Attending A Boat Or Yacht Party? Try One Of These 8 Chic Outfits

If you have no idea what to wear to a boat or yacht party, check out this helpful guide for the best outfit ideas and tips on dress code.

If you tend to vacation around coastal towns, chances are that you will be invited to a boat party one weekend or another. Whether it’s a luxurious yacht soiree, a casual boat gathering, or a glamorous sailing affair, you’re in for a great time. But as you embark on this nautical adventure, one question looms large: What should you wear?

Dressing appropriately for such events requires a delicate balance between comfort, functionality, and, perhaps most importantly, style. With the shimmering sea as your backdrop, you want to look effortlessly chic without trying too hard. To help you navigate your boat or yacht party in style, we have curated this guide on what to wear to a boat or yacht party, ensuring you can make a grand entrance and set sail in style.

Chic Boat Party Outfits

1. linen, cotton and tencel dresses.

We highly recommend wearing lightweight clothes made from natural fibers like linen, tencel and cotton for your boat or yacht day trip. All of them are highly breathable, allowing air circulation and preventing you from feeling overheated in the sun or during energetic activities onboard.

In addition to this, they have great moisture-wicking properties, which means that any sweat or water on your clothes quickly evaporates, keeping you cool and dry.

While you can opt for any colors you want, light colors are especially popular in the heat of the sun, as well as nautical colors like light blue and navy, which echo the color scheme of open waters around you.

2. Wide Leg Pants

  Wide-leg pants are our favorite bottoms to wear during the summer, and boat parties are no different.

These elegant pants can be dressed up with elegant tops and a designer party bag for a chic look, or more casually with your favorite bikini top, a crop top, or a linen tank top. For ultimate comfort, stick to light colors and breathable materials like tencel, linen, and rayon.

3. Swimsuit + Shorts

To make taking a dip in the ocean easy and effortless, why not layer a pair of shorts over your swimsuit? Using the swimsuit or bikini as a top means you just need to take off your shorts when you want to jump into the sea – also, there are so many cute swimsuits that you just don’t want to cover up.

This shiny cocoa brown swimsuit has been styled with tailored camel shorts and a white cardigan to protect your shoulders from the sun.

4. Matching Sets

A matching set is an easy, fail-safe way to create a cute summery outfit that is perfect for a boat party. This matching set is all-white and includes a strapless, bandeau-style top, a midi skirt, and a cropped bolero-style cardigan, but you could go for any smart and chic matching set that perfectly suits your personal style.

Finish with sandals to slip on and off and sunglasses – keep jewelry to a minimum in case you take a dip in the sea.

5. Crochet Dresses

Crochet dresses are super stylish at the moment and will help you keep cool during the warmer weather too – just what you need if you are heading to a boat party.

The open weave of a crochet dress means they are great for keeping cool, plus, there are loads of different crochet dresses to choose from so you can easily find one that suits you. They also look incredible layered over a swimsuit and you just need a pair of sandals to finish the outfit.

6. Opulent Silk

If the boat party you are heading to is in the evening, then opulent silk and satin are exactly what you need. A silk or satin skirt is a great way to start a sophisticated outfit, then just style with a t-shirt or cropped top for a relaxed look or a sparkling sequined top for something a little more glam.

This shimmering blue silk maxi skirt looks incredible with the blue sequin crop top, both of which shine under the night sky lights for a striking look.

7. Light, neutral tones

Sticking to light, neutral tones is always a good idea during the summer months, and will perfectly suit a boat party aesthetic. White, ivory, and light beige shades will reflect the sunlight, helping you to stay cool.

This chic neutral outfit includes a beige bikini top, a white cotton skirt, black and gold sunglasses, gold starfish earrings, and a summery raffia bag to create a stunning, refined outfit that is perfect for heading out on a boat.

8. Figure-Hugging Long Dresses

For ultimate elegance, go for a figure-embracing maxi dress. Not only are they more practical than sorter dresses that may get down by the wind, but they’re also more glamorous as you glide along the deck.

While a voluminous flowy dress will look amazing blowing in the wind, it can get annoying very quickly. For daytime affairs, opt for a casual rib-knit dress, and for fancier yacht parties or black tie events, a long cocktail dress with more striking designs.

Other Essentials To Bring To A Boat Party

1. your swimsuit.

Firstly, it’s not a boat party without swimming! Don’t forget to bring your favorite bathing suit with you.

2. Suncream

It also pays to protect your skin from the sun, so pack your sunblock in your bag. A good sunblock should be at least SPF 30, since SPF 30 can block about 97% of the sun’s harmful UV rays. Make sure to reapply your suncream every 2 hours you spend in the sun for optimal protection.

3. Protective Accessories

It goes without saying, but don’t attend a boat party without a good pair of sunglasses . The sun is especially strong in the open sea as it reflects off of water, and you don’t want to spend your day squinting.

In addition to sunglasses, also consider bringing a stylish hat that protects your face and scalp. Whether you opt for a wide-brimmed hat, a floppy sun hat, a straw hat or a sporty cap, it serves as a barrier against the sun, reducing the risk of sunburn and discomfort.

4. Beach Towel

Some yachts and bigger boats will be equipped with beach towels for guests, but this is not a given. If you think you’ll be going in for a dip, pack a beach towel in your beach tote before you set off.

Now that we’ve gone over some of the best things to wear for yacht and boat parties, let’s also take a look at clothing to avoid.

What Not To Wear To A Boat Party

How you dress for a boat party is very different to what you wear on land. What looks good in a rooftop bar might not be appropriate for a yacht, so keep these things in mind when putting together your outfit:

1. High heels 

Stilettos with a sharp heel are a bit of a hazard on a moving boat; not only are you less stable when wearing them, the heel itself can also get stuck in gaps or grates on the deck, which can damage your shoes.

To be on the safe side, opt for comfortable flat sandals, boat shoes, or espadrilles, or take your shoes off entirely!

If you’re attending a dressy occasion in the evening, consider wearing platform wedges that look polished but are easy to walk in.

2. Fabrics That Make You Sweat

Avoid fibers and materials like acrylic, polyester, denim, and spandex that will make you sweat, and silk, which has moisture-wicking properties, but will not hide sweat stains.

Instead, opt for breathable fibers like cotton, linen, rayon, viscose, jersey, chambray and tencel, especially if you’re attending a boat party during the daytime.

3. Skin Tight clothing (If you’re swimming)

If you know that you’ll be swimming, avoid wearing tight clothing, as there’s nothing more uncomfortable than having to put your tight clothes back on when you have wet skin. Also, what looks good dry might not look as great when it’s all soaked in water and sticking to your skin.

Opt for clothes that are loose enough that they won’t cling to you and that allow the wind’s breeze to flow through them. Alternatively, you can always bring a change of clothes if you have a tight outfit that you definitely want to wear on your boat ride.

What to Wear on a Yacht: Outfits That are gonna steal the Show

I only recommend products I love and I think you will, too. If you click on links I provide, I may receive a little compensation. Learn more .

So you’ve finally been invited on a yacht! The word yacht in itself is so luxurious that when you get an invite to a yacht party, no matter if it’s your first time or you’re a seasoned pro, the first thing would not be what to pack, but what do I freakin’ wear to that!

While there are many different types of boat parties, with different yacht dress codes – from casual to black-tie, there are some general rules to help build a yacht outfit that will help you be appropriately dressed for the occasion.

So let’s hop onto all the info you’ll need to enjoy the ocean’s breeze, see stunning views, and eat amazing food and fine drinks – all while creating memories with your loved ones! 

How should I dress for a yacht?

First off, think comfort meets chic. Yacht casual attire is your go-to vibe. You want to look good (obviously!), but you also want to be able to move around easily. Opt for lightweight, breathable fabrics that keep you cool under the sun.

Linen shirts, breezy dresses, and flowy kaftans are your best friends. Their mission? To keep you looking fabulous without breaking a sweat. Mission possible!

For hot days, opt for light, flowy attire, swimsuits, and cool cover-ups. If it’s chilly, layer up, and always carry a cozy item, as sea nights can be cold. Activities on-board? Choose pieces that won’t weigh you down in water sports.

What to wear on a yacht?

Party at a yacht? Check if it’s formal or casual first. Usually, yachts lean towards semi-formal – think men in slacks, khakis, or tailored shorts with a polo or light shirt, ladies in sundresses, chic jumpsuits, or classy shorts paired with cute tops.

When in doubt, dress up! You can always shed layers if it’s too warm. But if it’s casual, feel free to wear what makes you comfy and ready to party on the yacht!

What is yacht casual attire?

Yacht casual is all about looking effortlessly put together. It’s more relaxed than business casual but classier than your average backyard BBQ ensemble. Think comfortable yet stylish pieces that are versatile for lounging, dining, or taking part in activities on board.

What should you not wear on a yacht?

High heels are a big no-no. They’re not only impractical but can also damage the yacht’s deck. Leave the stilettos at home, ladies!

For formal parties, keep it classy, not casual or skimpy. Save your bikinis and cutoffs when it’s just your crew for some yacht fun.

Just steer clear of any clothing that could scratch the deck or furniture. And remember, avoid sitting on white furniture with wet clothes—no one likes unsightly stains!

Now, let’s see all the hot yacht outfits you can adorn!

1. scarf top + pants.

Haven’t you seen the 100 Ways to Style Scarf videos? I bet everyone has! They are such a huge trend and so perfect for carrying to your yacht party, either as a headband or as a top like this.

When paired with classic white pants, you’ll have a semi-formal yacht outfit to call a day! It’s just so cute and unique.

2. vibrant swimwear dress

You’ll see all kinds of swimwear on the yacht, but a dress will certainly get you all the eyes – for good! Pick a trendy, vibrant color like this one to create a sizzling hot but also fun outfit.

3. bikini with denim shorts / long skirt cover-up

The easiest yet most versatile outfit to wear on a yacht has to be denim shorts and a bikini top. You just cannot go wrong with this, no matter what occasion the party is for!

Another fun and stylish yacht outfit would be to pair your bikini with a midi mesh skirt. They are always a hit and look effortless.

4. sparkling blazer suit over bikini

No idea what to wear to a yacht party at night? How about a dazzling blazer suit like this over your swimsuit top? Sparkles are always in for the night, and let’s just say a nighttime yacht party outfit would be incomplete without a bikini, right?

5. flowy sundress

They rightly say, if in doubt, wear a sundress! And that they are me and my fashion choices, hehe.

No, but seriously, a flowy, breezy dress is perfect for a day out on a yacht. It lets you stay cool, and you can easily wear it on a bikini for sudden water activities 😉

6. high-low printed skirt

Another effortless yachting attire that speaks sexy and classy at the same time would be a halter neck top paired with a printed high-low skirt. I mean, look at this; I can’t even…

8. ditsy printed skirt set

Ditsy prints are all over the internet. And why not? They make a really cute day outfit for many occasions. May it be brunch, running errands, or a yacht party, you know you’ll love it for everything!

