Are you ready for summer? I know that
I am. So yesterday was the official first
day of summer, but I’m not able to see or feel the difference. I’ve been summer ready for a few months now
since I live in Florida. I don’t know
about you, but when I was a kid I always used to look forward to the first day
of summer. Growing up in Jersey it was
just one of those things that I looked forwarded to each year. My summers were never filled with exotic
vacations anywhere, but my sisters and I had the best time hanging out with our
neighbors on the block or with family in Brooklyn, NY. One of the many reasons that I looked forward
to summer is that I got to buy a couple new summer outfits each year. I
remember my mom dressing my sisters and I up in some sort of nautical themed outfits
and over the years it has stuck with me.
Each summer I always end up finding at least one piece of clothing or
accessory that reminds me of summer at sea.
For this
week’s Fresh Picks to Follow, here
are my top 10 nautical pieces to get me ready
for summer. Do you buy any specific outfits or pieces or
