I’m loving this style right now. The style is kind of “nautical”, but not quite. The colors and textures are there, but none of the typical nautical motifs. Here’s a few of my favorite rooms designed in similar style; but first:

I’ve been smitten with this bedding ever since I spotted it in an ad in Lonny a good while ago. It’s designed by Ralph Lauren, who took the tie dye to the next level and named it Indigo Modern. Best of all: It’s on sale at Dillards!

The color combination of white and navy blue is stunning. Looks clean and remind me of summer, tropical hotels and sailboats.

The collection has a lot of gorgeous patterns and textures to choose from, so the final result is up to you!

Beautiful blue herringbone fabric. I’m pretty sure that’s actually a chevron pattern, but if the people at Ralph Lauren calls it herringbone, I certainly won’t argue.

These tie dyed pieces are my favorite, I love it combined with the blue “herringbone” print.

So what do you think about this color combination? Is it something you could live with, or would the contrast be too stark?

This Beautiful bedroom is designed by Jerry Jacobs. Doesn’t that headboard look spectacular with the deep blue wall color?

Striped Bedding, Morocco Headboard, Striped Rug, Red Coral Prints, White Lamp, Bedside Table, Red Corals.
Great design for a guest bedroom or a teen boy bedroom.

The paint color is Benjamin Moore Japan.

This gorgeous nautical design is actually in a real yacht, believe it on not. All walls and built-in furniture is clad in glossy wood panels. The color scheme is consistent throughout, constituting crisp white, charcoal gray and a fresh and fun saffron:

Remember this post? Well, here is another excellent example of how to do the nautical style in a subtle way:
*
Cream and navy blue living room. One detail that makes a great difference in adding a nautical feel is wood paneling half or one fourth of the way up to the ceiling. Keeping the Background light and accessorizing with navy blue does the trick.
*
A perfect mix of clean color surfaces and pattern is key. Stripes and plaid are both great for the nautical theme. When mixing pattern, be sure to pick very different patterns to go together, not two different striped patterns, but rather one striped and one checkered.
*
White and navy blue kitchen.
*
This blue and white nautical kids bedroom is just perfect! Double bunk beds. Check out the bed-lights.

Hardwood floors, sisal carpets and rattan ottoman all bring in the element of wooden boat. The white and navy blue bed linen brings just the right touch of nautical. Oh, and the world map wallpaper is fantastic!!