9. shorts co-ord set

There’s nothing better than a comfy co-ord set over a bikini that you can remove at any time. And no doubt it’s stylish and makes a beautiful yachting outfit.

10. low-cute jumpsuit

Oh, I love jumpsuits. They are such a pretty way to elevate an attire without mixing and matching much. Choose an alluring jumpsuit because it will work for formal as well as informal boat parties.

11. sexy two-piece set

If sizzling hot is on the menu, why not try a sexy two-piece skirt and top set for a change? It’s something that is gonna make heads turn, like 360 degrees! 😉

12. flare pants with a bralette top

Add a fun but stylish flair to your yachting dress with flair pants, a sexy halter neck top, and a cover-up jacket. It’s impossible not to make a statement with this attire.

13. bikini top with straight-leg pants

Want an easy yacht attire that looks sexy and effortless? Guess a bikini top and pants are here to the rescue! Also, I recommend you wear flat shoes at boat parties as they will be way more comfortable.

14. huge statement cover-up

If nothing works, throw on a statement cover-up piece on a bikini or denim shorts, and you’ll be good to rock the scene like a pro!

15. flowy wrap dress

Wrap dresses are my newfound love. And they are even perfect for yachts because of how easily you can remove them to be in your swimsuit after. Don’t forget sunglasses and hats for that added flair!

16. knotted blouse with a mini skirt

White is such a yachty color (I know that’s not a word, but you get the vibe, right?) Go get yourself a white blouse and mini skirt set. It’s feminine and looks smart.

17. one-piece swimsuit or a cute bikini set

Of course, is a yacht party even complete without a sexy/cute swimsuit? Either one piece or two, you have to carry 1-2 swimwear to your yacht party no matter what. You can never have too many!

18. mesh set over a bikini

A dress is all cute until a mesh co-ord set comes into play! It’s one of the trendiest yacht outfits ever and has the perfect amount of exposure.

19. a sundress

Talk about a sundress with me all day! It is light and airy, making it perfect for hot weather. Not only that, but it also looks very stylish and feminine, making it just the yachting attire you need for a day out on the water.

20. the vibrant long skirt set

And don’t forget to add color to your outfit. A long skirt co-ord set is the way to go about that!

What to pack for a Yacht Trip?

Packing for a yacht trip is all about being prepared for any scenario. Sunscreen? Check! Sunglasses? Double check! A hat to protect your fabulous face from the sun? Absolutely. And don’t forget a stylish cover-up for when the sun decides to play hide and seek. Also, a light jacket or wrap for those breezy evening sails is a smart move!

Other essentials to remember are –

• Travel Documents – If you are traveling abroad, you will need your passport, visa, and maybe even proof of a return ticket depending on where you go to
• Clothing – Swimwear, sundress, t-shirts, sunglasses, a hat or a cap, shorts, tank top, flats, sandals
• An Adapter – You may need one for your charger since different countries have different power sources
• External battery – Getting a battery that lasts up to 3-4 recharges is ideal since you can get to carry it with you anywhere you go
• Bathroom essentials and cosmetics (leave out insect repellents that can be bought there)
• Dry bags – to cover your belongings 

wrapping up what to wear on a yacht

What to Wear to a Yacht Party? 21 Outfit Ideas

The summer season is in full swing, so are the best ways to celebrate this particular season. When I think of summer, my mind immediately jumps to pool parties, beaches, swimsuits, cool breeze by the ocean, beach waves, and everything fantastic.

Along with all those, boat parties are becoming increasingly popular among all age groups for all the right reasons, whether it be a cruise, fancy dinner, get-togethers with the folks, dinner dates, or a bachelorette affair. And dressing your part is the most crucial detail you can not compromise on!

Styling Tips for a Boat Party:

• The most important tip is to dress according to the occasion on the boat. Is it a casual cruise, fancy cruise, bachelorette, wedding, or simply a fun gathering with friends? The possibilities are endless; thus, the appropriate course of action would be to dress fancy if the occasion calls for it; and casual if the affair is chill and laidback.
• Wear shades of whites, ivory, and creams, topped with a pop of colour here and there!
• Do not forget your sunhat and glasses back home!
• Also, sunscreen! Probably the essential item to carry unless you wish to be toasted.
• Kimonos, oversized tee shirts would be helpful if you plan on wearing a swimsuit to the event.
• Please do not forget a cardigan or sweater! You never know when it might start getting chilly.
• Take your outfit to the next level by blending textures, including solid pieces and some printed/ striped ones.

Inside: Amazing yacht party outfit ideas that you need to sea

So…you’ve been invited to a yacht party…welcome aboard! As someone who has had the pleasure of sailing the seas and attending my fair share of glamorous yacht gatherings, I can’t help but get excited about sharing some fabulous outfit ideas with you all.

Yacht parties are undoubtedly the epitome of sophistication and style, and choosing the perfect ensemble is a delightful part of the experience. Whether you’re a seasoned sailor or a first-time deck adventurer, I’ve got some fantastic insights on how to dress to impress while maintaining comfort and charm.

So, let’s set sail on a fashion journey together and discover the chicest and most awe-inspiring yacht party outfits that will make waves and leave a lasting impression on everyone aboard! I am going to be adding these to my 20th birthday outfit ideas , because they are just perfect.

Table of Contents

Epic Yacht Party Outfit Ideas + Tips

Before I show you some examples of amazing yacht party outfits, I wanted to go over some of my top tips. This way, these can be fresh in your mind as you go through looking for inspiration!

1. Nautical Chic

Embrace the maritime theme by opting for nautical-inspired attire. A classic white and navy striped shirt paired with well-fitted khaki or white shorts or trousers can create a stylish and relaxed look.

If you are thinking about going a little more dressy, then you can always wear an evening gown that fits under this theme as well! I think the ideas below will help you find what style you are looking for.

2. Light and Breezy

Take it from me…since you’ll be out on the water, comfort is key. You need to choose lightweight and breathable fabrics like linen, cotton, or chambray to stay cool and composed even in the summer sun. I genuinly cannot push this point enough. You absolutely want to be stylish…but you also need to be practical.

Lucky for you, practicality and style actually do have many lines that intersect.

3. Dress to Impress

If the yacht party calls for a more formal dress code, consider a classy sundress for ladies or a tailored blazer over a crisp button-down shirt for gentlemen. It strikes the perfect balance between elegance and leisure. I love any excuse to dress up, so whenever I get invited to a fancier party, I really take advantage of it.

4. Hats and Sunglasses

This one is a subsection attached to tip number two. You are going to be on a boat, so you are going to want to include a cute hat and some sunnies. You can protect yourself from the sun while adding a touch of glamor with a wide-brimmed hat and a stylish pair of sunglasses that match your outfit.

Not only do they serve as practical accessories, but they also exude an air of sophistication. If you are going with your parents, you can look at these mom daughter matching outfits!

5. Deck Shoes or Sandals

Leave the stilettos and heavy boots at home! Opt for comfortable deck shoes or trendy sandals, as they are both practical and in line with the yacht ambiance. I once wore heels on a yacht and went home 4 hours later with the worst blisters I have ever had in my life.

Plus, with all of the swaying, I found myself exhausted from just standing in my heels. This is definitely not the vibe you want to bring to a party.

6. Accessorize Minimally

Keep your accessories simple and minimalistic. A statement piece like a beautiful necklace or a stylish bracelet can add that extra touch to your outfit without being too overpowering.

If you have too many accessories, you may find yourself on the more high-maintenance side. If you are up for that, then you go for it.

7. Neutral and Pastel Colors

Embrace the coastal vibe with a palette of soft and breezy colors. Think whites, pastel blues, seafoam greens, and sandy beiges for a fresh and sophisticated look. If you couldn’t tell already…the whole goal you are going for is sophistication. I mean, this is true for most yacht parties, but it does depend on the person throwing it.

Yacht Party Outfit Ideas –  8. Versatility is Key

Yacht parties often involve different settings, from lounging on the deck to dancing in the evening. Choose outfits that can transition seamlessly from day to night with a few adjustments. There are quite a few outfits like this below, so make sure you keep an eye out for them.

9. Layer Up

Evenings on the water can get a bit chilly, so be prepared by bringing along a lightweight cardigan or a stylish jacket that complements your outfit. This might feel a little counterintuitive, but at the end of the day, I just want you to be comfortable. I have spent one too many nights uncomfortable on a boat. Life is too short!

Yacht Party Outfit Ideas  10. Confidence

Above all, wear your outfit with confidence and a smile! Your attitude is the ultimate accessory, and it’ll radiate positivity and charm throughout the entire yacht party. I think if you listen to all of my tips and tricks from above, you are going to show up to this party the most comfy and confident version of yourself.

I recommend saying some simple affirmations to yourself before you leave your house. You are the life of the party. Everyone loves you. And, of course, you’re outfit rocks!

What to Wear on a Yacht in 2023: A Smart Fashion Guide

Introduction:

Planning a yacht trip? Before you embark on your nautical adventure, you’re likely to ask yourself: what to wear on a yacht? Whether you’re attending a glamorous yacht party, cruising the open waters, or basking in the sun on the deck, dressing appropriately and stylishly is key. In this comprehensive fashion guide, we’ll navigate through the latest trends and timeless classics to help you find the perfect yacht-worthy attire. So, let’s dive in and discover what to wear on a yacht!

Opt for Nautical-Inspired Outfits:

To blend seamlessly with the maritime ambiance, consider incorporating nautical-inspired elements into your attire. Classic navy and white stripes, anchor motifs, and crisp blue hues evoke a sense of timeless elegance. Choose a Breton striped top paired with white shorts or a navy blue dress for a chic, effortless look.

Embrace Light and Breezy Fabrics:

Yacht trips often involve warm weather and plenty of sun, so it’s crucial to choose fabrics that keep you cool and comfortable. Opt for lightweight and breathable materials like linen, cotton, and silk. These fabrics allow air to circulate, ensuring you stay fresh and stylish even in the heat.

Don Stylish Swimwear:

When packing for your yacht adventure, be sure to include stylish swimwear. Opt for high-quality swimsuits that flatter your figure and make you feel confident. Classic one-pieces or trendy bikinis in vibrant colors or chic patterns are always a good choice. Don’t forget to pack a stylish cover-up or kaftan for when you’re not in the water.

Don’t Forget Sun Protection:

When it comes to what to wear on a yacht, protecting your skin from the sun’s harmful rays is essential, especially when spending long hours on a yacht. Incorporate accessories like wide-brimmed hats, sunglasses with UV protection, and lightweight scarves to shield your face and neck. Additionally, don’t forget to apply sunscreen with a high SPF to exposed areas of your skin.

Choose Comfortable Footwear:

Opt for footwear that balances comfort and style. Deck shoes, boat shoes, or espadrilles are excellent choices for their non-slip soles and maritime aesthetics. If you prefer sandals, opt for ones with good arch support and secure straps. Avoid high heels as they can be impractical and unsafe on a moving yacht.

