3 ways to rock the nautical look this summer

Check these out, too...

  • Ed. obsession under $20: Primp out your keyboard
  • What he really thinks of your fave summer outfit
  • Tune up your summer concert wardrobe with these picks
In a sea of sundresses and shorts, our take on the classic nautical trend is sure to make you stand out. The sailor inspired vibe is all about flattering stripes and navy, white and red pieces that are sure to standout. Anchors aweigh! 

 

At brunch: Ahoy, ladies!

Pair crisp white skinnies with a striped tank for a lunch date with your besties. Add a pair of red flats or pumps to make your outfit really pop. A slouchy cut tank is more posh and less polished. Cool!

At the beach: Go overboard

Why not sport a sailor-themed bikini during your next beach day? Wide stripes not only look cute but also create the illusion of curves. Classic wayfarers and leather sandals polish off your preppy look.

At the biggest party of the summer: Set sail in color

While the rest of your crew sports micro-minis, a bold curve-hugging maxi dress is a great option to show off your bod without showing too much skin. Red and blue bands look gorge with an armful of gold bangles.

Ok so I have noticed these pimple looking bumps on my boobs could I have breast cancer?

Hey girl,

Breast cancer is lumps inside your breasts, so you probably just have a pimple that you can solve with body wash and lotion. To be safe, show the bumps to your mom or a doc and see what they say!

Tomorrow I am going to a festival. I want to look very cute!!!
What should I wear????

Hey girl,

Summer festivals are the time for casual chic, so why not go in shorts and a cute top, maybe a striped tee? You don't have to wear anything fancy, you want to be comfortable so you can have fun!

Hi, I was wondering what age you think is best to start wearing a push up bra? Thx!



Hey babe,

I would say whenever you feel it would be most comfortable.  I stayed in normal padded bras for about two years before I tried out a few padded ones.

Ooh, I love the dress and the navy outfit! I'm a curvy girl, but I'm not a prostitute, so why should I dress like one right? This dress is the perfect balance!

Play up your frock. Instead of pairing flats or pumps with that summer dress, try adding some edgy boots or sporty sneakers.
