Starfish Jewellery Is Making Waves & It’s Everything You Need To Nail Mermaidcore
“Mermaid style” or “mermaidcore” has seen a rise in Google searches by 736% this year. It seems everyone wants to have their very own sartorial Ariel moment. Starfish jewellery, from starfish necklaces to pearl-adorned and starfish earrings, is at the micro trend‘s heart, and we’ve got you covered with the best pieces designed with sandy toes and salty skin in mind.
It’s those final flourishes to an outfit that really make it. Starfish jewels are our current obsession if you want to add a little mermaidcore to your summer outfits. We’ve spotted an array of seascape-inspired charms and embellishments on the Instagram style set, and they are as glamorous as they are quirky, whether worn on the beach with a cute pastel swimsuit or paired up with a flowing maxi dress in sticky London heatwaves.
In fact, seascape-inspired anything is everywhere right now, from linen co-ords adorned with fish prints to rustic rope necklaces holding chunky starfish-shaped charms. Check out Zara, Etsy and Anthropologie for boho-inspired pieces that look fun against all your summer looks.
For something a little more glam, a golden starfish-shaped earring is just the ticket. And it’s nothing new. Starfish earrings date back to the golden era of Hollywood, when stars would pair the jewellery piece with floor-sweeping red carpet gowns. We love the unashamedly OTT size of Rixo’s Zeina Earrings – perfect for adding a touch of personality to a wedding guest look. Or, for something daintier, Orelia’s Starfish & Pearl Stud Earrings are the perfect everyday finish.
The trend goes beyond earrings this season, with offbeat choices worn in unusual ways. Think starfish-shaped hair accessories woven into a chunky plait on the beach or a nonchalant charm worn around your ankle – sandy, beach-sunken toes a must.
