It's not exactly news when nautical inspiration turns up as a summer trend. What's notable this year, however, are modern takes on classic trends like boat shoes and rope bracelets that have been reincarnated with a fresh new spin. Here are some nautical pieces we're loving this season.
1. Rag & Bone Ramblas Dress, $220
Navy and white stripes are a classic nautical combination, but this trans-seasonal cotton dress manages to make them look effortlessly cool. Wear this as a dress or worn over skinny white jeans.
2. Milly for Sperry Top-Sider Printed Platforms, $202.50 (sale)
Milly collaborated with classic Top-Sider brand Sperry for this fresh floral update on boat shoes. Braided platform heels are a modern take on preppy nautical style.
3. Ropes of Maine The Chubby, $60
Forget the nautical rope bracelets you wore in summer camp, The Chubby mixes bold color combinations with sleek gold hardware for a new twist on a New England classic.
4. M.A.C. Hey, Sailor Highlight Powder, $29
Inside a nautical striped compact lies a superfine pressed powder containing pearlized highlights to give you a pretty summer glow.
5. Modcloth Quite a Hull Bag, $49.99
This small cross-body bag captures nautical style in this year's must-own satchel silhouette. Vegan materials are an added bonus.
