Oh I do like to be by the seaside!

Blazing sunshine, warm tropical breezes and a national shortage of fruity ciders on the supermarket shelves can only mean one thing...Britain has been hit with a wave of unusual summer weather!

With temperatures rising to record highs, it's not just nature that is throwing it back to fonder days, old school jewellery has also made a welcome comeback for the second summer running.

Last Spring, preteen jewellery of cowrie shells and pukka shell bracelets dominated the must-have list of accessories and this year, it's back - only bigger, better and juicier than ever!

It appears that every designer has jumped onto the throwback trend, playing upon those sentimental memories of colourful friendship threads and mismatched surfer vibes.

2019's most pervasive trend celebrates oceanic bounty by mixing and matching every shade of the rainbow, baroque pearls, faux shells and seasonal fruit; watermelons, lemons and clementines to name a few.

With a slew of styles, tonal shades, designs and sizes, there's a look of 'under the sea' to suit any age, style and look out there from colourful shell-adorned necklaces and drop earrings to playful pearl anklets and gold-sculpted bracelets.

Looking for some inspiration to complete your 2019 summer look? Ride the wave of this fun summer trend and catch them whilst they're still hot!
