The hardest thing about summer is being trapped n an air-conditioned office while the dream of lounging on some exotic beach, listening to waves crash on the shore with the sand between your toes and the sun warming your skin is on the top of your mind.
This daydream happens to the best of us. Some satisfy their fancy by Googling exotic beach locations on their lunch break, but the fashionable set know the easiest way to channel the essence of a locale is through stylish clothes and accessories.
Agate stones are oh-so-natural, and the sea-colored Allison Schiller Aegean Sea Slice Necklace ($175) is no different. When you get the hankering for briny ocean water, glance at this necklace to be transported deep under the sea.
Make a splash with these aqua Calico Juno Triple Chalcedony Drop Earrings ($42). You may not be able to hear the sea, but it’s clear blue color can hang in dainty drops on your ears.
For a more literal and slightly bolder translation, go for jewelry inspired by the magical coral reef. Whether wearing the typical coral shape as seen in the Bounkit Coral Branches Cuff ($1,090) or representing the reef by sporting its various inhabitants, like the sea urchin in Catherine Weitzman’s Urchin Cocktail Ring ($195), a cool ocean breeze will be closer than you think.
Most people would love to call in sick and hop on a plane to Bora Bora, but let’s face it, rarely do we have that luxury. So, do the next best thing. Throw on your swingiest sundress, a pair of sandals and one or more of these treasures, and head to work while humming Rupert Holmes’ “Escape (The Pina Colada Song).”
