I didn't grow up near the ocean, far from it, but the first time I stood on a beach staring out across the Atlantic and the most beautiful sunrise I'd ever seen, I was in love. I've been a collector of all things nautical ever since. When I found this Pitter Patter Skirt by Maeve on ThredUp for $17.50 and I was instantly drawn to it. The colors reminded me of ocean waves thick with foam.
On the same trip browsing ThredUp, I also found this lace blazer from Forever 21 for only $8 and I knew these two were meant to be. My favorite thing about this jacket is the little gathering at the back. Very sweet and unexpected, it gives it that extra something.
I accessorized with nautical and seashell jewelry just to tie in that ocean wave feeling I got when I first saw it. This outfit, especially the jacket, is surprisingly comfortable. I'll switch the heels for walking flats and this will be my new running errands outfit.
