As an Anklet

Okay—how cute are anklets? We can't seem to get enough of these right now, especially when bedazzled with puka shells. Dress them up with heels or mules or down with sandals. In fact, there's no need to take them off all summer long.

As Earrings

If you're not the choker type, a less expected way to rock the trend is with earrings. There are so many gorgeous styles to choose from, including drops, hoops and chandeliers!

Puka shells don't have to limited to cream. We've been seeing so many fun renditions, ranging from gold to black and everything in between.

Dainty and Layered

If chokers aren't really your thing, you can always try a sweet and dainty puka shell pendant instead. This long drop necklace looks gorgeous paired with other dainty necklaces or worn solo.

Worn All Together

Puka shells are a statement piece, but don't let that stop you from piling them on. They can look oh-so-chic when layered on together, like with a choker, earrings and a bracelet all at once.
