While many countries have an Independence Day, it may not be customary to wear anything special to show one's affinity to the country. As a foreigner, expat or international student in the U.S., there are a few things you can wear to show others you are commemorating or celebrating the holiday.
A few things you can wear on or around this holiday may include:
- Anything red, white and/or blue
- Clothing with American symbols (eagle, Statue of Liberty, etc.)
- Clothing with the American flag on it (as in the top photo- tshirts with the flag on it) or display the American flag on your house, car or elsewhere
- American sports teams, college, or other patriotic t-shirts
- Baseball caps with the local team
- People also dress up their dogs and cats, too!
