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.

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.

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 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.

What to Wear to a Boat Party: Ultimate Guide for a Stylish Yacht, Komodo Boat, and Cruise Party

Hi, Party People, Planning to attend a boat party and unsure what to wear? Whether it’s a luxurious yacht party, an adventurous Komodo boat party , or a sophisticated cruise party, dressing the part is essential for making a stylish statement while staying comfortable. In this guide, we’ll provide you with fashion tips and outfit ideas, ensuring you look fabulous for any boat party occasion.

Table of Contents

Factors to Consider When Choosing Your Boat Party Outfit

The weather plays a crucial role in determining your boat party outfit. For tropical destinations like Komodo or summer yacht parties, opt for lightweight, breathable fabrics such as cotton, linen, or silk. These materials will keep you cool and comfortable even in hot and muggy conditions. For cooler climates or evening events, layering is key. A stylish wrap, light jacket, or shawl can provide warmth without sacrificing style.

Example: If you’re heading to a Komodo boat party during the day, a flowy sundress or a pair of linen shorts with a breezy blouse would be perfect. For an evening yacht party in cooler weather, consider layering a chic blazer over a cocktail dress.

Theme and Formality

Boat parties can range from casual to formal. Pay attention to the event’s theme and dress code to ensure your outfit is appropriate. Formal cruise parties may require cocktail attire, while casual Komodo boat parties may call for relaxed and vibrant ensembles.

Example: A formal cruise party might have a black-tie theme, where a floor-length gown or a tailored suit would be appropriate. Conversely, a tropical-themed Komodo boat party would encourage bright colors, floral prints, and casual attire.

Comfort and Safety

Comfort is key, especially on a boat. Choose outfits that allow easy movement and consider footwear with non-slip soles to prevent accidents on deck. Avoid overly tight or restrictive clothing that might hinder your enjoyment of the event.

Example: Choose a jumpsuit that povides ease of movement or a skirt that allows you to walk comfortably around the boat. Opt for shoes with good grip, such as boat shoes or sandals with rubber soles.

What to Wear for a Boat Party

Get ready for your next boat party with our top outfit ideas! Find the perfect balance of style & comfort for both day & evening looks. Ideal for travelers.

If you are invited to a boat party, the pressure is on you to find the perfect outfit. It can be tricky to dress for a boat party because you want to look stylish but also be comfortable and practical.

For women, wear comfortable flat shoes like Toms, sandals, or flip flops. For an outfit, women should wear a romper, wide leg pants, a skirt, or a jumpsuit. Accessorize with a hat or bandana. Guys should wear a light jacket or blazer, off-white trousers, with a button down or a polo shirt.

However, you may want to dress up a bit more for an evening boat party. A maxi dress or formal jumpsuit is always a good choice. A cute clutch and some statement jewelry will finish off your look perfectly. Gentlemen will look sharp with sports coats and dress pants.

This blog post will give you tips on what to wear for a boat or yacht party. We will help you choose clothes that will make you look and feel your best.

How Do You Choose the Right Outfit for a Boat Party?

There are a few things to keep in mind when choosing your outfit for a boat party. First, you will want to consider the location of the party. If it is taking place on a yacht in the middle of summer, you will want to dress differently than if the party is taking place on a small boat in the fall.

The season and location will help you determine what kind of clothing to wear. You will also want to think about the activities that will be taking place at the party. If it is a more laid-back gathering, you can dress casually. But if there will be dancing or other activities, you will want to choose an outfit that is comfortable and will not get in the way.

Finally, you will  want to make sure your clothing is appropriate for the weather. You will want to wear light, airy fabrics if it is hot outside. But if it is cold or windy, you will want to dress in layers to stay warm.

What to Wear to a Boat or Yacht Party – General Daytime Pieces

Daytime looks for a boat or yacht party are all about being chic and stylish but also practical. You will want to choose clothes that are comfortable and will not get in the way if you need to move around.

Anything made of linen will be perfect for a boat party as it is a natural fiber that breathes well. It is also wrinkle-resistant, so you will look good even if you have been dancing or moving around a lot. Linen is the absolute staple look of "fun on the water."

A hat is a great way to protect your face from the sun and also add a bit of style to your outfit. If you are not used to wearing hats, now is the time to start! Choose a hat that matches your personal style, and do not be afraid to experiment.

