17 Items from Gap and Old Navy that evoke a chic Saint-Tropez yacht vibe
In a world where many of us are dreaming of a getaway, Erin Fitzpatrick, the Associate Director of Fashion News, is living vicariously through those traveling to Europe. She's curated an assortment of French Riviera-inspired pieces from Old Navy and Gap, inviting readers to join her in a fashionable escapade.
This summer, Fitzpatrick has been keeping her passport dormant, but her wardrobe is bursting with vibrant and chic finds. One of her favourites is the Gap Poplin Roll-Cuff Midi Shirtdress, a timeless piece that exudes elegance. She also finds the Gap Shirred Bodice Halter Maxi Dress trendy, with its polka dot pattern adding a playful touch.
White is the colour of the season, and Fitzpatrick has embraced it wholeheartedly. The Gap Modern Rib Halter Tank Top, with its white trim, catches her eye, while the Old Navy High-Waisted OG Jean Shorts offer versatility in styling. For those seeking a more laid-back look, the Old Navy Extra High-Waisted Wide-Leg Jeans are considered fresh.
Capri pants are back in fashion, and Fitzpatrick approves. She pairs them with the Old Navy Off-Shoulder Lace-Trim Top, creating an elegant ensemble. For a more casual vibe, the Gap Denim Mini Dress can be layered with a white T-shirt.
Fitzpatrick believes in the power of layering, and the Gap Cropped Cardigan Sweater Vest makes an excellent summer layering piece. She also finds an oversized rugby polo, such as the Old Navy Oversized Rugby Polo, perfect for a relaxed yet stylish look.
White shorts can be styled in numerous ways, and Fitzpatrick demonstrates this with her choice of the Old Navy High-Waisted Weekender Pull-On Crop Flare Jeans. Bermuda shorts, like the Old Navy Mid-Rise Baggy Jean Bermuda Shorts, are also trending, offering a fun and flirty option.
Fitzpatrick's ideal beach bag is the Gap Canvas Stripe Tote Bag, spacious enough to hold all her vacation essentials. When it comes to evening wear, she recommends the Gap Lace-Trim Maxi Dress, suitable for a yacht party.
Fitzpatrick graduated magna cum laude from USC and brings her passion for fashion to her work. She encourages readers to dress for the vacation they want, not their current job, and invites them to join her in embracing the French Riviera vibe this season.
