Is It the (Long) Weekend Yet? Your July 4th Mood Board

A Monday that kicks off a four-day workweek is a Monday worth celebrating. Our sights are set on the prize of a long weekend and Independence Day celebrations, with visions of cut-off shorts, ice cream cones, and pool floaties. And what better way to get into the spirit of America's birthday than by trolling Instagram?

We found stylish snaps from a diverse group to create our very own July Fourth mood board. Check out Jay Z escorting Blue Ivy to an old school ice cream truck, blogger Krystal Bick's essential Americana pieces, and the Surf Lodge pic that makes us want to get on a bike this minute.
