Thanks to the lightning-speed power of the internet, it seems like a new aesthetic floats to the top of everyone's social media feeds every other day. But I've seen one aesthetic stand out for quite some time now. The mermaidcore aesthetic first caught my attention in 2021 when Versace released a runway collection inspired by everything under the sea. I'm still thinking of the starfish dresses, wet-looking hairstyles, and bejeweled heels the brand created. But thanks to the recent release of Disney's The Little MermaidI'm not surprised to see another surge of attention fixated on aquatic-inspired style. 

While I was always mesmerized by the ethereal aesthetic, I didn't think it was particularly wearable for my everyday attire. How could I seamlessly incorporate the aesthetic of a mythological creature into my summer style? Well, J.Crew has quickly changed my mind. The brand recently released an edit of so-called "modern mermaid" pieces, and it's safe to say I would happily click "add to cart" on every single one if I had an endless amount of money. The pieces capture the relaxed and easy look I want for summer while still having fun touches of mermaidcore. Think seashell jewelry, airy skirts, and sequin skirts galore.
