Outfit for a Thursday: Sailboats and Lucite

I have a not insignificant, but brief confession: I love Talbot's clothing store. Obviously, the sort of refined, older lady aesthetic is alluring and undeniably attractive to me, particularly anything in navy and white. This sailboat pattern, a bit kitsch, surely, was an immediate and impulsive purchase. The skirt is a cotton and linen blend, a fuller cut, and perfect for heavily humid and treacherously warm summer days. Coupled with a simple and classic navy and white striped tee shirt and some lucite accessories, complete with red peep-toe shoes, I was ready to give almost any seafaring blue-hair a run for her money.
