This post appears in the Fringe Benefits campaign.

The place where I was born is getting ready to celebrate the signing of The Declaration of Independence. They signed their names for something they believed, which resulted in gaining our freedom. Saturday will mark the 239th anniversary of our independence from Great Britain. Just thought I'd start off with a history lesson...

Anyways, it's a bit hard to stand out from the crowd when the day is dedicated to wearing red, white and blue. Why not go out with a bang and make a statement? No we're not the same, but that's what makes us strong! Fringe is a huge trend right now and always creates a "wow moment", as Tim Gunn would say. The trick is to branch off from the boho-music-festival vibe and to add your own twist. Sport some sneakers and a funky watch to add that intriguing point of view. Nothing feels free quite like fringe!

A great place to shop for fringe and fourth of July gear is Altar'd State! They originated in Knoxville, TN and thrive on heritage and standing out for good. With only 60 stores in the United States, it has become one of the "it" stores for young, creative women. Gotta call it brave to chase that dream across the sea! Feel free and patriotic in Altar'd State this weekend! Have fun with your families and enjoy the fireworks, because this is still the place that we all call home.
