We’re not quite sure how Memorial Day weekend snuck up on us this year, but we sure are glad it’s here.  With nothing but rest and relaxation on the schedule for the next three days, we’re looking forward to some much needed downtime and probably a random cook out or two.  Regardless of where our weekend adventures take us, we’ll definintely be sporting some red, white, and blue over the next few days.  Without question, the American Flag Needlepoint Belt from Smathers & Branson will absolutely be making an appearance.

While many needlepoint belts may be a bit too over the top for frequent wear, the American Flag belt from Smathers & Branson is one that can see heavy use without a second thought.  With a blue base and repeating American flags, this belt definitely isn’t as flashy as some of the others in the Smathers & Branson collection, but we guarantee it’ll draw just as much attention.  Wherever your weekend travels take you, we urge you to take a minute to remember those who paved the way for us to live the way we do in the greatest country on earth.
