Trinity of summer trends: Nautical

As with Tribal, there are so many ways you can wear nautical. You could go for full on 'Ahoy Sailor!' get up, with anchor print and a captain's hat, which may appeal to the more theatrical amongst you. Alternatively, the more subtle approach would be to embody the chic of the French riviera - Breton tops, white linen, floppy hats. However you choose to wear it, nautical is a stubborn trend, and that's probably because it is ideal for reclining by the beach, pool or even television. Wear your red, white and blue with pride and wear it constantly for a flawless summer of seaside perfection.
