Americana style is an ode to American culture and tradition. It usually consists of a mixture of red, white and blue clothing pieces, stripes and denim and lightweight styles. Nothing says "Americana" like denim. An updated pair of overalls with a white tank is an easy and versatile Americana outfit that works for almost any Fourth of July celebration.
