Curious about the history of Inauguration Day? We have you covered, including the chaos that unfolded on the first Inauguration Day ... over snow. ❄️
"A Fashionable History" ~ Vogue takes us on a journey of the Inauguration Day fashion of America's First Ladies over the decades.
In case you're curious about this patriotic tradition, too. A recent debate over whether flags should remain at half-staff or raised to full-staff for Inauguration Day made us wonder: where did the tradition come from? 🇺🇸
Speaking of patriotic, we found an incredible piece of American history going up for auction. This rare copy of the Declaration of Independence is from July 1776 and will most likely set you back $2 million to $4 million.
