Sailing Into Spring

For those of you who know me, you know that I have a penchant for most things nautical...anchors, stripes, navy blue, knots, I could go on.  That said, when it comes to where I live, you will only see tiny glimpses of this nautical passion of mine.  Rightfully so, I mean who wants to live in a room decorated to look like the inside of a boat?  I'll leave that for when I actually decorate the inside of a yacht...preferably my own.

We have been having such a wonderful preview of spring weather here in the Northern Virginia area and it got me craving those long hot summer afternoons sitting on the deck of a boat and thus the reason for this blog.  I am including some of my favorite things, be it housewares, furniture, jewelry, bags, etc.  It's just one big compilation of nautical things that strike my fancy...



Love the naval uniform inspiration on the leading edge of these curtain panels! Simply Gorgeous! (As seen in Elle Decor)

      

Antique metal painted set of drawers



Striped Chanel cuff bracelet that I would love to own and my vintage Chanel earrings, gold with navy blue leather woven through chain that I adore.  Does Chanel ever get it wrong?

 


Melamine plates with creatures of the sea.  Perfect for a mid-summer lobster bake on the beach




My husband's CG cover... this love for things nautical runs pretty deep




Tom Ford tanning goggles.  Pretty ridiculous and I love them. 





Louis Vuitton rope bracelets that are fabulous.  I want these clanking on my wrists right now!



I officially have spring fever and am praying this warm weather sticks around!  I have a feeling funky patterns and bright colors will be featured in my upcoming blogs...
