Miley Cyrus Wore Sequin Shorts For The Fourth

by Julia Guerra

Miley Cyrus took patriotism to the next level this holiday weekend. While most of us opted for some sort of red-white-and-blue ensemble Saturday, Miley Cyrus wore a pair of sequin American Flag shorts to celebrate our country’s independence. There are only so many ways you can mix and match the standard Fourth of July color scheme. Leave it to Cyrus to find a way to shine brighter than a firework.

Home of the free for those brave enough to wear sequin bottoms, am I right? Cyrus is certainly known to make a statement every now and again, but her star-spangled-bottoms just made my list of favorites. I don’t exactly venture out of my style comfort zone often, but for a pair of bright sparking shorts, I may have to experiment.

OK, so obviously I wont be rocking a sequin American Flag around my waist anytime soon (catch me next July), but sequin shorts are definitely party-approved. Follow the pop star’s lead by pairing a glittering set with a bikini top this summer, but don’t be so quick to pack up this shining staple come the brisk fall weather. Throw on a solid tank and blazer and you’re ready for the happiest hour. Who says sequins were for cheerleading uniforms and club attire? Not I, my friend. And clearly, not Miley Cyrus.
