Here in Southern California the warm weather is just around the corner. Please, please, fingers crossed. And for anyone who says it's already here, No. 70 degrees does not count as summer weather. I want to sweat standing still, to not worry about having a damn cardigan handy should the sun pass behind a cloud.
I would like to soon be sporting any of these fun nautical-inspired fashions.
(side note: this was my first attempt at creating an "inspiration board" and I'm giving myself a little pat on the back for my efforts, thankyouverymuch)
I recently was introduced to some new music from a band called Tennis (incidentally this came by way of a new friend in my sailing navigation class). The husband and wife duo's music was inspired by a sailing adventure they took upon graduation from college. They sold their worldly possessions, bought a sailboat, and embarked on an extended trip along the Eastern Seaboard. After returning to land, they began to write and record songs based on their adventures . Their music is full of fun sailing references, but that is not why I love it. It's her sweet airy voice and the innocent pure sugary retro-pop goodness.
It's also just so romantic, no?
Anyways, I can't wait to be floating along or anchored off the Catalina shore this summer, sunning myself to these sweet tunes. (I'm not sure if the linked video is the official one, I think probably not, but I like it quite a bit all the same) Enjoy!
