For a look inspired by Amphitrite, I chose a navy patterned jumpsuit. And why settle for just a pair of nautical earrings when you can buy a whole set to mix things up? Add sunglasses, a charm bracelet, a pair of comfortable sandals and a bucket bag, and you’re ready for your next summer adventure! For a final boho touch, wear a patterned headwrap- it’s both practical and chic.  

Persephone – Queen of the Underworld

Persephone is the goddess of spring and, as Hades’ wife, the queen of the Underworld. As a goddess of vegetation she was worshipped alongside her mother Demeter, the goddess of harvest.

The abduction of Persephone is a famous Greek myth closely linked to the change of seasons. Hades fell in love with Persephone, but knew that Demeter wouldn’t allow her to move to the Underworld. So Hades abducted Persephone, (yup, not creepy at all, Hades…) and Demeter stopped the earth’s crops from growing until her daughter’s return. 

To solve the conflict, Zeus convinced Hades to return Persephone to her mother. The Underworld ruler accepted, but first he offered his bride a handful of pomegranate seeds to eat. So Persephone was allowed to return to Demeter (in spring), but because she had tasted food in the Underworld she had to forever spend part of the year (the winter months) in the Underworld with her husband. 

Products: Biker Jacket, Dress, Necklace, Ring Set, Lip Balm, Ankle Booties

When picturing Persephone’s style, I think ‘cute as hell, but also the queen of hell’. To represent this duality, combine a feminine floral dress with a black biker jacket and black heeled ankle booties. Accessorize with a choker/statement-necklace hybrid, and a set of leaf rings to reflect how Persephone brings spring every year. Lastly, prevent chapped lips by using pomegranate lip balm, a subtle nod to her well-known myth.
