Anchors Away: Our Top 7 Nautical Picks from Ralph, Adler, Sperry and More

Batten down the hatches and drop anchor because nautical fashion is making some major waves this summer. We at Fashion Trends Daily have deemed these maritime-inspired items as booty well worth sailing after. With enough looks for each of the seven seas, you can rock a different nautical-inspired piece while looking like a sailor without having to curse like one.

MAC Hey Sailor! Collection

MAC Hey Sailor! Collection

Mac’s latest limited edition summer release Hey Sailor! ($15-45) collection inspired by vintage pin-up girls debuted this summer complete with 38 pieces.  In addition to a plethora of makeup products, many of which are waterproof, we loved the Hey Sailor! makeup bag and Gone Sailing tote.  But listen up mateys, this line is selling out quick so gather your doubloons and set sail to your nearest MAC to get your hands on some of this highly-coveted booty.

J. Crew Dizzy Anchors Dress

J. Crew Dizzy Anchors Dress

While we’ve seen plenty of anchors at J. Crew this season the Dizzy Anchors Dress ($168) is one of our favorites, bringing a little eastern seaboard to the classic New England glam. This is the perfect sundress to wear as you spend your days exploring the ocean blue, relaxing poolside in South Hampton, or sipping a cocktail while catching the sunset in San Tropez. In addition to a ruffle hemline, this dress sports pockets that are perfect to hold your compass and treasure maps. X, or in this case, anchor, marks the spot signaling this must have summer item.

Sperry Top-Sider

Sperry Top-Sider Authentic 2-eye Boat Shoe

While we’ve always loved Sperry’s classic look, lately we’ve noticed they have really been upping their game for the fashion set (preps beware!).

In addition to classic colors like brown and black, Sperry’s signature boat shoe now comes in the perfect nautical color scheme. The Women’s Authentic 2-Eye Boat Shoe ($90) is great for a day on the seas. Even the worst of storms won’t throw you overboard thanks to Sperry’s signature Waving-Siping sole.

Ralph Lauren Pant

Ralph Lauren Linen Sailor Pant

If you don’t happen to be related to a navy vet (we happen to know one stylish lady who snagged a vintage pair straight from her grandfather’s closet) never fear you can set sail with the Ralph Lauren Linen Sailor Pant ($139). While they may not be regulation, they’ll add a nautical twist on summer’s white pant.  This chic wide-leg trouser is embellished with anchor-embossed buttons. Far from suitable for sweeping the poop deck these pants will have everyone saluting to you as captain.

Jonathan Adler Tote

Jonathan Adler Blue Stripes Rope Tote

Shiver me timbers! This nautical Jonathan Adler bag is just big enough to hold all your pirate’s booty. The Blue Stripes Rope Tote ($250) is the perfect size to bring on the boat, stuffed with a matching Jonathan Adler beach towel, a tube of your trusty Josie Maran sunscreen, and don’t forget your Sperrys for the perfect summer day on the sea. Finished with great rope handles and the ever-trusty slipknot this is the perfect summer carryall.

You won’t want to lose the treasure map to this India Hicks Diamond Starfish Wrap Cuff ($2,650). If you’re looking for just a simple touch of nautical flair it’s the perfect go-to accessory to get your feet wet before you dive headfirst into this trend. While this small piece makes a big statement make sure to steer clear from marauding pirates. We’re not the only ones that have our eyes on this gorgeous diamond encrusted piece.

When you’re stocking your yacht skip the boring bottles and opt for the Diet Coke Jean-Paul Gaultier Collaboration. Available only in Europe, Gaultier follows the 2011 Karl Lagerfeld edition with a Night & Day motif. Daytime brings Gaultier’s signature Breton stripes and night channels Madonna’s iconic cone bra and corset. Also available are commemorative glasses and an ice bucket. While it’s not available in the states set your course to the Mediterranean and pop open this one-of-a-kind souvenir.
