We know fashion trends come and go, but our primary school selves probably never thought the good old shell necklace from our childhood summer vacay would make a return... till now. Thanks to every 'gram goddess, 90's/100's fashion trends including the bum bag, hoops and biker shorts, keep making a swift comeback into our lives (and we're not even mad about it).

Whether you're channeling your inner Brooke Shields from Blue Lagoon or the O.C's Marissa Cooper, today's updated look is a little more grown-up. With gold accents and touches of fresh-water pearls - the shell look has far moved on from the south-coast gift shop to gracing every current salty sweetheart on the 'gram.

So here at Fortunate One HQ, we thought we'd take a look at our fave shell-spo pics straight from the 'gram.
