With so many options of what to wear, it can be hard to decide. You could do a red shirt with jeans and that’s pretty average, but why be average when you can stand out? It is time to deck yourself out in red, white and blue and remember those who fought for those colors to represent freedom.

First, start with a shirt. Whether you like muscle tee’s or button ups you can’t go wrong with an American flag shirt.


Next, it’s time for shorts. You can be subtle or bold depending on your taste. You could go for a nice pair of shorts with American flag decorations:

Or you could rock some amazingly made American flag shorts:

Then comes the socks and shoes. Now this one can be tricky, because there are a lot of options. There are heels, shoes, high tops, Toms and cowboy boots. Anything you want, you can have. But if you want to be stylish nothing beats these:

Now it is time to really bring in the look with some nice accessories. Whether it be sunglasses:


Or a nice headband:

Or maybe some nice Mickey ears:

Or an awesome fanny pack:


Or even a nice cape:

With so many options out there, there is no reason you shouldn’t be all decked out in American flag apparel for Memorial Day. It is time to say thanks to those who fought and remember those who lost their lives for this flag, so this is not a time to be subtle with your accessories. Wear your red, white and blue with pride.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
