Let’s be honest – we all remember how we felt when we first watched The Little Mermaid. Ariel immediately captured our hearts and imaginations, welcoming us into her whimsical world. Her six sisters, father, and the other merfolk made us yearn for our own set of fins, cascading hair, and the ability to sing perfectly underwater!

Fast forward to present day and we’re still longing to be part of her world. There’s something mysterious about mermaids and their lives under the sea. From exploring the depths of the ocean to stumbling upon hidden treasures, we’re all about the timeless allure of these seaside sirens. Check out our top three tips for channeling your inner mermaid for year round beach vibes.

Decor to Dive for
The options are endless when it comes to evoking the ocean at home. Fill a glass hurricane with sand and seashells and display it as a centerpiece. Craft a wreath using sea grass, pebbles, and other aquatic trinkets and hang it on a door. Drape fishing net across a window and place faux starfish among it. Prefer something understated? Place a vintage anchor or buoy under a glass top coffee table. Talk about beachy keen!
Fin-tastic Fashion
Sport a flowing maxi dress in an ocean-inspired hue to channel mermaid tails and rolling waves. If long dresses aren’t your thing, try a sequin tee paired with shorts or a skirt for a sparkling seaside statement. Finish the look with an array of accessories like our new nautical Ring Wraps and pieces from our brightly colored summer collection. Are you more minimalistic? You can’t go wrong with our classic Mermaid Charm Bangle or Expandable Necklace.
Wave-worthy Office Style
Now that your home and outfit are decked out, what about your workspace? Adding a touch of beachy style is easier than you think! Check your local craft store for faux grasses that look like seaweed. Arrange them in a vase so that they cascade down, creating the ebb and flow effect of the current. Accent the vase with a seashell or two and you’ve got a seaside look that’s sure to make waves.