Light-Colored Items

Wearing light colors will reflect the sunlight, which is perfect for days spent on the water. Plus, the lighter coloring pairs with the overall aesthetic of partying on a boat. White is always a good choice, but feel free to experiment with other bright colors as well.

Preppy Pieces

It is no secret that boat parties invoke a sense of "preppy style fashion" This can be anything from a seersucker dress to Panama hats. If you do not normally dress preppy, now is the time to try it out!

Polarized sunglasses are a must for any boat party. Not only do they protect your eyes from the sun, but they also help you look cool and mysterious. Choose a pair of sunglasses that is comfortable to wear and that goes with your outfit.

Sweater or Stylish Windbreaker

Even if it is warm out, it can get chilly on the water. Bring along a sweater or windbreaker to keep you comfortable. Choose a style that matches your outfit so you will still look good, even if you have to layer up.

Daytime Boat Party Looks for Women:

Daytime boat party looks for women can  be anything from casual to preppy to chic. It all depends on the vibe of the party and what you are comfortable wearing.

Rompers and Jumpsuits

Rompers and jumpsuits are great options for a boat party because they are both fashionable and comfortable. They also will not get in the way if you want to dance or move around. Choose a romper or jumpsuit that is made of light, airy fabric to keep you cool in the summer heat.

A Matching Set

A matching set is another great option for a boat party. It is easy to put together, and you will look put-together and on trend. Choose a set that is comfortable and made of light, airy fabric. Matching sets can be anything from a crop top and skirt to shorts and a button-down combo.

Long and Flowy Dresses

Long, flowy dresses are perfect for a boat party. They also will not get in the way if you want to dance or move around. Plus, a longer dress will help avoid any unwarranted "Marilyn Monroe" moments on the windy open water.

Linen Pants

If you are feeling the "cool girl" vibe on your boat party day, linen pants are the way to go. They are extremely comfortable while still giving an air of confidence and fashion.

Blue Striped Shirt (Women)

Wrap Skirts

Pair a wrap skirt with your bikini top or a cute fitted tank for a boat party-ready look. Wrap skirts are easy to wear and are very flattering on most body types. They can also easily transition to evening wear with the right blouse. 

Wearing high heels on a boat is a recipe for disaster. Not only will you be more likely to trip and fall, but you will also sink into the deck or dock. Instead, opt for flat shoes like sandals, espadrilles, or ballet flats. They will be more comfortable and practical, and you will not have to worry about losing your balance.

Even if you do not go for a swim, having your swimsuit on hand is always a good idea. You never know when you might want to jump in the water or take a dip in the pool. Most importantly, choose a swimsuit that you feel confident in. Depending on the look, you can pair it perfectly with your on-deck outfit with a stylish cover up or as a shirt.

Waterproof Makeup

No one wants their makeup to melt or wash away while they are out on the water. Waterproof makeup is a must for any boat party. Choose products that will stay put in the heat and humidity and that will not come off if you get wet.

Oversized Straw Hats

Straw hats are a summertime staple, and they are perfect for boat parties (while protecting your skin!). Choose an oversized hat for maximum sun protection and style.

Woven Purse

A woven purse is a perfect accessory for a boat party. It is the perfect aesthetic for a daytime boat party; plus, it is big enough to fit all your essentials, like sunscreen, sunglasses, and waterproof makeup.

Daytime Boat Party Looks for Men:

Women do not get to have all the fun! There are plenty of top-notch daytime boat party looks for men.  

A Seersucker

A Seersucker, also known as "railroad stripe," is a puckered fabric that's perfect for summertime. A seersucker shirt is light and airy, which will keep you cool in the summer heat. Plus, it has a preppy look that is perfect for boat parties.

Chinos and Jacket

This is a great option for men who want to look stylish but also be comfortable. The chinos will keep you cool, and the jacket will protect you from the sun or wind. Choose a light-colored chino so you do not get too hot, and make sure the jacket fits well, so it does not blow around in the wind.

While light-colored options are generally preferred, a navy chino also works in a boat environment. Just be sure to pair it with a lighter colored top. 

Cropped Trousers and V-Neck T-shirt

Cropped trousers are another iconic boat party look for men. It is comfortable and stylish, and it will not get in the way if you want to move around or dance. Pair it with a V-neck T-shirt for a relaxed yet put-together look.

