I love nautical. Even the sailor collars. Of course, I am a fan of lolita fashion, which incorporates ruffles, frills, and over-the-top epicness into each of their cupcake-shaped dresses, so, yeah. ^^” It stands out in a crowd! …I’m off topic. I shall fix it. I like nautical lolita dresses.

I love the Nautical look. It is crisp, clean, classy, and makes a striped Target tee look high-end. I agree that the sailor look can be overdone, but it has been around for forever (way before ’06.) It’s outlived the “trend” status.

I am love, love, loving that nautical is being seen again in stores, but I can’t find an anchor pendant to save my life! I’ve worn a white gold anchor charm for years and even have an anchor tattoo (but I won’t say where ; ) ), so the fact that I can once again find some excellently cute striped dresses and bags in stores in awesome, but someone please help me out with finding a good size pendant with a long chain. I recently got an awesome dress from Old Navy to wear for my birthday dinner and can’t find the perfect pendant to set it off.

I agree its nautical trend is classic.I most impotantly like the nautical stripes combined with floral prints selling at the selfridges.I suppose larger women can try it as it would take away all teh attention that you would otherwise get from the stripe.

allthough nautical is ridiculous in the midwest for northeaterners who live by the ocean it totally in, combine the ocean that we love (well most of us) and a cute retro trend and we have the perfect outfit you can wear allmost anywhere

its great. classic. simple. layer it [with a jacket or sweater] to minimize a less flattering effect if you’re on the bigger side.

I like it. oh and I disagree with the person who said larger woman can’t wear stripes. I’m a larger woman and have loads of strip t.shirts.

Ug! Nautical (and animal print) trends should be made illegal. Here in the Midwest..When I think of nautical, I envision “clearance rack” at the end of the season.

Love it, but I’m hoping to eventually find something a bit less stripy and more retro to channel it (no pun intended…). We larger girls really can’t be doing the stripes!

I’m SICK of the nautical trend. It’s been taken WAY too big by commercial brands, and it should be dead and over. Nautical first showed up in Spring 06, and it was cute, yes. But now it’s so horribly rampant that it’s like being at a costume party 24/7.
