TOP white lace up crop top | SHORTS sea shell swing shorts (similar option under $15 here) | SANDALS lace up sandals (linked similar) | CLUTCH straw clutch | EARRINGS white statement earrings

Sea shell swing shorts. Sea shell swing shorts. Sea shell swing shorts. Try saying that one three times fast. It’s not easy, I’ll tell ya that. I am a sucker for the mermaid trend. When I discovered these shorts a few weeks ago, I knew I had found the most perfect swing shorts for summer! I am obsessed with the gorgeous seashell print. It is beachy-perfection.

To keep the look casual, but still a little put together, I paired these sea shell shorts with a white lace up crop top, nude lace up sandals, a straw clutch, and white statement earrings (that I also wore for graduation). I decided opt for a high pony, which I am almost positive is a first on my blog! I usually keep my hair down and predictable, but I felt like a sassy hair style was needed for this fun look! As for this top, I have been loving it these past few months. I actually purchased it in black last summer, and it has really become a staple in my wardrobe (especially with denim!). When I am stuck on getting ready for a night out, I usually reach for my favorite, little, lace-up crop top. She never fails me. To dress the look down even more for a chilly day in Northern California, I plan on pairing these shorts with my favorite, white FP sweater and some comfy birkenstocks. I also think some hoop earrings would really tie the look together as well!

These shorts actually come with two different matching shirt options, if you love a good set as much as I do. I have linked them below! Additionally, I have linked a few other sea shell pieces below for some more mermaid inspo. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, friends! Cheers!