Tailored Shorts and a Polo Shirt

Choose light-colored and fitted shorts for a more "preppy" look. This is a particularly popular look for summer boat parties on the United State's northeast coast (i.e., The Hamptons, Martha's Vineyard, etc.). Choose a polo shirt that fits well and is made of breathable fabric. You do not want to be too hot while you are out on the water.

Half-Sleeved T-Shirt

This is a bit more casual take on the previous look. However, you can also roll up the sleeves for an even more relaxed look. Half-sleeved T-shirts generally pair well with chinos or cropped trousers.

Loafers or Boat Shoes

When attending a boat or yacht party, opt for loafers or boat shoes. They will be more comfortable and practical than your day-to-day shoes, and you will nt have to worry about losing your balance. Plus, they will help you look stylish and put-together. They are called "boat shoes" for a reason!

Panama Hats

A Panama hat is a must for any summer boat party. These hats can easily be styled with casual shorts and a polo, or go "Riviera style with a linen suit.

These are some great looks for a daytime boat party. Whether you are going for a preppy look, or something more casual, make sure you choose comfortable and stylish clothing that will keep you cool in the summer heat. Do not forget to accessorize with Panama hats, straw hats, and boat shoes!

What to Wear to a Boat or Yacht Party – Evening

Evening looks for a boat or yacht party are a bit more formal, but that does not mean you can not have fun with your outfit. Look your best while still being comfortable at sea.

Evening Boat Party Looks for Women:

When the sun sets, it is time to step up your fashion game.  

A Cocktail Dress

If you are attending a more formal evening event, opt for a cocktail dress. Choose a style that flatters your figure, and that is made of light, airy fabric. You do not want to be too hot while you are out on the water.

A Little Black Dress

A classic little black dress is always a good choice for an evening event. It is elegant and timeless, and it can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.

Pearl Jewelry

Nothing says "out to sea" like a set of pearls. They are elegant and classic, and they will help you look put together. You can even wear casual pieces with your daytime yacht look. Just make sure they are real pearls!

Statement Earrings

If you are looking to add a little bit of sparkle to your outfit, opt for statement earrings. They will dress up any outfit, and they will help you stand out in a crowd. Just make sure they are not too heavy or bulky, so they do not weigh you down.

A Cute Clutch

Evening boat parties are the perfect opportunity to bust out that cute clutch you have been dying to use. Choose a color or pattern that compliments your outfit, and make sure it is big enough to hold your essentials (phone, lip gloss, etc.).

Evening Boat Party Looks for Men:

​​Gentlemen, it is time to step up your style game with your evening boat party looks. 

A Sport Coat or Blazer

For a more upscale boat party, you can not go wrong with a sports coat or blazer. It is the perfect way to dress up your look without being too formal. You can even pair a blazer with a well-fitted T-shirt for a more stylish yet casual look.

Dress Pants and Jacket

If you are attending a more formal evening event, opt for dress pants and a jacket. Choose light-colored pants, so you do not get too hot, and make sure the jacket fits well, so it does not blow around in the strong seaside wind. You can even pair a blazer with a well-fitted T-shirt for a more stylish yet casual appearance.

Button-Down Shirt

A button-down shirt is a classic choice for a boat party. It is comfortable and stylish, and it can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Choose a light-colored shirt to stay cool in the summer heat, or go for a darker shade if you are attending a more formal event.

You can not go wrong with a nice pair of khaki pants. They are comfortable and versatile, and they will help you look put-together. Choose a well-fitted pair of pants, so you do not look like you are swimming in them, and pair them with a button-down shirt or polo.

A Statement Belt

Whether you are wearing shorts or pants, a statement belt is a great way to add a pop of style to your look.

You can not go wrong with any of these evening boat party looks. Simply make sure you are comfortable and that you choose an outfit that compliments your figure. With the right outfit, you will be sure to turn heads at your next event.

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.

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 Boat | Boat Outfits Ideas You’ll Love

When you’re planning a boat trip, the first thing you need to think about is what to wear. There are a variety of different types of boat trips, from leisurely cruises on a pontoon boat to sailing expeditions in the Caribbean. 

No matter what type of boat trip you’re taking, there are plenty of outfit options that will make you look and feel your best. And I can tell you from experience, that being comfortable makes the trip ten times more enjoyable. In this post, I’ll take a look at some cute sailing outfits for women and show you how to put together the perfect summer yacht party outfit.

