I really like pink and blue together. It’s a colour combination that I revive every summer, if not even all year round depending on my mood. There’s just something fun about the contrasting mix that I really love. But stripes are kinda new to me. While I’ve always owned stripes I’ve never really worn them.

Although this top is actually on loan from my mom who wanted to donate to the blog cause. At first I wasn’t sure I was going to use it, but to be honest my love for the side slit far outweighed my disdain for stripes. In the end I liked the nautical look so much that I went out and purchased a few striped accessories (anchor tote bag and hat). So I’ve become one with the stripe now. How about you, are there any trends you weren’t that into at first that ended up growing on you?

The nautical trend has been everywhere this season. But as far as I was concerned it was sailing off into the distance never to be seen again. Until my eyes spotted this anchor tote that is. Immediately drawn to the bold red and white stripe, the contrast created by the overlaying anchor graphic was almost mesmerizing.

A beach tote had been on my wish list for quite some time, so simply put, I had to have this striped anchor tote. I didn’t even realize at first that the straps were made out of actual rope, which just made it that much more cuter. Not to mention quite the statement piece for the summer. And so I wore it to the beach last weekend, pairing it with a little white dress with a lace up front, lace up sandals and a hat, for some cute yet laid back nautical vibes.

Also making its debut at the beach last weekend was this charm bracelet I received from La Maison du Carat. While I’ve seen many charm bracelets none have quite stood out like this one. Amongst the  signature charms surrounding the band sit 3 perfectly sculpted panther charms. They are made of such exquisite beauty that at times I find myself wondering how such a miniature charm can be made with this much  intricate detail. This is quite the unique take on charm bracelets and is a style I truly adore.

I would love to hear what you think of the nautical trend and statement pieces in this post. Do you have any beach tote or charm bracelet faves?

Remember when I told you that I was looking forward to summer to really start rocking that lingerie trend? Well, here we are. This beautiful dress by Tobi could not capture the essence of this trend any better! I love slip dresses, but adore this one even more because of the floral print and eyelash lace detail. What I love most about this slip dress is that it gives off a subtle hint of sexy without overexposing too much. Check out other gorgeous dress on Tobi’s site.
