This week, Gabe Johnson's street style, combined with the growing buzz around SF hosting the America's Cup, inspired me to round up a collection of nautical wears, fit for land or water.
What's really great about this trend is that you can go full sail with a head-to-toe look or, for a more subtle approach, nautical staples like striped sweaters (#3) and classic Sperry boat shoes (#5) easily blend into any wardrobe. Best of all, this is one trusty trend that comes back every year. Cheers to smooth sailing ahead.