Be sure to also research what you should be eating on a boat trip to ensure you don’t go hungry anywhere along the way.  

Casual Boat Ride Outfits

Casual boat trips are complimented perfectly by comfortable boat ride outfits. And what you’re wearing should certainly be the first thing on your boat trip checklist . Here are some of the essential items of clothing to make up your boat attire. 

Casual loose fitting shorts

Comfort comes first when it comes to casual boat rides. And what says comfort more than a pair of loose-fitting shorts. They are perfect for the warmer weather as they’re airy but still allow your legs to catch a tan (if you enjoy that sort of thing). 

Peak cap or hat

Having a peak cap or hat with you is essential for keeping the sun off of your face. The last thing you want is to get off the boat only to discover that your face is a brighter shade of red. It also comes in handy to shade your eyes from the sun and the glare on the water, which can get quite intense on sunny days. 

If you are not one for wearing shorts, then a pair of boho pants might be a better fit for you. If you’re looking for boat cruise outfit ideas for ladies, then pairing your boho pants with a strappy top will not only be a good look but be incredibly practical at the same time. 

The loose-fitting pants will ensure you don’t get too hot when the weather is warm, but there is also enough material to keep you covered from a chilly breeze on the water. 

A jumpsuit is the ideal summer boat cruise outfit because it is light and flowy. If you are planning on hopping off the boat for a little swim, then you can simply wear your jumpsuit over your costume, which is my go-to. 

If you plan on wearing long pants or shorts, then a t-shirt is an ideal option for those with pale skin or who tend to burn easily. Keeping your shoulders covered goes a long way in protecting your most vulnerable areas from the harsh sun’s rays. 

River rain jacket

Weather can change so quickly when you’re on the water, so it’s important to take something to keep you warm. A river rain jacket is ideal as it’s waterproof, so you’re safe from splash, mist, and rain if the weather takes a turn for the worst. 

Boat Party Outfit

If you have the pleasure of partying on the ocean, then you need a killer yacht party outfit. Luckily, yacht party attire for women is not that hard to come by, but it does need to cover a variety of criteria. While looking good maybe your number one, being comfortable and warm are also both essential. 

Here are some of my top recommendations for adding to your yacht outfit ideas. 

Two-piece outfit with a maxi skirt

If you’re wondering what to wear to a boat party, then a two-piece outfit might be the way to go. Not only is it a head-turning look, but it is incredibly comfortable and shows just enough skin to make it yacht party appropriate. 

The great thing about a mesh dress is that it can be worn over a bikini or swimsuit to take the chill out of the air, and to make you feel slightly more clothed. It’s easy to get in and out of if you are planning on swimming and allows your bikini to dry through your mesh dress. 

Summerlong jumpsuit

If you want to look great without showing off too much skin, then a long jumpsuit might just be the female yacht party attire for you. It’s fashionable and flattering on all body types, allowing you to look put together without much thought at all about what you need to wear. 

Long summer beach dress

A long dress with strategic cutouts allows you to show off some skin while still keeping it classy. It’s another piece that can be thrown over a bikini when you are finished tanning or swimming, making it ultra-convenient. 

Outfit for Sailing

If you are going sailing on the open ocean, then you need boat gear to suit your needs. These are some items you could be adding to your sailing outfits to make your experience a whole lot more comfortable. Whether you’re rafting in Glacier National Park or heading out on open waters, these clothing options are sure to come in handy. 

A rash guard is something that acts as a swimsuit but prevents you from getting rashes when you are walking around wet for too long the way a swimsuit would cause a rash. This is perfect to go under other clothes and be worn by itself on the warmer days. 

Waterproof and windproof pants

Waterproof and windproof pants are an absolute must. As we all know, the weather on the water can turn in a matter of seconds, and you don’t want to be caught in the cold. These pants will protect you from the spray of the water, but also from the icy oceanic breeze while you’re sailing. 

Waterproof and windproof jacket

This can be worn over your rash vest to keep you warm when the weather turns. A waterproof and windproof jacket is one of those things that are essential to take with you, whether or not the weather is good when you’re leaving on your sailing expedition. I have never regretted having that extra layer of protection from the cold. 

Water shoes

If you go sailing, you’re going to get wet. To avoid getting your new pair of sneakers soaked to the brim by taking water shoes. They won’t get damaged by the salty water and will help you to grip the deck even if there is plenty of water on board. 

