July Fourth is drawing closer and it's truly an exciting holiday in America. It's a time to reflect on the nation's history and also spend time with friends and family. There's amazing food (maybe in barbecue form?), beach trips, lots of desserts, fireworks, and just a time to do fun things. It's a federal holiday, after all! And because it's summer and July 4th plans usually revolve around some sort of beach or pool or swimming activity, bathing suits are involved. Women want to have cute bathing suits all the time, for any occasion. But there's something different about getting a swimsuit for the Fourth. It's an excuse to go all out on the red, white, and blue. And while it's fun to dress up babies any time, this holiday is one where there's prime opportunity to go all out and deck babies out in their stars and stripes.
It's one of the few times of year (besides Christmas) that it's acceptable for parents and kids to wear matching outfits. But honestly, "mommy and me" outfits are always super cute so we wanted to give those looking to match their little one some options. Swimsuit options especially.
Below are swimsuits for mom and baby (boy or girl) that are either identical or close to it. There's a few reasons why one would want to do this. For one thing, many of these outfits come as sets, which can save time trying to find a patriotic suit for everyone. But also, it's just freaking cute and will make incredible adorable photos. If there's a time to be patriotic and match, July Fourth is it. So take a look at the swimwear below and start planning for the big day. Oh, and there's some matching swim shorts for dad in here, too. No one will feel excluded this year!
