When the days are getting warmer and fashion trends are shifting from winter, to spring, to summer, we all love to picture ourselves on the open water, upon a beautiful sailing boat, taking in the sunshine and surrounds. Whether or not we actually get out on the ocean, one sure-fire way of getting those feel good ocean vibes is to rock some of the year's best nautical trends.
The New Nautical
Nautical styles have evolved significantly over the years, but the common themes still exist, from the traditional simple navy and white stripe, the officers caps, the flap-front trousers or the pea coats.
We expect more exciting variations of this classic preppy look, with more coloursstraying from the traditional blue and white stripes. We can look forward to more pattern variations, buttoned culottes and rope details making their way to just about every part of our outfits.
Making your feet the focal point
Your feet are often an afterthought when it comes to your best nautical look, but it’s about time your feet took centre stage. It’s all about style paired with wearability and comfort for when you are on deck. The great news is, we have just the product range to get you ready for your ocean adventures or your laid back spring looks.
So sailing into the spring, what fabulous footwear should you pair with your Nautical style?
Straying from the blue and white shirts
When we think nautical we often head straight for blue and white striped shirts, instead think about shifting the focus to your feet. Strips in different colours, patterns, start with your footwear and use this as a foundation for your outfit.
High Style, High Fashion Boat Shoe
When it comes to a classic, there is nothing quite like a stylish and simple leather boat shoe. Pair it with your smartest look or use it to add a touch of class to your casual style, but however you wear it, choose Chatham.
