented badass woman by the name of Laura Byrnes.(we are all for female empowerment here & love supporting each other every chance we get.). As you can probably tell a good chuck of our wardrobe is from this brand because of how well made it is,because its humanely made in the U.S.A + because we are showing our support of another awesome female striving to make a difference in this male dominated world while spreading body positivity & self love every chance they get. Now our amazing picnic wouldn't be complete without our lovable pup Minnie who simply insisted on being in the pictures & we're sure you'll agree she was the perfect addition to make these outfits even more adorable!
