I Want to Wear the Ocean…Ironically

Are you tired of biology fashion posts yet? I know, I know, I’ve already gone on about lobster dresses and Charley Harper and dressed like a shark (three times) and styled myself as a bird documentary and found inspiration in slime mold and professed my love for scarves that look like marine tube worms

But I only have four words for you: Giant Horseshoe Crab Pin!

Ahhhhhh!

This amazing piece of jewelry is the work of Hanna Bernhard, a husband and wife jewelry team based in France. I can’t afford any of their pieces, and I will probably have to settle for bedazzling an actual horseshoe crab and training it to sit on my shoulder*, but a girl can dream, right?

Or, I could go with the Blue Lobster Pin/Necklace

*And I will name him Skippy, since that seems ironic** for a horseshoe crab.

**That’s totally not the right use of “ironic.”*** I blame Alanis.

***Let’s just pretend I’m using it the way hipsters do.
