Shell necklace: 40 inspirations to make you fall in love with the accessory

Shell necklaces have become popular with women, especially in tropical regions, for their versatility, delicacy and mermaid touch.

And speaking of mermaids, mermaids are already an old trend, but that invaded the style of several celebrities and, with that, ended up winning the streets. Several brands such as Valentino, Elie Saab and Burberry have already used this universe of inspiration for their shows.

The image and personal style consultancy, Karina Nunes says that the success is linked to the fact that it is a super feminine, subtle style, in addition to having a mythological aura that enchants women. “Mermaids have always been part of the imagination, so feeling like one of them is like fulfilling a childhood dream.”

More sober looks are a great choice when combining accessories inspired by mermaids, so it is possible to abuse a little more chokers with shell shapes and whelk chokers, for example.

Those who like to be daring can invest in textured pieces that resemble scales, leather, sequins and abuse shades such as green, blue, lilac and light pink. For the look not to be too loaded, it is essential to dose the references. “If the clothes are very ‘mermaid style’, the accessories should be more discreet, smaller and without too many colors”, explains Karina.

Currently, the most sought after styles of shell necklaces are the more discreet ones, in elegant materials such as silver, bronze, or even gold. They are beautiful and work super well for any style. The simplest ones, with shells or natural whelks, are better in the summer, in very beachy environments. During the cold days it is also possible to use the trend, but those with a sophisticated footprint are more successful this season, because they are harmonious with the rest of the look.