Layer Up with Versatile Pieces:

Yacht trips often entail varying weather conditions, so it’s wise to bring versatile clothing items that can be layered. Lightweight cardigans, wraps, or linen shirts can be easily thrown over your outfit if the weather gets cooler or for protection against evening breezes.

Dress Smartly for Evening Affairs:

If you’re attending a yacht party or planning a special evening event on board , embrace a more sophisticated attire. Opt for elegant cocktail dresses, tailored linen suits, or stylish jumpsuits. Remember to choose breathable fabrics to ensure your comfort throughout the night.

Conclusion:

When it comes to what to wear on a yacht, striking a balance between style, comfort, and practicality is key. Nautical-inspired outfits, light and breathable fabrics, stylish swimwear, and sun protection essentials should be at the top of your packing list. Additionally, comfortable footwear and versatile layering pieces will ensure you’re prepared for any weather conditions. By following this fashion guide, you’ll be ready to sail the seas in style, exuding confidence and elegance during your yacht adventure!

What Should I Wear to a Yacht Party?

The date is set, and your RSVP is confirmed. And you’ve likely spread the word that you’ll soon be attending a party on a yacht in Marina del Rey (because why wouldn’t you?).

But the question still remains…What do you wear?

At FantaSea Yachts, we often hear this from clients hosting an event aboard one of our luxury yachts. Our answer is simple – it depends on the party and the time of day. We’ve compiled a few tips to jumpstart your yacht party inspo board. 

What do I wear to a daytime yacht event?

When the sun is out, it’s a great time to play on the water. We’ve planned countless celebrations – brunches, lunchtime events, and casual cruises – for different groups during the day. All guest attire tends to be similar. Breezy. Light. Think linen pants or jackets, flowing dresses, polo or oxford shirts… relaxed but stylish. This is your chance to dress differently than your normal attire; leave the jeans, t-shirts, leggings, and board shorts at home, and impress your fellow partygoers with a well-put-together outfit. It never hurts to sport a nautical-themed look (navy stripes and gold accents, included) to pay homage to the setting. Don’t think of it as gimmicky – it’s part of the fun! If you’re looking for nautical inspiration, check out this article, 12 Ultra Cute Ways to Wear Nautical-Inspired Clothes.  

For daytime yacht parties, we recommend flat shoes, strappy sandals, low wedges for the ladies, and a pair of classic loafers for the gentlemen. 

What do I wear to a nighttime yacht party?

Whether it’s a boat wedding , milestone bash , or company party , nighttime yacht parties are always magical. From twinkling lights to starry skies, the moment you step onto one of our rooftop sky decks prepared to be WOWED. And that in itself is more than enough reason to dress up extra special. 

Nighttime parties are great for cocktail dresses and semi-formal attire. Ladies, you don’t want to wear anything too long to avoid someone stepping on your dress or your shoe getting caught on the fabric. Go for comfortable glamor. If you opt for a cocktail dress, make sure the length is appropriate. Have fun accessorizing with statement jewelry and your favorite clutch or small shoulder bag (avoid a large tote or purse for an ultra-chic look).

For men, simplicity is the name of the game. Unless the event calls for formal attire, steer away from a tuxedo. Top options include a classic suit, dress slacks with a nice blazer and tie, or dress slacks with a sports coat and tie. Not sure what the difference is between a suit jacket, blazer, and sports coat? This Jos.A.Bank article breaks it down . 

Of course, if your celebration is a yacht wedding , that will bring into account a more specific set of dressing dos and don’ts. Often formal attire will be the norm, but you should always ask your friends who are hosting their wedding on a yacht to see if the ceremony and reception is formal or casual.

Similarly, if the affair is a birthday yacht rental , then check with the hosts to learn if they are planning a unique theme that would require a specific fashion statement.  

What should I always take to a celebration on a  yacht?

There are two stand-out answers to this question: A light sweater or jacket (it’s always cooler on the water), and your favorite pair of sunglasses. Other considerations include sunscreen, a fashionable hat, hair ties (in case it’s too breezy), and lip balm or chapstick. People often ask if motion sickness medication is needed. Our answer is no. The great thing about our cruises is that we stay in the Marina del Rey harbor and don’t go past the breakwater. This eliminates any wave activity (there are NO waves), which makes for an easy, smooth ride. There is virtually no risk of seasickness or motion sickness cruising these calm waters.

What not to wear to a yacht party?

This may seem obvious, but high heels or stilettos are probably the least popular accessory on ANY yacht cruise – day OR night. We also recommended avoiding super casual flip-flops as the look can appear sloppy.

FAQ for Yacht Party Attire Essentials

1. what essentials should i bring to a yacht party.

Always bring a light sweater or jacket, as it tends to be cooler on the water, and your favorite sunglasses. Other useful items include sunscreen, a fashionable hat, hair ties, and lip balm. Motion sickness medication is generally not needed for our smooth Marina del Rey harbor cruises, which experience no wave activity

2. Are there any specific accessories I should bring to a yacht party?

Yes, essential accessories for a yacht party include a light sweater or jacket, as it can be cooler on the water, and sunglasses. Additionally, consider bringing sunscreen, a fashionable hat, hair ties, and lip balm. Avoid large bags; a small clutch or shoulder bag is ideal.

3. What types of shoes are appropriate for a yacht party?

For yacht parties, choose flat shoes, strappy sandals, or low wedges for women, and classic loafers for men. Avoid high heels or stilettos, as they are impractical on a yacht, and steer clear of casual flip-flops for a more polished look.

Ahoy, partygoers! With summer just around the corner, boat parties are a popular way to soak up the sun and enjoy the water with friends and family. Whether you’re headed for a sunset cruise, a yacht party, or a casual gathering on a pontoon boat, one question remains: what should you wear?

Dressing for boat parties requires careful consideration of both style and practicality. You want to look chic and on-trend while also being comfortable and ready for any maritime adventures that come your way. In this blog post, we’ll explore what to wear to a boat party to help you make a fashion splash on the high seas.

Before we dive into the various outfit ideas you can wear to yacht parties, let’s cover some great tips to keep in mind. These would help you choose the perfect outfit for your boat ride.

How to Choose the Best Outfit for a Boat Party

1. Opt for Nautical-Inspired Clothing

When it comes to boat parties, nautical-inspired clothing is always a safe bet. Think classic navy and white stripes, anchor prints, and maritime-themed accessories. These styles are not only timeless but also perfectly capture the essence of a boat party.

You can’t go wrong with a striped tee paired with white shorts or a navy dress with red or white stripes. Nautical-inspired clothing gives a nod to the maritime setting and adds a touch of elegance to your boat party outfit.

2. Choose Light and Breathable Fabrics

Boat parties can get hot and humid, especially during the summer months, so it’s important to choose light and breathable fabrics for your outfit. Opt for natural fibers like cotton, linen, and silk that allow air to circulate and wick away moisture from your skin, keeping you cool and comfortable.

Avoid heavy fabrics like wool or polyester that can make you feel sweaty and uncomfortable in the heat. A flowy maxi dress, lightweight romper, and linen shirt are all excellent options that combine style and comfort for a boat party.

3. Wear Comfortable Footwear

When it comes to footwear for a boat party, comfort and functionality should be your top priorities. You’ll be moving around on a boat, which can be slippery, so it’s essential to wear shoes that provide good traction. Opt for boat shoes, espadrilles, or sandals with non-slip soles that will keep you steady on your feet.

Avoid high heels or any footwear that can easily slip off, as they can be hazardous on a boat. Unless of course you’re celebrating a special occasion on a luxury yacht. Formal wear can be paired with heels for a chic yacht party outfit. You may also want to bring a pair of flip-flops or water shoes for when you want to dip your toes in the water or walk on the beach.

4. Layer Up for Changing Weather

Weather conditions on the water can change rapidly, so it’s important to be prepared by layering up. Even on a sunny day, the wind can pick up, and the temperature can drop when you’re out on the open water. Bring a light jacket, cardigan, or denim jacket that you can easily throw on if the weather turns cool.

Scarves are also a great accessory that can add warmth and style to your boat party outfit. Opt for lightweight and versatile layers that you can easily take off or put on as needed to stay comfortable throughout the day or evening. A light cardigan or shawl is a great option to pair with a cocktail dress or button-down shirt.

5. Embrace Sun Protection

Sun protection is a must for any outdoor event, especially on a boat where you’re exposed to the sun’s rays for extended periods. Be sure to pack sunscreen with a high SPF, a wide-brimmed hat, and a pair of sunglasses to shield your eyes from the sun.

Get your highly rated sunscreen for sensitive skin HERE

You can also wear a cover-up, sarong, or a lightweight, long-sleeved shirt to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Sunburns are not only uncomfortable but can also ruin your boat party experience, so it’s a good idea to take sun protection seriously.

6. Keep Jewelry Simple and Practical

While accessorizing is a fun part of dressing up for a boat party, it’s best to keep your jewelry simple and practical. Jewelry that is too flashy or oversized can easily get caught on ropes or other equipment on the boat, posing a safety risk. Opt for minimalist jewelry such as delicate necklaces, stud earrings, or simple bracelets that won’t get in the way while you’re enjoying your boat party activities.

Avoid wearing valuable or sentimental pieces that you wouldn’t want to risk losing in the water. If you do wear rings , make sure they fit snugly and won’t slip off in case your hands get wet or slippery.

7. Bring Stylish Swimwear

Chances are, you’ll want to take a dip in the water during your boat trip, so make sure you have a stylish swimwear option that makes you feel confident and comfortable. Opt for swimsuits in fun prints, vibrant colors, or trendy styles that reflect your personal style. One-piece swimsuits, bikinis, and swim shorts are all great options, depending on your preference.

You can also pair your bathing suit with a chic cover-up or a breezy sarong for added style and versatility. You can also wear a bikini top underneath a knee-length summer dress if you’re attending a more casual event. Don’t forget to bring a towel or a beach wrap to dry off after your swim and to lounge on the boat’s deck in style.

8. Bring a Versatile Bag

A versatile bag is a must-have for a boat party, as you’ll need to carry your essentials like sunscreen, sunglasses, a towel, and other personal items. Opt for a bag that is practical, yet stylish. A straw tote , canvas bag, or a waterproof backpack are all great options for a boat party. Look for a bag with enough room to hold your belongings but not too bulky that it becomes cumbersome to carry around on the boat.

Choose a bag that complements your outfit and matches the nautical theme, if possible. A versatile bag is a good choice as it will not only complete your boat party look, but also make it easy to keep your essentials organized and accessible throughout the event. Complete your chic look with a pair of sunglasses and a wide brim hat.

9. Consider the Dress Code and Theme

Boat parties can vary in terms of dress code and theme, so it’s important to consider the specific requirements of the event you’re attending. Some boat parties may have a specific dress code, such as all-white attire or tropical-themed outfits, so make sure to adhere to the guidelines to fully embrace the party’s theme.

