A woman’s body is definitely a spectacle of beauty and the feet are actually one of the most beautiful parts. Though today, this fact is overshadowed by modern media, which highlights women’s faces and torsos and very little else. But if you look at history, the delicate shape of women’s feet have been paid great respect and attention, as proven by classical literary works by D.H. Lawrence and Lord Byron, to mention a few.

However, in ancient China, it was such a big deal that women had small, delicate “moon-shaped” feet (that is with deep insteps) that an entire custom dedicated to foot-binding was developed. This was extremely painful for the women who undergo such process but the standards for lovely feet back then helped greatly in setting standards of overall attractiveness; women with small feet were considered noble and aristocratic.

Nowadays we have done away with painful practices, knowing that women’s feet are beautiful naturally. The sensuous instep and curve of the ankles call for accentuating jewelry. This is part of why ankle bracelets are increasingly in demand.

Ankle bracelets – “anklets,” for short – are lightweight and beautiful ornaments for the feet. Many come with tiny charms, which usually variants of a favorite symbol, like cats, hearts, stars and bells the variety is endless. Bracelets worn on the feet are in fact very similar in make to bracelets worn on the wrists, which is why for many, bracelets and anklets are interchangeable.

Ankle bracelets for the most part are casual accessories and are best to be worn on an ordinary day to make a bit extra-ordinary or when you are out to have some day fun. Multicolored anklets woven from fibers or threads look great with casual sandals or flip-flops or even barefoot!
