Spring Trend: Nautical

Nautical has been a huge trend in the past and will continue throughout spring. Whether its a striped top, white jeans or tan espadrilles, it is easy to incorporate this trend into your spring wardrobe.

Key colors for this trend include navy (obviously!) shades of blue, white, red and gold. A big part of nautical is stripes. Horizontal stripes are something you have to be careful with, so you don't add visual excess weight on your body. Try pairing a flowy striped top with skinny jeans or tucked into navy shorts. Balance the stripes with your body type to even it out and give you a more hourglass-shaped figure.

There are different ways to wear this trend. The easiest way is to wear a navy striped tshirt and tank top. However, there are other ways to incorporate other pieces into your spring wardrobe. Try wearing a striped dress with gold flats or wearing jewelry with anchors on it. There are so many possibilites that are available for any age, style and comfort level!