Life vest 

It’s not uncommon in sailing to get swept overboard, but when you do, you want to make sure that you’ll remain bobbing on the surface of the water. The easiest way to do this is to wear a life vest. 

Frequently Asked Questions:

When it comes to what you should be wearing on a boat, there are a couple of other questions that people generally ask. As I tend to take boat trips rather regularly I feel that I can help you out if you are wondering any of the following questions.

Should you wear jeans on a boat?

Although jeans are alright for a boat party, they are generally not your best bet. When they get wet they can be very uncomfortable to wear, which means you are likely to take them off at some point or another. If your heart is set on wearing jeans on your next boat ride, I would recommend taking a change of clothes with you just in case you happen to get wet somewhere along the way.

What should I wear on a boat when it’s cold?

it’s best to layer your clothes when the weather is a little on the cold side. This way, when it warms up you can always peel off a couple of layers. It’s important to take a windbreaker with you to fight off the sometimes icy winds that work their way across the water. Anything waterproof is likely to come in handy when you are aboard a boat.

How cold is too cold for boating?

Boating when it is too cold can become a risky ordeal so it’s best to stay on dry land at any temperatures below 70 degrees Fahrenheit. This is because falling into the water can cause hypothermia to set in rather quickly, and that isn’t something anyone wants to have to experience.

Final Thoughts on What to Wear on a Boat Ride 

Now that you have a better idea of what to wear on a yacht day trip, you can make your experience a whole lot more comfortable and enjoyable. Pack these items in for a cruise in New Jersey or a yacht party off the coast of Miami and you’ll be styling the whole way. 

Whether you’re wondering what to wear on a pontoon boat or simply what to wear boating of any kind, this post will help you find the right clothing items to make up your outfit. Wherever you’re heading off to, enjoy the boat trip!

What is a Boat Party?

In very simple words, a boat party is a social gathering where people assemble for a time period to chill together.

Or simply that period of time when you can flaunt your white linen pants in a classy pose while wearing expensive sunglasses and holding a glass of champagne And just celebrate life.

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,

“What to wear on a Miami boat party?”

“What accessories should I match with my party outfits?”

“How can I stand out from other guests?”

We frequently hear this from customers who are holding events on Miami Yachts.

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.

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!

Michelle Obama Wore a Waist-Length Braid and the Most Divisive Shoes

And she put an unconventional twist on the classic power suit at the DNC.

Getty Images

Michelle Obama is redefining what the classic power suit looks like. It’s no secret that the former first lady is a political style trendsetter in Washington, D.C. , popularizing arm-baring styles, vibrant hues, and high-low outfits from emerging designers during her time in the White House. As Obama made an appearance at the 2024 Democratic National Convention on August 20, she continued to push boundaries by pairing a waist-length braid with a very unconventional suit.

As the Becoming author headed to the stage in Chicago, she showed off her sartorial skills in navy blue separates from Monse’s Resort 2025 collection. The sleeveless jacket, which featured a crossover design in the front, bared Obama’s arms and cinched in her waist with a matching belt studded with silver hardware. The effortless silhouette of the blazer played into the peplum trend, thanks to a longer fit and large pockets at the bottom that flanked a row of buttons. The fitted matching trousers contrasted the relaxed shape of the jacket, and hit just above Obama’s ankles, framing her divisive footwear. She showed her support for team kitten heels, wearing a pair of pointy-toed black Jimmy Choo pumps with just an inch of extra height.

While Obama’s chic DNC outfit set her apart from more traditional sartorial choices at the event, like Kamala Harris’s camel brown Chloé separates and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s lilac purple sheath dress, it was the former first lady’s hairstyle that really had people talking. She debuted a chic braid that reached past her waist, a far cry from the coiffed lob that she wore during her White House years. 

While Obama—who shared a sweet PDA moment with her husband and former president Barack Obama during the event—might be several years out from the White House, it’s safe to say that she still knows how to nail political style.

Tackling moscow by train and boat.

Our first full day in Moscow started fairly late since we were still catching up on sleep.  Around 1, we finally were able to get our act together and get out the door. 

We stopped by a cafe to get some breakfast and headed over to the Red Square.  Since the festival is going on, we had to go through metal detectors.  Once we cleared security, we reached the State Historical Museum which provided an entrance to the Red Square.

