Nautical Romper & T-shirtHey Sailors! 

Summer vacation is coming up soon, so it’s definitely time to start dusting off your nautical gear & rigging your sailboats! Various designers such as Chanel & Yves Saint Laurent are picking up on their nautical trends & now it’s your turn! Here are 3 simple guidelines to follow when creating a stylish nautical outfit. Have fun!

1.  Key Colors

Navy blue, red & white scream nautical.  These colors are bright vibrant and easy to mix and match.  You don’t necessarily have to go overboard using all three colors.  Simply wear denim bottoms paired with a classic red t-shirt & make the outfit pop add funky accessories! For a limited time only, FashionPlaytes offers their Jane T-shirt in a bright red hue. Add your favorite applique to make a great outfit!

2.  Patterns & Shapes

Stripes, stars, ship wheels and anchors are bold crisp designs that stand out on light and airy one piece rompers or super comfy cover-ups.  Why not add a red and white striped shirt with the summer friendly, white denim pants? Or simply take advantage of FashionPlaytes’ Shay blue & white striped romper or Jane v-neck tee to get super similar results. Don’t be afraid to take chances!

3. Accessories

Don’t be shy when using accessories because they can really make an outfit complete! Gold chains, rope accents & large buttons are very popular for this summer’s nautical trend.  Stack, layer & knot your jewelry to complete your ship-shape look.  Dive in and make your outfit splash with excitement!
