While we don’t want to speak too soon, the skies have been a luscious shade of blue lately and more and more of us are feeling drawn to the beach as a result. So, why not take some inspiration from the seaside when it comes to your home and your wardrobe? Shell prints, dresses and jewellery are a lovely way to lean into the laid-back beach aesthetic.
April and The Bear: Shell Pot – €99
This vase pot from April and The Bear is so versatile. They have it styled on their site with flowers as a vase but also with a bottle of vino as a cooler. How chic! The perfect summer tablescape setting.
Dunnes Stores: Shell Cushion – €12
Dunnes Stores homeware is always so reliable and affordable. This coastal cushion looks a lot more than €12! It would look great layered with other earthy tones on a bed for a zen seaside aesthetic.
Farm Rio: Shell Maxi Dress – €280
Farm Rio is a brand that truly excels in the summer time. Originating from Brazil, the makers know how to make colour and prints pop! They are slightly more in the splurge category, but the quality of their garments justifies the price point and they always have such original designs.
Desenio: La Mer Poster – €19.95
Desenio’s range of prints and canvases is brilliant. They have something for all tastes at a really affordable price point. You can also customise some prints by adding names, dates or other details to make them more personal. Great gift ideas!
Elli @ Zalando: Shell Ring – €44.90
Dainty details like this shell ring are sometimes all that you need to complete a summer fit.
Never Fully Dressed: Mini shell skirt – €285
This mini is perfect for a holiday abroad. Styled here with an oversized shirt for an effortlessly cool look, though a plain tank top or t-shirt would look just as good with a sandal or ballet flat. Let the skirt do the talking and maybe even add the matching clutch bag if you’re feeling full seashell!
Knight and Day: Pearl Necklace – €24.94
You can’t go wrong with a pearl look no matter what time of year. Layer with dainty gold necklaces for a more modern take on this classic look.
Marks and Spencer: Linen blend embellished dress – €95
Marks and Spencer do linen so well. This midaxi dress feels so luxe and ticks all the right boxes for summer dressing. Team with flat sandals for a day time look or heels and lots of gold layered jewellery for a more glam take in the evening.
