“I will most likely go to our house upstate, but I may head to the beach to stay with friends instead. It will be a last minute decision. I’ll be with my husband and kid, and my weekend will consist of a lot of swimming, eating, sleeping, catching up on shows that I love, and deep relaxation. I’ll be casual, casual – a bikini and this amazing linen jumpsuit that I’ve been living in recently.”

“I’ll be honeymooning in Tanzania, my husband and I are landing in Kilimanjaro on July 4th. I’ll be drinking Grey Goose on the rocks with two limes and wearing Cushnie et Ochs swimwear and Resort 17.” –Michelle Ochs
“I’m going to Oaxaca City Mexico for some wedding planning and Puerto Escondido for a little beach time with my finance, my parents and my future in laws. Oaxaca is one of the best culinary destinations to go to so I cannot wait to try everything and taste our wedding menu, including the mezcal. I’ll be wearing pastel jersey dresses and lightweight knit dresses that are so great to pack.” – Carly Cushnie

“For the Fourth I’ll be in Quogue with my family, hanging by the pool and beach and of course enjoying some fireworks! I come from a big family and we love having backyard BBQs, it’s just easy with all the kids. I’ll be wearing the Dev dress from my SS16 collection, because there’s something really festive about it for the Fourth of July. It’s super easy yet you still feel stylish. It’s great to put on over your bathing suit or even to just lounge around in.”

“I’m going to a cottage in Canada for the long weekend with my husband, our best friends and their oversized dog Rufus. We will be playing cards on the beach, going fishing and dancing all night. I’ll be eating fresh tomatoes and mozzarella non-stop. I’ll be drinking Dirty Palmers and Moscow Mules and wearing Thierry Lasry sunglasses, Lisa Marie Fernandez swimsuits and Tanya Taylor dresses.”

“I’ll be at the beach with my whole gang. Hopefully we’ll be spending a lot of time in the water, so I’ll be wearing a CR wetsuit. And nothing tastes better than an ice cold homebrew, topped off later with a WTRMLNWTR and tequila.”

“I’m looking forward to staying close to home this 4th. Soho House Malibu is only 10 minutes away from my cabin in Topanga… Keeping things low key and beachy with my West Side gang of ladies. The vegan offerings at SOHO are delish! I’ll be skipping the traditional go-to hot dogs and hamburgers…but hitting the mezcal. I’ve been saving one of my crazy beautiful red, white and blue tie dye-one off maxi dress just for 4th of July, I can’t wait to rock it!”

“This Fourth of July I will be at our home in Shelter Island with our friends and family. We will be having a cook out! I’ll be making whole corn with cilantro and lime butter, carrot and avocado salad, and pavlova for dessert. My drink will be an Aperol Spritz and I’ll be wearing my Rebecca Taylor white poplin ruffle front with lace detailing cotton dress. It’s the perfect dress for a summer afternoon!”
