Is a starfish considered nautical?

Hmm…

I confess that I had to google this question because I figured anything having to do with the ocean must fall under the nautical category.  According to Wikipedia a starfish is not included in the nautical category, but the civilized world seems to think it should be.

When I decided to wear my navy top with white stripes today, I felt a nautical vibe.  So I added my Brighton Starfish collection to the mix and called my outfit nautical.  I don’t have any sailboats or sailor paraphernalia and that’s okay… this is nautical my way