Even if there isn’t a specific dress code, it’s still a good idea to dress in a way that complements the overall vibe of the event. For a casual boat party, you can opt for a breezy sundress or shorts with a cute top. For a more formal boat party such as a boat wedding, you may want to dress up in a maxi flowy dress or a tailored jumpsuit.

10. Be Mindful of Boat Safety

Last but not least, when choosing your boat party outfit, always keep boat safety in mind. Avoid wearing loose clothing that can easily get caught in ropes or other equipment on the boat. Opt for fitted clothing that allows you to move comfortably without any risk of tripping or falling.

Avoid wearing heavy accessories or anything that can obstruct your movement or balance on the boat. Safety should always be a top priority when dressing for a boat party to ensure that you can enjoy the event without any accidents or mishaps.

Remember, boat parties are all about having fun and enjoying the water, so choose clothing that allows you to move comfortably and confidently. Whether you’re cruising on a yacht, sailing on a catamaran, or partying on a pontoon boat, the right outfit can enhance your experience and make you feel like a fashion-forward sailor.

So, what are some outfit ideas for a boat party? Here are a few examples:

What to Wear to a Boat Party or Yacht Party

1. Nautical Chic: Embrace the classic nautical theme with a navy and white striped top paired with white shorts or a white skirt. This could even be a polo shirt. Add a red bandana or scarf for a pop of color, and complete the look with boat shoes or white sneakers. This timeless and effortless outfit is perfect for a casual boat party and will make you look like you’re ready to set sail.

2. Beach Boho: Opt for a flowy boho-inspired dress in a lightweight fabric such as chiffon or cotton. Choose a dress with playful prints or bright colors that evoke a carefree and relaxed vibe. Pair it with strappy sandals or flat shoes, a wide-brimmed straw hat, and some oversized sunglasses for a boho-chic look that’s perfect for a beach-themed boat party.

3. Sporty and Practical: If you’re planning to be active during your boat party, such as water sports or fishing, choose a sporty and practical outfit. Opt for quick-dry shorts or leggings, a moisture-wicking tank top, and a lightweight waterproof jacket in case of changing weather.

4. Elegant and Sophisticated: If you’re attending a formal boat party, such as a sunset cruise or a yacht club event, you may want to dress up in a more elegant and sophisticated outfit. Opt for a chic maxi dress in a flowing fabric, such as silk or chiffon, in a solid color or a sophisticated print.

Add some statement jewelry , such as a statement necklace or bold earrings, and wear strappy heels or wedges for a polished look. Don’t forget to bring a lightweight shawl or a wrap in case it gets chilly during the evening.

5. Casual and Comfortable: For a laid-back and casual boat party, choose comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and relax. Opt for denim shorts or capris paired with a loose-fitting blouse or a casual t-shirt.

If you also want to correspond with the theme of the boat party, you can add themed decorations to your jeans and t-shirts. Maybe, you can design your own Custom Patches of that theme to sew on your clothes.

And you can totally use your own fashion creativity to design your favorite patterns and shapes according to your outfit. Not only does it give a casual outfit a new look, but it’s also a great way to try to personalize it.

Add some slip-on sneakers or sandals, and don’t forget to bring a lightweight cardigan or a hoodie for added warmth if needed. This casual and comfortable outfit is a classic look and perfect for a daytime boat party with friends or family.

In addition to the stylish outfits mentioned above, always remember to bring sunscreen, lip balm, sunglasses , a hat, and a reusable water bottle to stay protected and hydrated during your boat party.

It’s also a good idea to pack a change of clothes and a towel in case you get wet or want to freshen up. And don’t forget to bring your camera or smartphone to capture the memories of your boat party adventures!

The Sailor's Style Guide: How to Dress at a Yacht Club

If you've been invited to a casual yacht club rendezvous, you'll need the right threads to fit in.  in this guide, we'll walk you through the yacht club attire you'll need to fit in. hint: you can find the perfect outfit head to toe with castaway.

You've been invited to a meal or event at a local yacht club, but you've never been to one before. Suddenly, the panic sets in. What should you wear? Fortunately, there are lots of options and visiting a yacht club does not mean you have to spend a lot of money just to fit in. This post will give you some pointers on yacht club attire so that you feel neither under nor overdressed, and can really enjoy yourself and have a great time at the club.

Before you even think about what to wear, check to see if the yacht club you're going to has a dress code posted online. Most of them do, and the rules can vary from club to club. The Nantucket Yacht Club , for example, requires semi-formal attire for its dinners and cocktail attire including ties for men during its dinner dances and balls. The Hyannis Yacht Club goes into a little more detail. It accepts stylish casual wear including clean, neat jeans and shorts for lunch. For dinner, guests are expected to step it up by leaving the denim at home and wearing sports coats. Different areas of a club may also have different dress rules. Bars and outdoor decks tend to more lax and allow casual clothing.

Sometimes, the easiest way of narrowing down what to wear is to eliminate what you should not wear. This is just a partial list of how not to show up at any kind of yacht club unless you want to be denied admittance or receive a lot of disapproving glares. All rules listed apply to the inside of the club, and can vary for beach and dock rulings.

Flip Flops or Going Barefoot: This rule applies INSIDE the club, or for any meal time. Most people love the beach, but going barefoot is not only unacceptable, but unhygienic.

You'll want to wear appropriate footwear such as sturdy sandals or closed toe shoes. While a lot of children and adults love their flip-flops, they may be a little too casual for a yacht club atmosphere. The most popular choice here is a boat shoe style but a bridle bit driver is always appropriate - check the latest . The lightly worn leather and pencil-curled laces fit the bill in the cool department.

Torn, Stained, or Worn Clothing: Any attire that is showing signs of wear such as rips, stains that never came out, holes, missing buttons, etc. should be left at home.

Baseball Caps and Other Hats: Most yacht clubs prefer that men remove their caps when inside the venue. Save them for the sailing excursions.

Extra points on the water if you rock the Club’s Burgee on the hat!

Swimwear: Just a no-no. Save it for the boat and the beach. A cover-up can be acceptable for the patio.

Going Shirtless: Nope!

Undershirts as Shirts: See above. You may also want to be careful about choosing a t-shirt, particularly one with graphics, when visiting a yacht club. Most prefer that you wear a collared shirt, even if it's a casual one such as a polo shirt.

Tank tops for men and any tank tops for women that are skimpy and don't hide undergarments should be saved for another occasion.

Women have a lot of options when it comes to visiting a yacht club. Linen and cotton make the perfect summer blouses. A light but structured Sleeveless Top paired with a  sweater is perfect for warding off cool sea breezes when you're out on the deck. A polo or collared shirt works well for the yacht club scene as well. You can also consider a dressy blouse that has a little bit of flounce to it. If shorts are allowed for the time and area of the club you're visiting, consider sporting  Sailing  shorts  with a cute anchor embroidery. They're cool, classy, and show off just the right amount of leg. Casual skirts and dresses are perfectly fine as well as long as they're not too short and revealing. If you're attending a party at a yacht club you may need to wear a nice cocktail dress, or a classic Tunic Dress for a day event. Special events such as balls and dinner dances usually specify what is appropriate attire on the invitation.

Don't forget to have fun with accessories! A straw handbag can complete a nautical themed look.

For most casual yacht club occasions, men can't go wrong with a collared shirt and long pants or Cisco Shorts . Pastel and preppy shades such as summer green, hurricane red, and islander blue rule here.

When casual attire is allowed, collared sport or polo shirts are always in fashion. Seersucker and linen shirts are available in several colors and patterns for summer club get-togethers. If jeans are not allowed, seersucker or cotton canvas pants are still casual and comfortable yet dressy enough for all areas of a yacht club. If you really want to show your love of nautical dressing, consider wearing a fun Embroidered Pant !

Or you can opt for solid pants but add some nautical flair with an embroidered belt . Classic summer staples like Seersucker and Madras Patches will make you the talk of the Club, in a good way!

For those chilly sea breezes and evenings, a quarter zip pullover wards off the cool air while keeping you stylish and casual.

It's a good idea to keep a sportcoat and a few ties in your closet just in case the yacht club you're visiting requires it. Opt for a fun all over embroidered jacket, or a Madras Patchwork style to really up your game.

Kids' clothing should conform to the same yacht club rules as established for grown-up guests. If you really want your son to look cute, consider dressing him in the same matching outfit as dad.

Whether you're looking to make a splash with yacht club attire or just want to look good on the boat or while meeting with friends, we have the seaside looks that you'll look and feel wonderful in for men, women, and children.

Yachty by Nature

Yacht rock outfits, yacht rock outfits 101.

Whether you just discovered the art of smooth or been digging smooth soft rock for a while now, the subject of Yacht Rock Outfits is on your mind. Let me just say, for those about to dock, we salute you. There is an unmistakable moment when Yacht Rock is revealed to you. For me, it happened at a fancy industry party in LA. This fab girl came up and mic dropped it so smoothly to my then 80’s band, Neon Nation , saying “you guys play any yacht rock”? Holy crap, I pretty much spit out my drink and fell to the floor wondering what I was in for.

“You walked in to the party, like you were walking onto a yacht.”

Yachty Attire

The rest is history and I’m now well into 7 years of playing keyboards in a nationally successful yacht rock band, Yachty by Nature . No doubt, I’m living that dream and it goes without saying, I’m deep in the yacht myself. With weekly yacht party after monthly yacht wedding and more, I’m becoming a Yacht Attire expert in thought and practice and already guiding the band and others in this area of fashion.

Truly, if you get the clothing right, enough people with that common goal, just add yacht music and the fun ensues. Truth be told, I’ve watched as a room full of punk rockers that committed to the groovy, eclectic yacht rock dress code transformed like you wouldn’t believe.  They turned a simple celebration with a yacht rock band into a full scale 1978 throwback LOVE FEST and the clothes were off the hook. The energy, the vibe, the clothes, the music became something so magical all its own. Build the yacht and they will sail to it.

So, next time you are having a yacht party or watching your favorite yacht rock band indulge yourself with an epic outfit that will make all it happen. It’s not just the music, the band, the vibe, the look, the energy. It’s the sum of its parts and those smooth outfits have the mighty power to transfix your situation.

The Captain’s Hat…

Yep, you guessed it, the fastest coronation to yacht rock royalty is the Captain’s Hat.  Buy one, make one, bedazzle one or borrow one. In fact, the sky is the limit here so let your creativity reign if you are gonna go for it.  But, just get one somehow, some way and you are on the yacht. In fact, Broner makes a very comfortable, quality, straightforward and good looking hat that fits well.  Additionally, it avoids the cheap fit and look of those basic hats on Amazon. Do yourself a favor, get a hat or dig deep in the vault and find a classic, vintage, or authentic captain’s hat online. Additionally, we’ve seen some pretty cool and unique creations out there, but for simplicity, fit, and value, Broner is the answer.  Lastly, remember what Hefner did for the captains hat!

