Hey, Sailor!

The nautical trend in fashion seems to have some staying power, and I for one am glad for it. Blue, white, and red stripes. Bows. Gold buttons. Wide legs and high waists. It's a classic look that works well especially for the warm summer months.

They key to the look is to avoid looking too twee and precious (and too much like a little girl) and finding a balance between all your pieces. Find a cute sailor dress? Maybe pair it with some fierce espadrilles or some mod sunglasses. Sailor pants? Go with a top thats crisp and clean.

Now, you might want to go for the whole kaboodle, but you might be trending more towards costume than fashion, but if you can rock it, why not?

Here are some affordably priced nautical inspired pieces (which, you could wear together, or as separates).
