The history of ankle chains


The truth is, almost all jewelry accessories have a rich and vibrant history, and the anklet is no different. So where does the anklet come from?

In ancient Egypt, for example, women wore anklets to indicate their social status or rank. We could thus distinguish the wives or daughters of the rich who wore gold bracelets adorned with precious stones from lower class women who wore iron or copper bracelets.

In Indian culture, wearing the ankle bracelet also goes back a very long time. Commonly used asjewel wedding, it was also worn by married women. In addition, it should be noted that in some African or Asian cultures, this jewel was a sign of belonging to a tribe or a community.

However, the ankle chain was also associated with the easy girl image in ancient Egypt. On the other hand, it has long been argued that the choice of an ankle for a chain is indicative of the sexuality of the wearer.e.

It's good to know that in the West, today more than ever, anklets are considered just fashion accessories. You can wear it as you want without it hiding any hidden meaning. We adopt it just to look good or to look good and not because it means anything.

How to wear an ankle chain?

The ankle chains can be worn at any time of the year and on any occasion. Whether it's for a night out, a birthday party, an outing or for work, they can follow everywhere. But generally speaking, it is in the summer that most women take their ankle bracelet for the beach and sunbathing. Obviously, this is the time when the legs are out and there is nothing better than these jewels to sublimate them.

The ankle chain is ideal for short outfits like a mini-skirt, a pair of three-quarter jeans, a dress, shorts. But you can also wear it over leggings, a maxi dress and many more. When it comes to shoes, the ideal is to always wear it on bare feet, flip flops, ballet flats, pairs of sneakers or pumps..

The ankle brace can be worn alone, with two or more on the right foot or on the left foot and why not on both at the same time. It all depends on individual tastes and preferences.

Barefoot anklets
