Vintage Beach

 

With the school year ending, and summer nearly in full swing, I was in the mood for a little 'beachy chic'...

 

 

Thanks to my good customer and friend 'P' (you know who you are!), I took her up on a suggestion to incorporate sea shells in my jewelry designs and have been collecting them for a few months.  Then, I hopped over to Pinterest for a little nautical inspiration.  How fun are these bathing costumes?

 

 

Here are some pieces from my 't r e n d beach' line...

 

 

Simple, elegant, easy to wear with a sundress or layered for a boho look...

 

 

 

And I've always been a softie for a little sailor boy...

 

 

 

These 'b e a c h c o m b e r' earrings feature ocean shades of aqua and seafoam, and little bronze binocular charms.

 

 

 



 

This fun pair features gilded rainbow shells, articulated silver fish and bronze stars...

 

 

 

More sweet Victorian inspiration...

 

I was lucky to find this crystal bezel chain at the flea market on Sunday!  Its iridescence picks ups the pale blue tones in the lithograph portrait pendant perfectly...

 

 

 

 

I hope this beachy collection has put a smile on your face!  Have a sunny week, mes amis!  :)
