Fashion by the Sea: Going Nautical

With Prince William and Kate Middleton’s wedding extravaganza that took place over the weekend, it got me thinking about the pretty combo of BLUE + RED with the clean and fresh look of WHITE. Nautical fashion is totally IN this summer and fashion houses like Dior, Gaultier and Chanel are taking cues from the sea captain Summer’s coming up and that means trips to the beach, the feeling of warm sand on your feet and a boat ride to a faraway island.  And there’s no better way to dress up than going nautical with navy, red and white stripes, and a few matching accessories!
