Outfit of the Day: Sailor Stripes

Okay, confession time: I have a thing for nautical-themed outfits. Like, I may or may not own a straight-up sailor dress. And during my after work nap today I might have possibly been dreaming that I was Sailor Moon. I'm not going to confirm or deny any of this of course, because I am an adult woman with an office job and other grown-up things, but I'm just saying: if it became socially acceptable for me to dress like Donald Duck, plus pants, to work tomorrow I definitely would.

However, since there's a time and a place for everything (and an engineering firm is probably not the time or the place for a dress that would be more at home in a Japanese cartoon than at a receptionist's desk), I find other ways to add nautical details to my outfits. One of the most subtle ways to do this is sailor stripes, which are coincidentally really in style at the moment. There's just something summery and awesome about nautical stripes, even if you're living hours from the nearest coast. I've found six cute navy and white striped modest fashion options for spring, all $60 or under, if you feel like dipping your toes into this trend!
