Wicked Thrift's Wicked Look: Nautical Style!

Raise the sails for a hot summer style that you can’t resist! Nautical-inspired fashion has been a popular style for years, and here on the Cape it’s even trendier. Stripes, gold buttons, and the traditional red, white, and blue colour-scheme add-up to a lovely sailor ensemble.With a nod to the ever-fashionable look of the 1940s and 50s, Wicked Thrift says all aboard!

Nautical fashion has always remained on top designers' must-have lists. With a look at the runway shows of designers like Junya Watanable and Christian Dior, you’ll see navy and white stripes just about everywhere! Chic, comfortable, and classic, this timeless style will have all hands on deck and all eyes on you for sure!

In Wicked Thrift’s version of this look, we pulled just a few of the many fun pieces found in our stores, that are perfect to achieve the look. 

We started with a gauzy, flowy top ($10).  For those windy nights at the beach, we suggest a cool cover-up like this trendy striped blazer ($14), since stripes are a must to achieve that nautical chic you're going for. Red is hot! And these classic flat-front chinos ($12) have a retro high-waisted look, a throw-back to "real" sailor pants, including a wide-leg flared hem. 

As for the accessories, we’re "shore" you’ll love our picks! For starters, you’re going to need something to keep the sun off of your face, while you’re setting sail, so an adorable wide brim straw hat do the work for you. A glass beaded necklace adds a hint of subtle flair to the outfit, along with the striped belt to add polish. Add a pair of canvas or leather-like sandals, perfect for the boat or the beach.

Nautical style is a fun and trendy way to dive into summer fashion, without looking all wet... Land ho!
