How to choose the right anklet
Personal Style
Anklets can be a great way to express your personal style and complete your look. Anklets come in various designs with a range of pendants to choose from. You can choose to go simple with a chain anklet, or add a touch of customisation with an initial pendant, a meaningful symbol or a glittering gemstone, the opportunities are limitless. You can choose to adorn one pendant or two. Anklets are subtle too, which means that they are versatile to suit any occasion and can be worn with a variety of different outfits.
Selecting the right material
There are a range of materials to choose from such as silver anklets and gold anklets, depending on which colour you prefer. If you want to wear your anklet a lot throughout the day, and don’t want to worry about tarnishing, then you should try to avoid silver and gold plated jewellery (unless it is silver filled). These pieces will last a lot longer and can be worn each day with peace of mind. If you prefer something lightweight, opt for a thin and dainty chain that can hardly be felt. For something more solid, you can go for a heavier chain with a bolder look.
Fit and Size
The fit and size of an anklet depends on several factors including the wearer's ankle size and the preferred fit (tight, loose or in between). Start by measuring your anklet size and comparing it to the measurements of the jewellery. You can then decide how long you would like the anklet depending on the desired fit. Many anklets are adjustable which means that you can change the size of the anklet to suit your needs.

They were crafted in all sorts of materials from leather and fabric to shells and stones, anklets were made from natural found objects, and many anklets to this day pay homage to their origins.
