Ariel of The Little Mermaid and Daryl Hannah in Splash are two of our ultimate sources of beauty inspiration. Any product with even the slightest sea-siren vibe gets added to our stash. So when we happened upon these shell-encrusted crowns on Instagram, we waggled our flippers did a little happy dance.
Chelsea Shiels of Melbourne, Australia, handcrafts every single one of these majestic toppers herself. In addition to shells, she utilizes crystals, beads, and chains to make one-of-a-kind, showstopping hair accessories. Luckily, you don't have to be Down Under to shop her assortment — she sells nearly all of her magical wares in her Etsy shop.
While these headpieces would make an outstanding style statement at a musical festival, they'd be a dreamy addition to any beach bride's look. Can't you just imagine the crystals on an all-white crown catching the light as the sun sets surfside? Read on to see a selection of some of her most dazzling designs.
