My Iridescent Mermaid was featured on Seventeen Magazine!

After the Mermaid Parade at Coney Island this summer, my mermaid costume somehow made it to Seventeen Magazine! I had no idea until a friend randomly scrolled through their website and found 22 DIY Mermaid Halloween Costumes That Will Make You Feel So Magical. To celebrate, I’d like to share some photos of the handmade costume details and how I put it together!

Starting with the tiara, this was made entirely from scratch on a thick-banded headband. I used one large plastic shell in the middle painted with acrylic paint and covered in glitter, real shells collected by my family from various parts of the world (some I painted and some I left natural with a touch of glitter), starfish I bought from Amazon, and some details on iridescent rhinestone and pearl flats.

The top was made from a lace crop top I have had since my high-school years (no joke) and had tried to get rid of so many times but held on to it for reasons unknown to me. Well, it sure came in handy and I’m so glad I never let it leave my wardrobe! All of the natural and colored shells in the image below are real shells from my family’s collection. A coat of acrylic paint along with a coat of glitter really made the shells pop with color. I loved the mix of natural and colored materials and tried to stil in the same color scheme of the pants and rhinestones. The pearl beads are from strands as well as pearl flats that I bought off of Amazon as well.

As for the pants and shoes, I got them from Dolls Kill and honestly, they were what gave me the inspiration to create the iridescent mermaid to begin with. I stumbled upon these pants and fell in LOVE! They ran very long so I also had to pair them with the platform boots. Trust me, I wasn’t complaining. And I’ve gotten a LOT of use out of the boots since.

That sums up my 2018 Coney Island Mermaid Parade Costume! Let me know what you think and if you’d like to see a video lookbook of this look. Here are some fun photos from the day with my friends for your enjoyment. Can’t wait for next year!

Until next time!

I got this cute shell bra quite a while ago now from the lovely @hamptonsmermaid but as I do a lot of tricks, backflips and twists while performing (and have a few extra curves) I didn't wear it too much just in case it slipped a little! This week I finally had some time to secure it to a bra with come foliage and extra invisible straps and I'm so comfortable and secure in it now. I look forward to wearing it at Fringe this weekend as it is a little extra glamorous! P.s. I believe Hamptons Mermaid offers the bra and extra coverage as an additional upgrade on the tops these days! #mermaids #mermaidlife #shellbra #seashells #handmademermaid #professionalmermaid (at Perth, Western Australia)
