american flagReady for the Fourth of July? Even though America's birthday bash is just under a week away, let's just assume that we haven't got alllll the party details hammered down yet ... like your outfit; what are you wearing, anyway? Need a hand?

Yeah, I know you do. 

This year, the flag is flyin' and there's nothing that says AMERICA quite like a jean jacket. Sure, you've got your baked beans on the table, your grill fired up, beer aplenty, and you've got the burgers and dogs ready -- hell, you've even made a red, white, and blue cake -- now you're just missing a style to sizzle in at your summer soiree.

There are LOTS of wrong ways to channel Lady Liberty, so let's make sure you do it right! 

If you haven't a clue how show your patriotic pride -- slip into one of these five radical jean jackets for the Fourth of July:

What will you be wearing this year on the Fourth of July?

    Don't want to be a Debbie Downer or anything but its around 100 degrees here in Chicago...I don't think anyone around here is going to be wearing any kind of jacket in July. Surely we can find some cute, patriotic tank tops?

    And OMG, a slideshow! Just kidding. Everyone else says it.

    Ha! I am glad I am not the only one thinking jackets are a strange fashion choice for the 4th. Here in Arkansas, it's 105° in the morning and I barely want to put on a bra, let alone denim WITH LONG SLEEVES!

    It's hot everywhere in the contiguous USA right now.

    I only clicked on this because I thought, "Is this writer fucking stupid?"

    Yes. The answer is yes.

    This writer has not lost her mind! Denim jackets are very popular right now and I believe someone would wear one as a fashion statement and less about temperature. Plus, it's not like you can't take it off! I love these jackets! Especially the first one and the studded one!