Yacht Rock Stripes get it done…

No matter what color, stripes will be the 2nd easiest way to begin your yacht fashion transformation. Put on a red and white striped shirt (or blue or black mainly) and you’ll be sailing in no time. In fact, stripes are probably the #1 most sighted outfit at a yacht rock party. Just know that it’s only the start. When you accessorize over the stripes with a complementary pant color or scarf, ascot, belt, and obviously the captain’s hat or more, you’ve earned your captain’s bars quicker than you can say Ship Shape! Don’t forget to keep it simple, too much or conflicting stripes will sink that ship just as fast.

That 70’s look…

Gettin’ Yachty @ Costello’s in Mission Viejo

Due to the strong connection between the silly, the goofy, the fun and the yacht party, going retro will set a course for adventure. Call it the Ron Burgundy effect or just throwing back to the 1977 duds they wore on Midnight Special , this look is uber sexy and may attract the opposite sex faster than any other yacht look. In fact, you don’t have to look too far to find polyester or denim clad jean meat at many yacht rock concerts. Additionally, the fake mustache works wonders whether you go 70’s vintage or any different yachty outfit.  More importantly, get bonus points on your yacht rock outfits if you can get the feathered hair going!  Polyester, print shirts, and for the ladies, buy that disco dress and some fabulous glasses and you’re ready to yacht!

The Yacht Club, Tennis Club, Golf Club…

Think Caddyshack, Marina del Rey, golfing, the harbor, and tennis. Moreso, put a tennis sweater over that polo or even better go up the ladder and put on that navy blue blazer with an ascot and some yellow glasses. Actually, that’s the calling card for us in Yachty by Nature! Pretend that you’re christening the Flying Wasp or dropping anchor with Rodney Dangerfield in Caddyshack and you’ll be flying indeed. Or even better, watch Caddyshack to get in the mood for your party and let inspiration take hold…and even a few classic movie lines. In fact, if you look around the golf club or yacht club scenes, your creativity is sparked immediately.  The outfits jump right off the screen and wreak of Yacht Club greatness.  Speaking of movies, we’ve even seen a die hard Yachty arrive in the Goldie Hawn outfit from the movie Overboard. Keep your yacht rock outfits classy San Diaaaaaago!

Go Hawaiian on your Yacht Rock outfits…

Get Nauti !

Lastly, this category is a catch all for everything nautical, yachty, and seaworthy.  Use your imagination or stick to the basics.  You can don the captain’s outfit with shoulder bars easily for the Love Boat vibe.  Or, you can just look like Charlie’s Angels coming off a yacht in 1978.  Literally any type of ocean, beach, seaside, or otherwise yachty type of clothing will do.  The scarf around the neck, the boat shorts and the Nantucket red pants and plaid shirt all qualify as supremely yachty fashion.  When in doubt, check yourself by asking, “would I wear this outfit in the summer in Nantucket or Martha’s Vineyard?”  Most importantly, if the answer is yes, you are yacht rock camera ready.  In fact, let’s not forget the boat shoes, deck shoes, or Sperry Top Siders all together.

Yacht Rock Outfits Wildcard…

Never forget that there’s really no authority on this subject so you can always just go for it.  Sometimes, the more uniform, standard, and strict we get on the yacht, the more mundane we become.  Therefore, don’t be afraid to dive into the vanity t-shirt, go stripes and ascot, and generally mix it up.  There are no hard and fast rules behind the Yacht Rock outfit, just your creativity and passion for the music.  From experience, we’ll go captain’s outfit one day and crazy boat shirt the next.  Ultimately, we’ve seen it all from the stage and relish the moments when people go wild with it.  In fact, there’s probably even a yacht rock adjacent area for the Pirate Party as well.  Captain Crunch sightings aside, those parties can really bring together the nauti, yachty, knotty by nature and then some.  In the end, go for it and see what happens.  It’s all fun and games until someone loses an eyepatch.  Honestly, it’s all about the fun so get Kraken!!!

As always, let the vibe be your guide.  Thus, for your next yacht rock themed party, concert, or just a Yachty night on the town, get your ensemble going.  Whether you are new to the yacht or an old deck hand, that outfit will crank up the experience.  So, commit to making that statement with your yacht clothing or up your game and improve on the garb you already have.  As we well know, you can never have enough options to mix it up for a fun night with Yachty by Nature or some other occasion.

Happy to be your guide here.  Feel free to comment and add some great ideas on this post or on social media. #yachtrock #yachtrockoutfits #yachtybynature #yachtattire #yachtrockfashion

About Author

Thanks for giving props to Tiki Caliente! I would like to point out that the most proper Hawaiian shirt to wear to a Yacht Rock concert is one that would have been for sale between 1978 and 1983! Think to yourself, would Magnum PI or Pablo Cruise wear this? And if so, bring it on! Most Magnum PI kind of Hawaiian shirts go great with a white jacket and white shorts. Vintage late ‘70s and early ‘80’s Hawaiian shirts can be found Online in Etsy yacht rock shops, and on eBay. Not expensive, and so ”vintage smooth”. Look like a pro, and be “era appropriate”. Girls can find vintage 70’s nautical dresses on Etsy, too!

THIS is everything!!! I love it Carl!!!

Ahoy Jenny! THanks so much for the kind compliment 🙂 As you know, we’re super inspired and love switching up the outfits, attire, clothing, and costumes. Yacht Rock rules!

Awesome show this past weekend at Circa Caliente glad the rain stopped so the show could go on.

What To Wear on a Yacht: 8 Chic Ideas

Whether you are invited to an intimate get-together on a friend's yacht or plan on chartering a boat in the Bahamas for a week, the most important thing about being on the open seas is having the right outfit to meet your moment. 

It can be overwhelming to try to figure out what to wear on a yacht, especially with changing weather conditions and shifting trends. This concise guide offers 8 chic ideas to help you look and feel your best whether you’re on land or sea. 

The Perfect Outfit for Every Occasion

A yacht is always an adventure. However, the dress code for an event on the water can be challenging. Whether you’re preparing for a brunch or evening soiree aboard, you’ll need to consider what outfit the event is asking for.

Whether you’re looking for moderate coverage, or are more excited to sun in your bikini on the upper deck, selecting an outfit for the yacht is important. You want to feel as good as you look, so making sure that you take into consideration how much skin you’re comfortable showing, the weather conditions, and the event you’re attending is a must. 

1. Prioritize Comfort

How you feel in your clothing is just as important – if not more so – than wearing the hottest trends of the season. Whether you’re selecting a swimsuit, a beachy cover-up, or a matching patterned set, prioritize clothing that makes you feel as good as you look. If you’re comfortable, you’ll feel more confident to show up to any situation as your authentic self. 

3. Try a Romper for the Best of Both Worlds

A romper is an effortless and stylish way to look your best and prioritize comfort. Rompers come in many styles, with everything from form-fitting to flowy to flatter your figure. The best thing about a romper is its versatility; it can be dressed up with heels and earrings, or stay casual and cute with sandals and a canvas tote. Whatever the occasion on board, you can’t go wrong with a romper.  

4. Balance Comfort and Style With a One-Piece

A one-piece bathing suit can be the perfect outfit on its own, especially if you’re planning to yacht somewhere warmer or where swimming is the priority. Perhaps the yacht has a pool on deck, and you’d prefer to lounge while getting a tan.

Nothing beats a classic silhouette , so pairing a one-piece suit with some casual sandals, a tote with your essentials, and some delicate earrings are all you need to make a statement. Especially if you’re more comfortable wearing a bathing suit as your yacht attire, a one-piece successfully provides coverage in all the right places, while accentuating your figure naturally. 

5. Highlight All the Right Places With a Kimono

There’s nothing better than an outfit that highlights all the right places, defines your natural curves, and provides extra coverage where you want it. A kimono, particularly a colorful or  vibrantly patterned piece, allows flexibility in outfit choices, while still also making a statement.  

Take the Eclectic Shore Kimono from La Blanca , a perfectly colorful cover-up with tassels and an open front. A kimono can be worn over a swimsuit, effortlessly adding to a breezy aesthetic, or even paired with pants and a light top if you don’t want to commit to the heaviness of a sweater.

6. Show a Little More With a Bikini

If you’re feeling like showing a bit more skin, or the priority on the yacht is to soak in the sun, a bikini might be the perfect outfit for the yacht. Especially if you’re spending time on the water in a more casual setting, or snorkeling and watersports are the main attraction, why not look as stylish as possible? 

With so many bikini styles to choose from, the most important thing to consider is which will you feel most comfortable in. Whether you choose a tankini, one-shoulder, or strapless bathing suit, a two-piece will be sure to turn heads. And don’t forget the SPF ! It’s important to pair your style with health, so prioritize hydration, adequate sun coverage, and sunscreen. 

5. Keep It Classic With a Sundress 

There’s a reason why a classic is a classic. You can’t go wrong with a sundress on the water, and, like the myriad options of bathing suits, there seem to be endless styles of dresses to choose from. It can be overwhelming to select a sundress, so keep it simple and classic, or commit to making a statement. 

Especially if you’ll be on the water during the middle of the day, a sundress might be the move. Too much sun can be draining, and you can’t get much better than relaxing in a shady spot on a yacht. Additionally, a sundress can be easily transitioned into a nighttime outfit by swapping sandals for heels, pairing it with some elegant jewelry, and including a wrap or sweater. 

6. Linen Pants Are a Breeze

One of the great things about linen is that it’s a flexible, breathable material. Whether you’re relaxing by the poolside bar or on a Mediterranean adventure, pairing pants with a cute top is a sophisticated, stylish way to bring comfort into an outfit. Prioritize pants made of breathable material, and are appropriate for the weather and type of yacht excursion you might be embarking on. 

The great thing about pants is that they can effortlessly be paired with a one-piece bathing suit for a complete outfit, coupled with a wrap, kimono, or sweater for when it gets chillier in the evening. If you opt for an outfit without a bathing suit, pants can be combined with a number of tops to create the perfect outfit. 

7. Try a Longer Skirt, Make a Statement 

If you’re not partial to pants, embracing a longer skirt could be the perfect move for an inspired outfit. Selecting a skirt length is key, as you don’t want it to be too long or short for comfort. A three-quarter-length skirt, especially when part of a matching set or paired with a bathing suit top, creates a seamless and high-impact look. 

Longer skirts are flattering in all the right places and can be dressed up or kept casual depending on whether you pair them with heels, flats, or a wide-brimmed sun hat. With a two-part set, a longer skirt can provide a sweet silhouette to a bathing suit top, and elevate its function, which is to provide coverage. Consider matching a patterned skirt with a neutral top, or complementing colors between top and bottom. 

8. Shorts and T-shirt: A Timeless Combination

You really can’t go wrong with shorts and a shirt when embarking on a yacht. We saved this go-to outfit for last because its simplicity is timeless; shorts offer flexibility in that they can be paired with a variety of stylish options. Consider pairing shorts with a simple t-shirt, patterned tankini, or off-the-shoulder top; three very different styles, all simple and effective ways to embrace style and comfort during a day at sea. 

