Red, White & Bear: Build a Patriotic Gummy Bear Stack for the 4th of July

Fireworks, cookouts, and a little sparkle — the 4th of July is basically made for a gummy bear stack. Here's how to put together a red, white, and blue look that's sweet, festive, and ready for the long weekend.

The easy win: our Red, White & Blue Triple Bear Necklace

Want the perfect patriotic look with zero styling? Our new Red, White & Blue Triple Bear Necklace ($35) does it all for you — three hand-poured resin gummy bears (one red, one white, one blue) lined up on a single 18-inch gold chain. It's a limited 4th of July drop, available in four chain styles. Shop the Triple Bear Necklace →

Prefer to build your own? Start with red & white in one

If you'd rather mix and match, the easiest shortcut to a patriotic palette is the Candy Cane Double Bear Necklace — it pairs a red and a white bear on a single chain, so two-thirds of your color story is done in one piece.

Add the blue

Layer in a cool blue bear from the classic Gummy Bear Necklace (think Blueberry or Aqua) to complete the red, white, and blue. Wear it a couple of inches above or below the candy cane bears so each one stands out.

Mix your chains

Combine a gold box chain with a gold snake or white chain for a little texture. The bears keep everything playful, so you really can't overdo it.

Don't forget a wrist bear

Tie the look together with a blue 18k Gold Gummy Bear Bling Bracelet or a red or blue Original Charm Bracelet. Instant festival-ready arm party.

Make it a set

Want to mix three of your own flavors instead? Build a red-white-blue trio with our Build Your 3-Bear Bundle and save while you're at it. New to layering? Our styling guide walks you through it.

Keep your bears cool in the heat

Summer means sunscreen, sweat, and pool days — all of which are easier on your jewelry with a few small steps. Spray sunscreen and bug spray before you put your necklace on, and take it off before you jump in the water. Our care guide has the full rundown.