We walked the length of the Red Square, passing by the Kazan cathedral.

Under normal conditions, the Red Square is a large walking area with the State Historical Museum on one end and St. Basil's on the other end.  On the sides is the Kremlin wall on one side and then the GUM shopping mall and the Kazan cathedral on the other side.  Presently, the walking area has been considerably narrowed and the fesitval grounds occupying a large space between the Kremlin and the mall.

We even asked a stranger to take our picture!

After walking around the Red Square, we had to leave to meet up with our Metro Tour.  

Moscow has famously pretty metro stations so metro tours are quite popular.  We booked a relatively inexpensive tour through a tour group which met outside of the Red Square.

On our way, we passed by the Kremlin gardens and the tomb to the unknown soldier and the eternal flame.

We soon met up with our group which, fortunately, was only 5 people.  Our guide told us that we were going to visit 8 stations during the 1.5 hour tour.  

Honestly, a lot of the stations blended in to me so I won't be able to give you a detailed description of all of them.  However, I did learn that there are 222 metro stations and the trains come every 2-3 minutes reliably.  For that reason, Moscow > DC. 

One of the first metro stations we visited had bronze statues all over of various depictions.  Many of the statues had superstitions tied to them.  For example, for a statue of the dog, it's held that if you rub the nose of the dog, you'll have good luck.  Consequently, most of the statue is tarnished - except for the nose.  I joked to Tomas that they probably rotate the "good luck" portion of the statue to ensure the entire statue gets polished.

However, I do remember some of the stations.

Novoslobodskaya is a station adorned with stained glass on the walls.

There was also Belarusskaya, which paid tribute to Belarus.

Another station which name I cannot remember but had pretty mosaics in the ceilings.

My favorite station was Komsomolskaya.  It's the busiest station and a hub for other connecting trains.  It was built during Statlin times and he wanted the station to embody beauty to set a good first impression to Russia.

I'd seen pictures of it beforehand since it's the most famous but it's so much more impressive in person.

Look at these ceilings!

Overall it was a very interesting tour.  Not sure of any other city which could offer a metro tour.  DC certainly can't...

After the tour, we headed back of the hotel to rest for a bit.  We had purchased tickets to a tour hour boat down the Moscow river.  The tickets were good for any time on any day and the boats left every 20min.  We decided to knock the tour out that day and headed over to the pier.  

We arrived at the pier and saw a boat by the company we had purchased from boarding.  We approached and they shook their head and said it wasn't the right boat. 

So we waited for another boat.

Another boat came along by the same company we had purchased from so weapproached them.  Again - we were told it wasn't the right boat and the boat we were looking for was coming.  

A third boat came along which was NOT by the company we had purchased from.  By this point, it had been longer than 20min waiting and I was starting to suspect that the correct boat was actually one of the ones which turned us away.   We approached the 3rd boat to ask if they knew which boat we should be on.  However, when we approached,  they waved us aboard without scanning our tickets.

So, we boarded the 3rd boat....which was definitely not ours.

We settled into an upper deck, open air table to take in the views.

We passed by pretty buildings.

The somewhat impressive cathedral of Christ the Savior.

This random statue.

After about hour on the cruise, Tomas remarked that it had been about an hour so we should be turning around soon.  I reminded him that we actually had no idea how long this cruise was or where we would be dropped off.  Since we were on the wrong boat.

Fortunately, it did turn around and took us back to the pier.  

For dinner, we decided to go to this burger place, Black Star Burger, which our guide told us about.  Tomas really liked his - I thought mine was OK.  It was a decent size patty with a mountain of Cole slaw on top.  We've realized that apparently Russians dislike getting their hands dirty while eating so some restaurants will give out gloves to use.  This particular restaurant gave out black gloves.

Tomas modeling our dinner.

Since little mum has been asking about pictures which show my feet, I assume she wanted to see my new shoes.  I recently bought Allbirds which are suppose to be super comfortable walking shoes which you wear without socks and can be washed.  I didn't wear them too extensively beforehand, so that was probably my first error.  I also didn't bring another pair of good walking shoes,  which was likely my second error.  The Allbirds were great the first two days without socks.  Midway through the third day, my right foot was quite unhappy. Left foot was a trooper. So, now I have a bandaid on the heel of my right foot and wear socks.