If you’re keener on water sports , snorkeling, or generally are interested in a more active aesthetic, consider board shorts. These shorts from La Blanca are not only functiona l (they are quick-drying and equipped with pockets for storage), but are a stylish complement to your bathing suit. Stylish shorts can merge function and fashion, providing you with the best of both worlds. 

The Bottom Line 

Planning out an outfit for your day on a yacht can feel overwhelming since there are so many options to choose from. Do you choose a skirt or shorts? Do you opt for pants instead of a kimono, or combine both for a blended look? With these eight chic ideas, you can’t go wrong. Consider what your priorities are and plan from there; is comfort as important as style? Are you eager to get into the water and start snorkeling, or would you rather relax and suntan? 

Curating an outfit for a yacht can seem daunting, but really just involves some intentional curation. If you plan to tan or swim, select a bathing suit that’s classic and versatile and can be combined with a number of outfit options. If you prefer to hang out above deck, a beautiful matching set of pants can offer a fashion-forward option for relaxation. 

Whether you’re going for festive, fun, stylish, or comfortable, planning your outfit for a yacht doesn’t have to compromise style for comfort. Grab your SPF and sunglasses, and create an outfit that not only looks great but makes you feel even better.

8 Perfect Yacht Party Outfits to Wear This Summer

• June 18, 2024

Ever found yourself staring at your closet before a yacht party and wondering what on earth to wear? Last summer, I was in the same boat (pun intended) for my birthday party in Sydney. After a lot of trial and error, I finally nailed down the perfect yacht party outfits. This guide will save you from that sartorial stress.

In this post, I’ll share everything you need to know about yacht attire, from day party looks to night party ensembles. Let’s help you look stunning and feel comfortable so you can focus on having fun.

Rules of What to Wear on a Boat

Before we get into the outfits, let’s talk about some basics. What you wear on a boat is different from your usual party attire. Here are some quick rules:

• Light Colours – Light colours not only keep you cool but also reflect that nautical vibe.
• No Heels – Heels are a no-go on a boat. Opt for flat sandals or go barefoot.
• Comfortable Fabrics – Choose fabrics like cotton or crepe that are breathable and won’t make you overheat.

Now that we have the basics down, let’s get into the outfits.

Day Party Boat Outfits

So, now, what to wear on a boat? These should be your go-to options for a yacht party during the day. They are effortless, chic, and comfortable. They’ll look great in photos (because, let’s be real, there will be a lot of those). And, they’ll work for both shore hopping and boat lounging.

Nautical Stripes

Nothing says yacht party outfit like nautical stripes. A matching knit top and skirt can look chic and effortless while also looking great in photos (of course).

Choose a style that hugs your body so you don’t have to worry about anything flying away. Don’t forget to add some simple gold jewellery and your favourite pair of sunglasses. Footwear is optional, as always.

Shop The Look

Bikini and white shirt.

When in doubt, a bikini and white shirt is a classic. Especially if it’s going to be a day spend with cocktails on the beach. The best part? You can easily freshen up by jumping in the water and throwing on your shirt to keep warm.

This is a must if you’re looking for an easy European summer fashion outfit to pack. The bikini in itself is just as much apart of the outfit as anything else you’re wearing. Keep it casual with a monochromatic looks, or spice it up with colours and prints. That’s up to you.

Blue Dress On A Boat

A blue dress is an easy choice for a yacht party. Think of the sea, the sky, and how lovely you’ll look against them. A halter neck maxi dress that’s not too voluminous is perfect. You don’t want to fight with the wind, after all.

Lighter fabrics like crepe or cotton are ideal too keep you cool in the sunshine. Pair it with some delicate jewellery and you’re good to go.

Long Sleeved Knit Dress

A long-sleeved knit dress is kind of the go-to summer fashion dress when you’re unsure what to pack. Perfect whether you’re on the boat all day or hopping between beaches.

Throw on a colourful bikini underneath for a pop of colour. Add a straw hat and maybe even an oversized bangle for a touch of high fashion.

It’s the little details that will take this otherwise standard dress and make it boat party ready.

Contrast Swimsuit and White Linen Pants

A black and white swimsuit has always been iconic—especially as a bodysuit. We love a versatile piece, and this one is perfect for both day and night yacht parties.

Pair it with white linen pants and add some statement earrings and a neck scarf to give that old money look. You might not be on a billionaire’s yacht, but at least you can look like it.

Rosette Swimsuit and White Linen Pants

If you’re looking for a more casual yacht party outfits, but still put-together look, try pairing a rosette swimsuit with white linen pants. It’s comfortable yet stylish and perfect for lounging on the yacht deck or taking a dip in the ocean.

Bring along a white linen shirt to throw on after your swim, add a hat and your favourite sunglasses. You’re good to go.

Night Boat Party Outfits

Night yacht party outfits can be a little harder to navigate, but they don’t need to be. One of the best tips is to bring a dress with you that’s easy, doesn’t require any steaming and suits being dressed up with accessories.

Cocktail Slinky Dress

Kylie Jenner rocked a brown Paris Georgia slinky dress during her summer holiday in Spain. You can achieve a similar look with a form-fitting, slinky dress that won’t catch the wind.

Keep your hair natural and load up on gold jewellery. You can still grab her dress below if you want to copy the look.

White Linen Mini Dress With Headscarf

Consider this the Audrey Hepburn look of the yachting world. A white linen mini dress paired with a headscarf is the perfect summer party outfit for you. It’s effortlessly chic and will keep you cool in the hot sun.

Accessorise with sunglasses and minimal jewellery to complete the look. And, if you really need some shoes to wear, go for a pair of comfortable espadrilles.

Silk Slip Dress with Neck Tie

Silk slip dresses are a must-have for any summer party, and for your yacht party attire, this is no exception. But to take it up a notch, tie a scarf around your neck as an elegant accessory.

Choose a classic stark white or a vibrant colour for a bit of added fun. And you can even add some leather sandals (just keep them low) if you want to elevate your look.

Final Tips For Your Yacht Party Outfit

Here are a few final tips to keep in mind when choosing an outfit for your yacht party:

• Dress according to the occasion. Is it a casual day party or a more formal night party?
• Don’t be afraid to add some pops of colour or fun accessories.
• Choose fabrics that are comfortable and breathable.
• Keep your footwear simple and comfortable – you may even want to go barefoot!
• Don’t forget to bring along a cover-up or layer in case it gets chilly on the water.

With these outfit ideas in mind, you can now confidently plan yacht party outfits for the summer searson. But remember, the most important thing is to feel comfortable and confident in whatever you choose to wear.

You won’t want to be worried about your outfit when you should be enjoying the beautiful views and good company on the yacht. So have fun with your outfit choices, and enjoy the party!

Importance of choosing the right outfit for a Miami boat party

Whether it’s an office dinner, casual celebration, festival, bachelor affair, etc., boat parties in Miami are getting quite popular among all age groups. Boat parties are different from other types of parties, so dressing appropriately is essential.

The right clothing can even make you feel intelligent and confident, and most importantly for you to feel comfortable. Boat parties bring great fun, excitement, and celebrations with them. But the next moment you ask yourself,

Check out this useful guide for the best clothing suggestions and advice on the dress code if you’re unsure of what to wear to a boat or yacht party.

Factors to consider when choosing an outfit

Before you plan any outfit for a party, you need to decide the what and when of the party, i.e. 1. What type of party is being organized? 2. When is the party being organized?

Your dress code for the boat party may vary depending on the type of party like –

(a) For a formal party, women can go with a tea- or floor-length gown or a suit jacket with matching pants or a skirt, and men can opt for a dark suit, white dress shirt, and conservative tie.

(b) For a casual party, jeans and a lovely top or an outfit with a midi skirt is a good option for women, and men can pair their comfortable jeans and shorts with casual shirts and t-shirts. So, select your outfit based on the type of party being organized. Is your party a day party or a night party, and does it take place in the summer or winter? These factors can even affect your style.

Tips for achieving trendy look

Whether you style for a boat party, pool party, office party, or anything else, these 3 Cs are  quite essential to making yourself stand out from the crowd and you can effortlessly get a  chic and trendy look-

While choosing your clothing comfort is a crucial factor. Until your body gets comfortable with your styling, you are unable to focus completely on the party.

You can include selecting soft and breezy fabric along with choosing designs that are adaptable like clothes from linen, chiffon etc

In fact, if you are joining any pool party, don’t be afraid to layer. Try some solid colours like blue or black. Even bright woollens from your wardrobe can be carried to parties.

2. Creative

Not only are women’s clothes creative nowadays, but men’s clothing is not far behind. There are numerous varieties for both.

Going with simple, plain materials like leather and yarn and neutral patterns like stripes, play with sequins and floral prints in little doses to see what looks good on you.

Nighttime parties are great for cocktail dresses and semi-formal attire for females. Stay away from colors that make you appear wiped out. Choose a hue that pops against your skin and makes you feel more confident.

Without a doubt, if you are going to a boat party, which is an ideal place to design yourself with a classy look,

Spending a lot of money is not necessary to dress elegantly. It involves creating a classy and elegant look.

From neutral to classic colors, some fine patterns that suit your body type along with some accessories can complete your elegant look.

What should a woman wear to a day time boat party?

Women have a plethora of options, so their wardrobes can be filled with countless collections. But the more choices, the more confusion. You can pick a attire from the ones we’ve provided you below-

1. Jeans with stylish tops

Crop tops are the easiest to style. Tall girls can match high-waisted pants with crop tops. Ripped jeans are a better option for looking stylish.

Although jeans might be a relatively casual wardrobe staple, wearing them with a dressy blouse can dramatically transform your appearance.

2. Jumpsuits and rompers

Without uncertainty, jumpsuits are a fashion statement. Wear a loose-fitting jumpsuit with an elasticized or drawstring waist for a cool, casual style. It can be really nice to don a patterned romper during the sweltering summer boat parties.

The sophisticated-looking patterns gingham, paisley, and stripes add the perfect amount of depth and visual appeal to rompers.

3. Shorts and skirts

The delicate detail on the top, the boots, and the denim skirt all match each other beautifully. A fitted blouse and a midi skirt make a timeless combination. From casual to huge parties, shorts are always entertaining.

You can pair high-waisted flare women’s shorts and Bermuda shorts with a pretty combination of tops and accessories.

4. Swimsuits and Bikini

There are a variety of methods to tie the strings of the tops and bottoms of your bikinis in order to rapidly raise your appearance, from strappy waists to cool cutouts. The good aspect about swimsuits is that they are simple to layer over, making them suitable for a party or a short bath.

What should a woman wear to a boat party at night?

5. cocktail dresses.

Daytime and Night time parties are great for cocktail dresses. This can be a better option if you are attending a boat party wedding. Instead of a solid color, try a floral or tropical print. Consider wearing one in a deep jewel tone to go with the ocean’s and night sky’s deep blue hues, or stand out from the night sky in a cocktail dress.

6. Informal Three piece

Here, three items don’t necessarily imply the weight of the office; instead, you can pair shorts, a bikini, and skirts with shrugs, coats, and jackets in the same color with tops or shirts. Even if it’s an office boat party, this can be a perfect match for you.

