11 Nautical Inspired Wardrobe Pieces

Especially in this cold, I wish I could relax on a boat by the beach. Here are a few of my favorite nautical inspired pieces you can purchase for Spring.




Which is your favorite?

Valentine's Day: Wearing Houndstooth and Polka Dot Denim

Whether you are single or taken, Valentine's Day is an excuse to dress up, eat chocolate and get spoiled with flowers. 


Inspired by the romance and whimsy of Valentine's Day, I wore a feminine outfit that I layered with patterns and subtle sparkly details. 



This houndstooth coat is from Express, and it is a classic piece to dress up any outfit to make it special. I am also a big fan of the hot pink lining; perfect for Valentine's Day.



I wore my gold button up chiffon blouse from Juicy Couture. The gold buttons add a special touch that dresses up a look.


To tie in the gold detailing, I wore this elaborate statement necklace from Target. The subtle pink in the jewels adds a girly touch while remaining chic.


 These polka dot jeans are also from Target and add another subtle detail of pattern that make the outfit less casual. 


My gold watch and bow ring are from Kate Spade, and my heart ring was a gift. The kissing zebras bracelet is from The Limited, and fits with the whimsical details of the outfit.


Rolled denim looks great with these booties that are from Pac Sun.  


Outfit Recap!

12 Must-Haves for Spring

The thought of a new season inspires me to do some shopping. I am trying to hold off on making any purchases until it heats up outside, but here are some items on my Spring wish list for when the weather gets warmer!



12. Lilly Pulitzer Pearl Necklace

What are some of your spring must haves?


Cable Knits & Button Downs

When in doubt, rely on the classics. I like the look of a button down underneath a sweater, and when it is snowing I am okay with any excuse to layer my outfit.


This navy blue cable knit sweater is from Tommy Hilfiger. A plain cable knit is a closet staple, and can be dressed so many different ways that it is worth the investment.


My magenta striped button up is from C. Wonder, and I absolutely love the patterned detail underneath the collar and sleeve cuffs. I am happy I snagged this unique top when I did because C. Wonder is now going out of business (I am pretty devastated). I paired the top with a simple pearl necklace.


This chain link bracelet is from Ann Taylor, and it instantly adds a bit of sparkle to any look.


And if it is snowing, I have to wear my Hunter Boots.

Boots: Hunter | Necklace: Gift

I hope you are staying cozy, and enjoying any snow days that come your way!


Vest Dressed

It is no secret that I am over this snowy weather, so I do what I can to add some spring style into my winter wardrobe.


Lilly Pulitzer makes it easy to make a winter day feel less drab. The Allie Packable Vest has been extremely practical for staying warm, and it is unique with its floral lining. It instantly makes me feel better about forcing myself to go out in the snow. 


Unfortunately, this vest sold out at the Lilly Pulitzer After Party sale, but they still have another floral vest option which you can get by clicking here!


To pick up some of the vibrant colors in the vest lining, I wore this collared button down from Target with a hot pink bike pattern. I also wore a contrasting mint green jeweled necklace from Francesca's Collections, with gold detailing to match the zipper detail of the vest.



I take advantage of any day where I don't have to wear boots. These mint loafer flats are from Target, and my cuffed jeans are from Gap. 


I hope you are all having a great week, and staying warm!

Best,

Nautical in the Snow

Happy Monday! It has been a snowy past couple of days, but I got to spend my Saturday having a post-holiday brunch (all day) with my friends.

 

 Blouse: Ann Taylor  |  Necklace: Kohls  |  Cardigan: American Eagle  |  Watch: Urban Outfitters
Jeans: GAP  |  Anchor Bracelet: Kiel James Patrick  |  Belt: J. Crew  |  Boots: Hunter  

I miss the colors of Spring, so I added a pop of mint in my cardigan and accessories along with this nautical button up blouse. I love this top because it is versatile to layer for winter, or wear on its own for warmer weather. To tackle the snow, I wore my Hunter boots which are my go-to for the winter months. 

I hope you are keeping warm in this snowy weather! I know I can already use a beach vacation.


Cats and Cardigans

So maybe cats and cardigans aren't a classic combo, but I do love pairing gold and navy blue together in an outfit. I am not a Michigan fan (Go Bucks!), but I like the look of this contrasting color combination. 


I love the adorable cat motif on this bowed blouse. This golden yellow cardigan is from Banana Republic and my cat shirt is from Old Navy. Adding a vibrant color to an outfit makes this gloomy winter weather less depressing.


To pick up the gold detailing on the cardigan, I wore my Kate Spade watch and blue jeweled bracelet from The Limited.


I added accents of light blue by wearing this Kate Spade Capricorn charm, and Alex & Ani beaded bracelet. 


My Hunter Boots are a winter staple, and I love how this navy blue pair are both practical and stylish for the winter months.


I hope you are staying warm wherever you are! I am appreciating any day that is over 30 degrees and not snowing. Can spring time be here already?
