RED (WHITE & BLUE) ALL ABOUT IT!

AHOY, DARLINGS!

With the Memorial Day weekend nearly upon us, we are FINALLY able to bust out all of our preppiest, yachtiest looks.

Nothing says sexy sailor, on or off the boat, more than red and white wardrobe pairings. Toss in a little navy for fun, if you like. But please refrain from literally nautical nods, such as large anchors emblazoned all over your attire (though oceanographic hosiery a la Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture is acceptable - see detail photo at right of jellyfish-adorned legwear, courtesy style.com).

We’ll start from the ideal underpinnings and sail on from there: try this Lisa Curran mod striped bandeau bikini (at top left), available at shopbop.com with free ground shipping, always!

Or, even more naughty-cal, sport a Jessica Simpson striped halter top and denim cheeky boyshort bikini (at right), currently on sale at victoriassecret.com!

Layer on top: a playful sundress! Try either of these two amazing red and white dresses at left from Ron Herman’s L.A. Boutique: Ella Moss pleated stripe dress (top) or Jill Stuart Robin floral print frock (bottom). Go to ronherman.com. Alternatively, don this Juicy Couture scallop dress, with adorable self-belt, available at shopbop.com.

Stow your Ray-Bans, Bain de Soleil and MAC SPF lipgloss in this delectable Foley + Corrina patent and canvas mini city tote (at right), a style recently popularized by Gossip Girl. Go to shopbop.com.

No matter what, you MUST have a seasonally appropriate wrap, like this Brooks Brothers red and navy linen scarf (at lower left), for purchase at brooksbrothers.com. So chic!

Now you are truly seaworthy!
