How to wear beach jewellery

You may think your packing list is more detailed than the presidential campaign trail, but if there’s one style hack you may have forgotten about, it’s beach jewellery. ‘Why on earth is beach jewellery even a thing?’ we hear you cry. Read on, ladies, read on…

If, like us, your summer personality is somewhat different from your everyday persona, what better excuse than to go all out? For example, if your everyday jewellery is a fine gold necklace paired with a white shirt and jeans, come August, we urge you to embrace a selection of ocean-hued jewels designed to dangle between your, well, you know, ‘girls’. Attention-seeking jewellery that takes the eye to places not usually seen is exactly what summer is about, especially at the beach bar where skin is on display and the dress code is ‘bohemia’. Enter Savage Soul Sisters, a beautiful collection of jewellery that feels like wearing a warm smile. Mismatch your necklace with a bracelet or two (or three). Still in ‘gold mode’ then speaking of smiles, Shelly Zucker’s smiley-face necklaces are both bold and beachy. And finally, the latest collection by Diane Kordas is the very definition of summer hippie. Designed to be worn layered, along with what time shall we meet for lunch, the biggest decision of the month is which colour to choose.
