It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of The Yacht Week. Sailing with your closest friends for a week with crystal blue waters, beautiful islands, delicious food and amazing parties is the ultimate summer getaway. I’ll be setting sail with my closest girlfriends for The Yacht Week Italy this summer and have sailing style on my mind.
The Yacht Week is more than just silly costumes!
I teamed up with my favorite fashion blogger, Sara Libby, to put together some style inspiration and help you know what to pack for The Yacht Week and your travels this summer. Whether you’re sailing the Mediterranean on The Yacht Week, hitting the beach or exploring the port towns of an island destination, these nautical outfits are perfect for your sun-soaked summer vacation!
Be sure to check out our The Yacht Week Style Inspiration video teaser!

What kind of camera did you use for this photoshoot? I’m looking to buy a camera to take better pictures for my blog but not really sure what to look for! Thanks! 🙂
I JUST got the Panasonic Lumix GF6 which is what we shot the video with. The photos are a mix of shots from my camera and Sara’s Canon Rebel xsi
You look gorgeous as always. I wanna go to Yacht week which means I should really be spending time with some billionaires
Thanks Carissa! lol! You don’t need to be a billionaire silly. I’ve got 7 girls coming with me this summer on TYW Italy. Just gotta plan ahead. Worst case scenario, you enter my giveaway and win a trip to join my boat! 😉