7. Jackets and Coats

Remember, if you are going to plan a party in the winter, then your health is quite important. And even jackets and coats can minimise your efforts to select your outfits. You can make a visual contrast between the jacket and the other fashionable items, which is another gorgeous and aesthetically acceptable approach

What should a man wear to a boat party?

Males have a limited collection for attire, but plenty of colors and patterns can add a change to their styling. Some of them are mentioned below-

8. Shirts and T-shirts

It is better to go with the casual and plain colors in t-shirts and the good one you can pick is-

• Polo t-shirt
• Sleeveless t-shirt
• Henley t-shirts

And if you want to be creative in selecting for shirt you can go with-

• Check shirts
• Striped shirts
• Short Sleeve Shirt

9. Jeans and Trousers

Make yourself comfortable at a boat party with a formal and casual selection of party trousers. White, navy, cream, or black are also suitable colors. If you want to unwind, a loose, relaxed fit can be the ideal companion. You can rest assured that slim-fitting jeans are preferable and will go with all of your casual t-shirts

Well, boat parties are perfect for men to show their skinny legs. And you can pick from various alternatives in shorts. And always search for a tailored style that ends just above the knee. You can majorly go for

• Polka dots shorts
• Denim shorts
• Tailored Shorts
• Colorful shorts
• Linen Shorts

4 Common mistakes to avoid when choosing an outfit

Wherever you go for a party, you make some mistakes at the last moment, which can spoil your overall mood. Here you can prevent yourself from some mistakes as-

• To avoid looking out of place at the party, ask your host about any dress code that may apply before planning your outfit.
• Try to avoid wearing tight and uncomfortable clothes that make you feel uncomfortable throughout the party.
• Avoid wearing heels, as they’re not suitable for a boat deck.
• Bring some jackets or coats if you plan to stay until late at night, as you will be completely submerged in water.
• Be picky about the fabric of your dress. You can go with cotton or linen.

9 Essentials to carry for a boat party

Just get a perfect boat trip and don’t miss these essentials to carry with you-

• Hats and Sunglasses
• Swimsuit and Towel
• Extra footwear and dress
• Sweater and Jacket
• Comfortable Footwear
• Charger or Power-Bank
• First Aid Kit

So after your selection of attire, you are all set for the party. Your good dress selection will give you better confidence throughout the party.

What's the dress code for a boat party?

The dress code is usually determined by the location and type of party, but it is preferable to wear something light and comfortable. The dress code of a boat party can be quite casual and classy, but you have to decide what fits your body better.

What color should you wear on a boat?

If it’s daytime, it’s preferable to wear light and pastel colors like baby blue, whimsy yellow, lavender, peach, or pink. You can go with dark colors at night because they absorb heat and make you feel warm the whole day.

Can I wear high heels to a boat party?

It is not preferable for women to wear heels as the surface of the deck is uneven and slippy. However, if you prefer, go with minimal heels and combine the rest with flats or shoes

What to Wear to a Yacht Party – Your Dress Code Guide!

Dressing for a boat party is different than any other kind of event. While you have good times, you need to look great and most importantly, feel comfortable in your clothing. Also, you need to take some safety precautions into consideration as boats have unpredictable movements. After all, you want to have an exceptional time! Most yacht events take place in the summer, so you need to dress accordingly to the weather. What will be your event about? A Day party? A night party? In this article, you will find out exactly what to wear to a yacht party.

Table of Contents

Most parties are held during the day. You will probably spend most of your time enjoying dancing on the deck with a cocktail in your hand or swimming in the water, so you need an attire comfortable to wear and easy to pull on/off!

• Choose a swimsuit or a bikini to wear under your clothes. Make sure to pick a color that suits your attire.
• A flowy dress, short skirt, airy beach pants, or a short over your swimsuit will be perfect for this kind of party. You can also match them with a summary layer or a loose blouse.
• As for the shoes, flat sandals with soft soles will get you out of trouble. High heels are an absolute no-no as they are not safe on a boat and can scratch the deck.

Accessories

• You should be wearing sunglasses during the day, but not just any, you need polarized sunglasses to protect 100% your eyes from the UV rays of the sun
• Try to store your stuff like sunglasses, makeup, and hair clips in a waterproof handbag. It could be useful if it gets wet!
• Makeup Use only waterproof makeup during the day
• Opt for a tight swimsuit if you plan to wear it under your cloth. Otherwise, there are stylish good looking swimwears that look more like dress shorts, which you can match with loose shirts and a light jacket
• The most appropriate clothes for men are loose pants, boating shorts , and jean shorts assorted with light shirts, or polo and a loose vest.
• Avoid flip-flops and opt for nonmarking boating shoes , like Sperry. These come in a wide variety of styles to choose from and will match any outfit. With these shoes, you can walk in complete tranquility without worrying about hurting your feet or slipping on the wet deck.
• Opt only for a waterproof watch if you intend to wear one. You don’t want to bother taking it off, and on each time you go for a swim.
• As mentioned for women above, the same concept applies to men. A good pair of polarized sunglasses is a must!

Night Party

In the evening, you can still wear casual clothes but a bit more dressy. The thin, soft, and flowy textile is more appropriate for night parties. Bring a light jacket with you. It gets cooler in the evening.

• Princess waist dresses, skirt with flounces, loose pants assorted with dressy tops are the perfect choices. A chic option will be to wear a color-coordinated wrap or a jacket. A long dress harmonized with a nice pair of chandelier earrings is a great option if you opt to dress chicly
• Here, again, avoid high heels. Flats and low-heeled sandals will be perfect and will suit any outfit.
• Men should wear comfortable pants with a dress shirt or even a polo, and a light jacket on top.
• I will say it again, the best shoes to wear on a boat is Sperry, but hey, this is your party, you can pick any other type of boat shoes as long as they are non-marking.
• Girls, even if high heels elongate your legs and make you more attractive. It is preferable to avoid wearing them on a boat. Opt for boating shoes !
• Mosquitoes love humidity, especially in the late afternoon. You should bring a repellent with you. You Never know.
• Try to use only waterproof accessories
• The sun beat down during the day, bring sunscreen and wear long sleeves to protect you from the sun
• You can wear long dresses but not too long to avoid tripping.
• If you are unsure about the type of party, ask the person that organizes the event on the yacht what is and not appropriate.
• It’s easy to get dehydrated on a yacht because you don’t feel the sun as you are most of the time in the water or on the deck and at sea, there are always winds. PS, wear a hat and drink a lot of water!

Final Words!

Now that you know how to dress for a day and night party on a yacht, all you need to do is have a good time!

8 thoughts on “What to Wear to a Yacht Party – Your Dress Code Guide!”

I have a yacht party to go to and I really needed this guide to make sure that I will take whatever I need. It is really easy to forget a few things and later regret once you reach the party. However, in the evening yacht parties, is it okay to wear heels?

Oh, that’s great, I am sure you’ll have fun!

Yes, I agree with you, it is easy to forget things. This is why it is important to write down what you need before you go:) Once you are on the boat, you cannot go back unless you live nearby.

You cannot wear high heels on a boat, there are few reasons to this. It is not comfortable, not safety and it can damage the deck:) You wouldn’t want this happen.

Thank you for the comment and wish you to have unforgettable moments on the yacht party!

Have a wonderful day!

Hi Daniella, I really like that you divided your article into parts like what to wear in the day or in night! And that you pay attention to both men and women is great, too! often, there are only guides for women. Keep going on as active as you are! Your website is catchy!

Thank you for the kind comment, I really appreciate:) Whats women without men and whats men without women? We can’t live without each other:), Have a wonderful day!

I have been on a yacht for a dinner party sailing in heels! It was a bit troublesome especially going up and down stairs.

Is this post geared toward Northeast US or somewhere else in the world? Here in Florida, it is absolutely okay to wear flip flops to a day yacht party as long as they aren’t cheap! Sperry’s or other boat shoes are acceptable at night for men if the rest of the outfit is semi-casual.

Thank you for the comment:)

Yes, this article concerns everyone. No matter the country. Of course, you can wear flip flops , you can even go barefoot if you wish to, but the risk of hurting your feet or slipping on the deck is much higher. Most charter companies require wearing boat shoes because if something happens and someone didn’t follow the guideline, then the company or the owner of the boat will not be covered by their assurance.

However, Sperry’ shoes are the most recommended on boats as they are comfortable and stylish.

But, again, as long as it is non-marking shoes, you are good to go!

I like how you said that the most appropriate clothes for men are loose pants. My wife and I are planning to go on a trip and we have no idea what to wear. I will definitely share this article with my wife to give her ideas of what to wear in case we go to a boat party.

Hi Dereck, This would be a great idea! I am sure your wife will find something nice to wear:) Thank you for the comment and wish you a lovely day!

*2024* YACHT ROCK vintage party attire for real![16 looks + elements]

Posted on Published: January 5, 2024

• Pinterest 497

Wondering what to wear to a vintage Yacht rock party that screams the 70s and 80s vibes?

You have come to the right place as I’m gonna share all key elements in yacht rock party attire!

First thing first, what EXACTLY is yacht rock? Is that different from the regular yacht party attire?

Broadly speaking, yacht rock is a type of popular music genre in the mid-1979s and ’80s.

It blends soft rock, smooth jazz, and blues with southern yachty vibes that are as refreshing as it’s cozy and chill to people.

In the outfit sense, think of the nautical sailing looks with a dash of good 70s and 80s vintage vibes together with some playful and funky elements.

Ahead, I’ve gathered 16 real-life yacht rock-themed party outfit ideas from Instagram along with some pro tips.

Ready? Get inspired!

1. Fun yacht-themed party attire

If you are looking for a failproof look for your coming yacht rock party, embracing the nautical theme always works wonders.

That said, think white, red, and blue for the classic color palette and corporate it with the sailor stripe details or a small navy anchor print.

Trust me, patterns x patterns in one look can never be too over the top for a wild yacht rock party time!

It’s time to get out of your comfort zone!

Trust me, there’s definitely NOT ENOUGH content for vintage fashion these days

If you are the retro girlies, there’s one thing for sure – you have impeccable taste ❤️

If you find this recommendation useful – please kindly share and pin some of the shoes so more vintage girls like you can enjoy the info!

2. A fun nautical striped top

Some of you may worry the horizontal stripes will make them look bigger.

Well, not the case anymore when you pick the flattering design!

In case you wonder, I love this fitted off-shoulder striped top from Amazon.

As a girl with chubby cheeks, the off-shoulder neckline just elongates my neck and instantly sheds down the boldness of the print like magic.

The best part? The fabric type is 95% cotton and 5% spandex so it’s super stretchy and curve-flattering.

Together with the high-waist jean shorts and nice pumps, you’re bound to feel the fanciest and most feminine.

Check out this gorgeous piece here!

3. A statement captain hat for every look

For the lazy girls who want to look party-ready with minimal effort, I’d say throw on a captain hat to nail the look.

