Nautical: new pattern on the shore

Nautical: new pattern on the shore

It’s back again (and thank God!), infiltrating our wardrobes and making our lives better; yes that’s right, nautical is back. Whether you’re clashing or coveting it, just make sure you have it. We have an array of stripes (vertical and horizontal) so have a look and see what “floats your boat”.

This dress from H&M is the perfect edition to your steadily growing sailor theme. It shouts elegance and class, but swoons over your body, shifting with it as you stride your way through your day.

River Island has it going on this season, with the hot, hot, hot wrap top in big, bold black and white stripes; there isn’t anything not to love about this. Pair it with a contrast pattern skirt for a fun party look, or smart tailored trousers and dare a lunch. Whatever you do with it, you’ll look fine.

These tailored striped flippy shorts from BooHoo also come in perfectly to the season. With a slight beaded drop to some of the lines, the shorts are given a new feel, and with an orange jumper to liven your step, or a structured mini cream top, your look will go to a whole new level.

If you’re thinking about accessorising then go to Michael Kors for style tips, because this clutch is perfect for both day and night wear. It will fit all of your essentials, and act as an essential of it’s own.

River Island makes the cut again with these super stylish asymmetric striped shoes; they’ll flatter your feet better than any other and promise to look fabulous as you’re on your travels.

When it comes to nautical, that ship has most definitely not set sail. Jump on board now and get going with this ever growing (rightfully so) theme.
