Shannon Marie : Fashioned in Anchors

I've been walking down to this monument for as long as I can remember and I just recently noticed the giant anchor on the side of the monument. You can imagine my excitement, especially since my outfit was decked out in anchors from my shirt, to my belt, to my Kiel James Patrick bracelet. I don't remember the last day where I was not wearing at least one anchor. It's just one of those things that I have to have near me everyday.

I recently found these red chino shorts on sale at J.Crew and was itching to pair them with my striped anchor shirt (also from J.Crew - C'mon now I did attend J.Crew U). Although I consider myself patriotic and love me some red, white, and blue, I decided to add some turquoise and mint to freshen the look up a bit. My blush bag was the perfect neutral to even out all the different colors. It makes me happy to feel so nautical down by the city's boat club. Too bad I couldn't hang out here everyday!
