Outfit 1
I tried to work with things already in my closet all though I could have gone on and on about accessories that would make these pieces even better! But I tried to stick with the nautical theme, so that means, for colors, blues, whites, creams, and gold. For patterns, anything with knots or stripes, and of course flowy white pants, skirts, etc. Anyway, my outfit is quite simple, its just a pair of white banana republic pants toped with a Tommy Hilfiger striped tank. I rolled the bottom of my pants to give it a "trying to avoid the water" flood look! I love these earrings by Jami Rodrigues Jewelry. I think they would make a great addition to any outfit.

Outfit 2
My second attempt at working with what clothes I have is taking a navy colored Express dress, adding a white cardigan and of course a pair of gold shoes. I would love to be carrying the crochet Louis Vuitton with this outfit!
