Your Fella Will Love You In Stella

TheFind.com Dishes on Stella's Nautical Dress!

A Swimming Good Time
This year, the nautical theme continues. It's one of my favorite spring/summer trends and I'm thrilled that it's still on runways. We've got shoes, sailor pants, blue and white striped boat necked tops, all with different, updated twists on the seasons' favorite sea-fearing theme. Something about the crisp combination of whites, reds and blues, the patterns the style lends itself to is nothing short of fun to shop for and enjoyable to wear.
So imagine my delight when I stumbled on this Stella McCartney dress. It's whimsical and could almost qualify as art work. I love the deep blue color and the way the waves curl around the sailboats, how the boats float up into the sky of the dress.
Great designers like Stella have a way of making you feel like you're not only wearing something that's fashionably indulgent, you're putting on something that's an artistic indulgence as well.Look great in this fabulous Stella MaCartney dress! Be Sure to Check out www.thefind.com
