So I styled them simply for a day at the beach with all my favorite nautical pieces.
I sat in the sun and read the NY Times style mag cover to cover (and by read, I mean look at the clothes).
It's the last day of August! How could this ever happen? I feel like I spend my whole life just waiting for it to be summer again.

I agree with Courtney--you are the Nautical Queen and I love that anchor necklace. The shorts are very cute--totally worth the wait!
I just scored a beautiful white vee neck Tahari tee for $5 at Marshalls very similar to yours. I don't own any shorts, but will try the cute partial tuck with a pair o' ankle pants :)
nice look!
Oh, how I adore your nautical looks! Those shorts are adorable, and I'm sure you'll be able to transition them into fall with some tights in a clever way, since you're super clever and all. :D
That necklace is so pretty, too! I've been wanting some anchor earrings... Lyddie, your style is influencing me to buy things, I swear!
I LOVE those shorts!!!

Well I never saw these at all at my Old Navy because I so would have snatched these up!
&& I did not use any external lighting! I just put him on a piece of white paper outside and increased the brightness on my computer a lot to edit them. :D
love the nautical theme with the hat, anchor, rope, and stripes!
What a great look on you! The necklace is gorgeous! I've a few magazines that I just bought yesterday to give a good "browse," and read through! :) Have a nice w/e.
Casual chic at its finest!! The addition of the rope bracelet and tote bag just put it over the top.
Have a great weekend.
Love how you kept this look simple with the white tee and shorts. Perfect for a day at the beach.

I also have to wait for what seems like forever for oldnavy.com shipments! Love the look! Are those bows on your sandals?
Lovely shorts. I heart your anchor necklace.
I love the hat!

Thank you for visiting our blog. I love your colors! Great page.
Absolutely stunning. Nautical styling always looks so chic
Just saw these when I was in the store with Nnenna! Old Navy had some really good shorts this year.
You need to be on a boat, for real. Or at a lobster bake in Maine.
I absolutly adore how you styled these shorts... The bracelet and necklace are amazing details! I've always been quite fond of the sailor look for summer :)

I am so jealous that you found these shorts! I looked for striped shorts all summer and came up with nothing. Lame! They are super cute on you.

it´s great to see many good ideas.
I love this last day of summer look. I made the knotted bracelets all summer long after you sent me instructions, but none of mine turned out as lovely as the one you are wearing.
nice shorts <3
White tee and striped shorts,this look can do no wrong!
What a lovely necklace!
Seriously - where did August or summer in general go! I am trying to savor every last drop, and am going to have a hard time letting my nautical fashions go come Fall/Winter. Loving these shorts on you -such chic styling!
