If you haven't already noticed, it's officially a sardine girl summer. The fashion set can't get enough of the whimsical fisherman aesthetic—from fun graphic tees to seashell bags, and my personal favorite—ocean-inspired jewelry, in particular, fish necklaces. From Portugal to Paris, my feed is swimming with fish charm necklaces styled beautifully over basic tank tops, tees, and bikinis—a trend backed by Chloé on the runway, and now at practically all of our favorite retailers and brands.
I'm completely enamored—if anything, it brings the joys of the beach with me wherever I go—and livens up my summer looks in an instant. Below, I'm highlighting some of my favorite fish necklaces from summer, ranging from designer to budget-friendly, Etsy finds, and smaller, lesser-known brands. Keep scrolling to embrace the sardine summer vibe.
