The unofficial start to summer is this weekend! It feels fitting in Charleston as this week is the first week it has felt like summer, weather wise. Just like that, spring is over! When summer says hello, I immediately start bringing out all my nautical pieces. Today’s post is dedicated to nautical Memorial Day weekend outfit ideas for all of you that are constantly inspired by the coast (like me!).

Nautical Memorial Day Weekend Outfit Ideas
The easiest recipe for a nautical memorial day weekend outfit is a blue and white look. This comes pretty easy to me because I wear so very much of the color combo. My embroidered blue and white top is from earlier this year so it is sadly almost out of stock but if you keep reading, then you’ll find some other great options. There are a handful of things I absolutely LOVE about this outfit. For starters, these high-waisted wide-leg cropped white jeans are fantastic! I cannot give them enough praise! They are so comfortable and chic… a major upgrade from standard white jeans.
Nothing says nautical like a net bag and a pair of freshwater pearl earrings. My net bag has been around the blog before as seen on Nantucket here and here and in Charleston here. I love this bag so much because it feels like a classic bag but with a twist. It also isn’t insanely expensive, which is always refreshing when it comes to designer bags (similar for less).
My hoop pearl earrings are also a gorgeous piece for summer. Pearls are timeless but don’t forget that they are super nautical too – they comes from the water! My earrings are from my girlfriend Hilary’s company, Fleuri. They are still a new company and have such an amazing modern take on pearls.
Don’t forget about my powder blue Thelma loafers (last seen here, here, and here)! I love a pretty powder blue shoe this time of year. It’s a lovely blue alternative to navy for the summertime!
