Naughty Nautical Inspired OOTD + FOTD

Hey Guys!

As you know, Nautical is back this year as a trend for Spring/Summer 2012. Even though it is still Winter here, and I can't rock a spring dress or strappy sandals for another couple months, I still wanted to share a nautical inspired outfit that would be cute to wear for the warm Spring/Summer days to come. Note: if the word "Naughty" caught your attention, it is not what you probably thought but a play on words. The only thing naughty about this look is the brand of shoe I am sporting, Naughty Monkey! Come to think of it, I look nude in the first picture so that probably gave the wrong impression as well. LOL

As soon as I saw these shoes I knew EXACTLY what I wanted to pair with them. I remember, last year, buying this striped dress from H&M and never having a chance to wear it. The Naughty Monkey platform sandals are from their Spring 2012 collection and are called the "Marionette". You can purchase your own pair at Victoria's Secret! I love the stripe detailing and the vibrant yellow of the straps along with the chunky heel. I can't wait to rock these in the warmer weather! I think these heels would add the perfect pop of colour to spice up an outfit. Bright colours, such as yellow, are very trendy at the moment and I have since purchased another pair of yellow heels (to follow my recent purchases/hauls, follow me on Pinterest).
