The nautical look is
one of those ageless trends that comes back into fashion each spring. And with
good reason! The look is classic and fresh; it’s all about adding flair to your
personal style. Caution: Don’t go overboard ~ choose one item or trend to keep
your look chic. Our friends at Toss Designs, Francesca’s and Athleta tell us
what they have on board for the season.
Toss Designs’ Jennifer
Hogan, says they love adding a pop of orange to the traditional nautical mix of
navy and white. An orange cashmere poncho adds a big wow
over a striped maxi skirt or dress from the Regatta collection. Grab and go ~ A nautical-themed bag is an
easy way to make a big impact and the perfect accessory to stash everything
from your workout gear to your beach supplies. The Nautical Necessities collection includes
canvas totes with lobster, seahorse and anchor images.

Nautical is making a
splash at Francesca's this spring says Store Manager, Lisa Ybarra. The trends
include the traditional red, white and blue which pair swimmingly with
all-things sea life; shells, starfish and anchor adorned jewelry. Coral is an inspirational color as well as a
feature design item in the jewelry collection. And turquoise and sea foam green
paired with whites inspire images of the ocean and sand.
