Seashell and pearl accessories for cool bohemian vibes
Diamonds, who?

Diamonds may be every girl’s best friend but pearls and seashells are her new go to.

So turn to these statement accessories just like fashion influencers, Andrea Chong and Christabel Chua for a sophisticated and breezy look. 

Conjuring memories of that souvenir jewellery you picked up while on summer vacation, seashell jewellery made a splashing statement when it showed up on the S/S ‘19 runways of brands like Etro, Chloe, Altuzarra and Missoni.

But unlike the tacky, overpriced trinkets you’d pick up at the hotel gift shop, we’re looking at a more polished, upscale take on the beach holiday-inspired jewellery.

Given the designer treatment, we’re looking at Swarovski-studded scallop shells hanging from a pendant of rondelle beads from Brinker and Eliza, earrings dotted with keshi pearls from Chan Luu and clean sculptural gold cuffs with an opalescent pearl from Chloe.

Ahead, we’ve rounded up our top picks of souvenir jewellery. Have fun accessorising.

Your ‘90s-throwback charm necklace – but make it luxe. Hand-crafted with love by mother-daughter duo Brinker and Eliza in their hometown Connecticut studio, this show-stopping necklace featuring vintage one-of-a-kind charms set on a 24k antique gold plated brass chain.

Each individual charm will delight you, from seashells edged in gold plating, a 24k gold plated filigree anchor to a carved bone moon and a vintage abalone fish.

Bondi necklace, US$228 from Brinker & Eliza

We think we’ve found the vacation-time necklace of our dreams.

Reminiscent of the rainbow macaroni necklaces from our childhood, this throwback necklace features a Swarovski gem-punctured drupe shell taking the spotlight.

Also carrying a peach baroque pearl and mini freshwater pearls together with semi-precious rondelle beads, this chunky number will be the perfect complement to low neckline tops and tube tops alike.
