With Memorial Day just behind us, summer is here! My plans for Memorial Day always include going to the beach with friends, so recently my mind has been focused on that. I have been planning some beach-worthy outfits to pack, which is how I spotted this Fashionista. This Fashionista caught my eye since her outfit has a nautical feel with red flats and striped cardigan.
This Fashionista was dressed casually for some errands around town but I love how her outfit seems to have a theme. Sometimes instead of just one bold accessory it can be fun to add multiple accessories that all have a similar style or theme. Her J.Crew navy-and-white striped cardigan, Lucky Brand red flats and simple gold necklaces all maintain traditional preppy nautical vibes that work very well together. The red flats are ideal for errands as they are comfortable and easy to walk in but the bright red remains youthful.
While some people may read this and think that “theme-ing” an outfit is a little crazy, I think it can be a fun way to get dressed in the morning. This Fashionista perfected the nautical look by keeping the theme subtle and not too over-the-top, this way the outfit remains practical.
A nautical look like this Fashionista's is perfect for any Memorial Day plans you may have. A simple striped cardigan like this one from Urban Outfitters and these simple red Tory Burch flats can be worn with white jeans or jean shorts and a simple tank to create the perfect outfit with nautical accessories.
