It's All About Tropical Shades and Mermaid Braids at Miami Swim Week

This mint-green shadow and super-teased-out tresses have us yearning for a disco comeback.

While we love the dashes of white eyeliner under this model's eyes, we're willing to bet that she has some serious helmet hair under there.

These wrapped braids are inspiring us to order a daiquiri at our next happy hour.

Now this is a poolside look that we can re-create in our sleep: low, sleek center-parted pony with a softly stained lip.

Bedhead hair and flushed cheeks make this surfer chick look chic.

This Pippi Longstocking-inspired look has a lot of height (and we don't mean volume).

You can easily accomplish this glitzy gold and chevron-patterned nail art at home with some carefully placed tape.

If only our artsy eyeliner doodles came out looking this sophisticated.

In case you didn't have enough eye candy during Miami Swim Week, this model wore a snake as a . . . well, boa down the catwalk. Paging Britney circa 2001!

Orange blush and unkempt brows have never looked so appealing.

We can't wait to re-create this Fembot-esque look at home.

We love the hints of lilac (and bold lashes) framing her eyes.

Multiple pompadours, braids, and bouffants — this look is so intricate that we don't know where to look first.

This model was born to wear that radiant orchid lipstick.

Cornrows and teased-out volume make this a bold but DIY-able look.

Sometimes, all a flawless layered blowout needs is a huge palm frond crown.

This liner is reminiscent of the Dior tinsel eyeliner we saw during Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week, but the crystals carefully placed on the tear ducts are all Miami flair.

In case the sea-salt-sprayed hair and pearl accessories didn't clue you in, the metallic fish-scale tattoos will: this model is a mermaid!

Seriously, she looks like she just stepped out of the ocean. We bet her makeup artist used Vaseline as highlighter!

A deep side part makes this fishtail braid perfect for a glam night out.

This model's bold brows and eyeliner let the swimsuit be the star — that is, until you look closely . . .

. . . because each nail at the Mara Hoffman show was stamped with a different design.

Heaps of bronzer and cascading ringlets make this look worth replicating for your next happy hour.

Bold black liquid liner and matte red lips played up the vintage vibe at Gottex.

Belusso made the argument (and won) that orange lipstick works on all skin tones.

But pairing it with a fishtail braid is what makes it muy Miami.

Seriously shimmering skin and juicy pink lips make for a Summer look after our own hearts.

This intense black liner and septum piercing aren't the only bold features of the look at 6 Shore Road by Pooja.

This mohawk-like center plait with its knotted base inspires us to hone our braiding skills.

If you needed high-fashion Halloween inspiration with a hint of SpongeBob SquarePants pizzazz, this is it.