But really, it’s the core element of the yacht rock look of all time!

If you don’t want to look too costumey, pair up the yacht rock look with a cute summer dress and espadrilles wedge just looks equally instagrammable.

Again, to blend in with the crowd, think of bright fun hues instead of the classy neutral nude or dark shades.

5. When in doubt, wear a headscarf

This beautiful lady just demonstrates this hip, headscarf-wearing chic look in the best possible way.

Whether you are going to this yacht rock party or a tropical vacation, this styling just looks irresistibly carefree and tasteful.

To add in some retro flare, spice things up with the colorful round sunglasses that scream the perfect vibes.

6. 80s yacht tie-dye attire

To look the finest in the late 70s soft rock fashion, what about having fun with the tie-dye co-ord set that was all the rage during the 1980s? 

Of course, tie-dye is always in style every few years so you can wear them on a ton of occasions!

7. What to wear to a yacht rock radio party

To stand out from the yacht rock radio party, those Barbie pink palm tree suits are sure to boost the aesthetic tenfold.

And guess what, to dress like Popeye, get yourself a pipe just such an extra pop of fun!

8. A retro sailor top for a yacht rock party

For the ladies who prefer a lowkey yacht rock party look, this top below is another lovely piece.

The elegant boat-cut neckline and the darling ribbon details just highlight the beauty of the figure and make you look curvier visually.

The big plus?

There’s a rubber lining around the neckline to make sure the top is in place. I must say that’s a rare design for this price range!

According to the Amazon review, you want to order a size down. 

9. Hawaiian shirt for a yacht rock party

When in doubt, Hawaiian shirts will give you the right dose of yachty vibes.

That said, picking the right pattern is key otherwise you will gravitate towards the luau party.

Take the right balance of tropical vibes and introduce more marine elements to the look.

When in doubt, searching “reclaimed vintage-inspired beach shirt” or treasure hunting from a thrift store always helps!

The skirt from Lilly Pulitzer is always so darling – obsessed .

10. Funny T-shirt for the yacht rock fun

All the navy party costumes are cliché? Well, think again.

This funny captain hat and T-shirt set just breathe sailing and fun into the personal vibe.

Whether you wear this for the Sunday boat party or just randomly throw it on during the weekend, this piece just screams fun in all different ways.

This set sold out quickly. Check out Amazon !

( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ MY SEPT PICKS !! ʕ•̬͡•ʔ

(Continue scrolling for the article!)

11. Couple yacht rock party outfits

When it comes to other essentials, khaki short shorts, and a colorful cami top just give the yacht rock attire a modern mix. 

For petite girls, consider pairing up the body-hugging top with wide-leg pants and wedges.

It just contours the body proportion and helps you achieve an effortlessly chic look.

Yes, I’m a born fashionista.

12. One-piece retro sailor swimsuit

It takes me a long time to find the perfect yacht rock swimsuit and I just can’t be any more proud when I find this gorgeous piece.

A swimsuit with a halter neck is a big plus for me as it just comes in extra support and gives your chest the right boast.

With the horizontal stripe on the chest area, the voluminous effect is sure to impress.

As a pear-shaped girl, this swimsuit just flatters my figure in every single way.

13. Fun leaf print captain cap

If you are bored with the classic white and blue captain hat, this one with the leaf print just complements your nautical-themed party in the most distinctive way. 

Those gold embroidered badges on the front just scream “I’ve got a style and I KNOW it”.

Be the chicest captain in the house!

This is so random… BUT

hey ladies, why not quickly do an affirmation and feel instantly better?

This new year, I’m trying not only to share fashion tips but come up with ways to instill body positivity in all women who are reading my articles – aka YOU !

Instead of just reading it, say it loud or murmur the quotes (if you are in public) to maximize the effect.

Ready? Here we go.

I love my body. She is my forever home and sanctuary.

Sassy isn’t a shape, it’s an attitude.

Work out because I love my body – not because I hate it.

I can love myself and change my body at the same time. No guilt about that.

It is completely normal to have tummy rolls. I come to realize that social media isn’t showing the reality… at all.

My happiest moments in life had nothing to do with the way my body looked.

I don’t have to be pretty like her, I can be pretty like …ME.

I AM perfect imperfection.

What are your thoughts on that? I hope that makes you feel better (as you deserved).

Please help me pass the body positivity message in your community. #womenhelpwomen

Alright, now keep on reading!

14. 70s yacht rock fashion

Sometimes, having fun is as simple as dressing up and striking a pose with your besties together!

Don’t know about you but I’m the happiest when floating in the sea. That’s for sure!

15. What to wear to a yacht rock concert

To show your love towards the yacht rock style in parties and everyday life, a statement “Prestige worldwide boats & hoes” tee is such a lovely choice.

These days, people love mixing classic and casual pieces together.

To jazz up the T-shirt look, consider adding in the blue blazer, white pants, and loafers to finish up the set.

16. What to wear to a yacht rock party

Last but not least, here’s my favorite look.

A captain hat with a striped cut-out jumpsuit that looks as simple as it looks hot and sassy.

To bring this look to the good old 70s, slip in the red kitten heels just add an unexpected twist to the get-up.

Divers from the Marine Rescue Division at Dubai Ports Police have recovered a sedan that plunged off the dockside in the Al Jaddaf area at Bur Dubai. In a video released on Monday, September 16, several officers and marine rescue divers can be seen salvaging the vehicle at the accident site.

The car skidded off the pier in the Al Jaddaf area and plunged into the water, crashing into a parked yacht. The impact caused the vehicle to overturn and sink to the bottom of the sea.

The two young men, the driver and passenger, reportedly survived the incident. They managed to escape the submerged car through its shattered windshield, which broke after collision with the yacht.

Col Ali Abdullah Al Naqbi, Deputy Director of the Ports Police Station, said that the Command and Control Centre in the General Department of Operations received a report at 2.20pm about a car that had collided with a yacht and fallen into the water, with two people inside.

Col Ali said, "Marine rescue patrols, maritime security units, and a local area patrol quickly rushed to the scene. Fortunately, the two young men had escaped from the car, and their safety was ensured, with no one else found inside."

The divers went to the seabed, assessed the car's position, and secured it with ropes. Marine rescue divers then deployed a recovery crane, ensuring all safety protocols were followed, to retrieve the heavily tinted white sedan from the water and onto the dockside.

Captain Abdul Rahman Bourguiba, Head of the Marine Rescue Division, reiterated the importance of vehicle maintenance, urging motorists to regularly check the condition of their vehicles and conduct routine inspections. He stressed the responsibility of being cautious while driving, following all safety measures, and strictly adhering to traffic laws and regulations, including adhering to speed limits.

He also encouraged the public to contact the Command and Control Centre in the General Department of Operations at 999 for emergencies and at 901 for non-emergency situations. Additionally, he advised marine users to take advantage of the 'Sail Safely' service that reports marine incidents and shares locations promptly.

How Taylor Swift subtly addresses her iconic sad boat photo on 1989 (Taylor's Version)

Sad Keanu, but make it Taylor's Version.

You've heard of the Sad Keanu meme , but have you heard of Sad Taylor?

Longtime Swifties will recall a photo that made the rounds online in 2013 (below), featuring Taylor Swift sitting glumly by herself on a boat in the Virgin Islands wearing a blue dress and black sunglasses. According to reports at the time , Swift and Harry Styles had been vacationing together, got into a disagreement, and broke up, with said photo capturing her leaving the trip alone. (It all worked out for Swift, though, who would go on to create 1989 , her second record to win the coveted Grammy for Album of the Year.)

While the music video for the 1989 song "Out of the Woods" featured Swift in a blue dress, leading some to speculate if it was the dress or perhaps an allusion to it, she's never overtly addressed the "sad boat photo" moment in her music... until now.

On the just-released re-recording of the album, 1989 (Taylor's Version) , the all-new vault track "Is It Over Now?" contains a fairly obvious nod to the alleged incident with the lyrics, "Blue dress / On a boat / Your new girl / Is my clone." (Fans have also pointed out that the latter half of the lyric seems like a companion or response to Styles' song "From the Dining Table," which includes the lyrics, "Woke up the girl who looked just like you / I almost said your name.")

"Is It Over Now?" is a breakup song from the perspective of a narrator wondering exactly when a doomed relationship ended (while also getting in a few good jabs at the ex, naturally). It seems to include several other references to Styles, including that infamous alleged snowmobile accident in 2012 , lending credence to the theory that it could be about the former couple and their ill-fated trip to the Caribbean — and by extension, yes, that sadly hilarious photo.

If "Is It Over Now?" is a vault track new to most listeners' ears, it was technically written back around the time the rest of 1989 was. Swift and Styles have since moved on. They appeared to have no bad blood when they were seen chatting it up and applauding each other at the 2021 Grammys, and then fist-bumping at the 2023 ceremony, much to fans' delight. The two globe-conquering pop stars would probably laugh about it all today.

Riviera appoints Sun Country Marine in southern California

23 January 2019 Dominique SALANDRE News 0

Australia’s luxury motor yacht builder, Riviera, continues to grow in the Americas with the appointment of Sun Country Marine as representative in southern California.

Sun Country Marine has three iconic coastal locations – at San Diego, Dana Point and Newport Beach. The company celebrated its 30th anniversary at the end of last year by opening two additional coastal offices, at Marina Del Ray and a second office in Newport Beach.

We were particularly impressed by Riviera

Sun Country Marine CEO Mike Basso said: “We are delighted to join the Riviera family. We have a great synergy with Riviera in our commitment to quality and to owner care.

“We were particularly impressed by Riviera’s spectacular nine-model showcase during the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show late last year. It demonstrated a genuine commitment to the highest level of presentation of quality motor yachts” said Mike Basso from Sun Country Marine.

“Riviera’s five unique collections across Flybridge, Sport Yachts, SUVs, Sports Motor Yachts and the classically styled Belize models offer the options our clients demand. Our commitment to ensuring clients can directly touch and inspect new motor yachts is borne out through the nine new Riviera motor yachts, including three SUV models and three Sport Yachts that are now in production. We also have two 39 Sports Motor Yachts and a 395 SUV that will be arriving in southern California in early 2019.”

“We are proud to join Riviera to display three new motor yachts at this weekend’s San Diego Boat Show. We will have 445 and 525 SUV models and a 4800 Sport Yacht for boating enthusiasts to inspect.”   

Riviera CEO Wes Moxey said that Sun Country Marine has for many years demonstrated a thorough understanding of the motor yacht market in California and is held in high esteem.

Riviera has a large and loyal owner base in California

“Riviera has a large and loyal owner base in California and Sun Country Marine will provide powerful support and service to our existing owners as well as to a growing market of luxury motor yacht enthusiasts.  

“Our world-renowned quality, luxury, innovation, blue-water sea-keeping abilities and superior owner support will be further enhanced with the appointment of Mike Basso and his Sun Country Marine team.”

Sun Country Marine offers three different locations : San Diego Yacht Center, Dana Point Yacht Center and Newport Beach.
