Featured: Nautical Dress Tutorial

July 21, 2013 by Heather Damron

The Sail Away School Dress is such a sweet little getup…and perfect for back to school! Stripes and anything nautical is totally on trend right now…and honestly? I don’t think it ever really goes out of style. Definitely a classic.

If you’d like to make one of your own, there’s a really wonderful tutorial by At Second Street. I’m pretty sure this will become a dress she’ll cherish for years to come…an heirloom piece!
