Last time we were on vacation, we collected all kind of shells, and if they had holes in them so I could string them on my chains, even better. There’s nothing like an organic beachy piece of jewelry (or bag or shoe) that gets you straight in the mood for summer. Chan Luu has done a lot of good options like this cluster necklace that’s perfect mixed in with other gold or silver pieces.
Simon Miller’s little basked bag is adorned with a bunch of shells that almost act like sequins.
This shell and pearl necklace feels like a glamorous piece made for a mermaid.
And these fun slides could easily get dressed up for a summer wedding.
This tiny pearl/mini shell cutie makes the perfect beachy strand.
These cowrie earrings get an extra shot of fancy with gold details and little gems.
Here’s a cool double cowrie bracelet that packs a punch worn all on its own.
Zara’s fringe pouch would make a really good evening bag (plus it’s now on sale).
Eliou’s pearl and shell anklet wraps around twice so it looks like three in one (or you can wear it as necklace).
This Shiva Shell ring has a tiny diamond in the middle that elevates it just a touch.
I love this cool black shell pendant from Heaven Mayhem for every day, but it would also work well as an elegant, dressy piece.
And how much fun would it be to pull out this little pocket mirror from your bag for touch-ups or spinach-in-the-teeth checks?
Yes! The craze is real!
I’m heading to the beach on Monday. I may have to bring my dremel tool.
