The Trend: Nautical

Sailors! Anchors! Stripes! Oh my! I cannot get enough of the nautical trend. As a girl who's style is a mix of classic and girly, nautical is the perfect trend to work with! So let's get started!

So what exactly does "nautical" mean? Nautical means of or concerning sailors or navigation; maritime. The nautical trend gets its inspiration from things like sailors, the navy, classic colors like blue and red, and a 'sea' theme. Often in nautical clothing, you will see anchors and ruffles.

One of the most common nautical outfits would be a striped shirt with red and blue. You may have seen pictures of celebrities like Taylor Swift sporting this trend.

One of my favorite stores to shop for nautical pieces is an online store called ModCloth. They have a whole range of nautical pieces, whether you want a simple nautical style or a full out sailor style. ModCloth also has a huge amount of nautical bathing suits, and carries regular and plus sizes.

Want to try out the nautical trend? Some staple pieces are: a striped shirt, a ruffled blue/red skirt, anchor themed clothing, and pretty much anything that is red or blue!
