Although sailors are usually known to roam the seas, it seems they are also testing the waters of the fashion world.
The nautical/sailor style may seem old fashioned, but the traditional blue and white colors of the style have been spotted in various locations of high fashion. 

Seen in fashion lines of companies like Victoria Secret and Wet Seal:
While being sported by celebrities like Katy Perry and Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester:
The Sailor Style is chic, trendy and up and coming.

This weekend when I went out to visit my sister in Buffalo, New York we headed to the Walden Galleria Mall with the plans of a shopping spree.The mall is always a hot spot for us because it is home to top fashion stores
like Guess, Urban Outfitters, Anthropology, H&M and Forever 21.

 After spending an hour in Forever 21, the store usually over-stocked with the cutest styles, it seemed this time, their clothes were letting me down. After sifting through racks of clothing, I finally came across the cutest pair of sailor style shorts. As I have written about in an earlier post, drawing mock tattoos is a habit of mine. One of my favorite things to draw is an anchor like Amy Winehouse’s (R.I.P). I was also a sailor girl for Halloween:
Spotting these nautical style shorts I knew I had hit the jackpot! Not only were these shorts the sailor style, they were high waisted. Yet another one of my favorite styles! I bought them right away and couldn't wait to wear them!
