Foot Jewelry
Ankle jewelry isn't a new trend. Ornamental pieces for the ankle have been worn for centuries, particularly in Middle Eastern and Indian nations. While today most people think of anklets as an accessory, for some areas they historically contained deeper meaning. In some areas of Africa, for example, brass anklets were worn by young women to foster marriage, and are worn until the birth of their first child. Anklets are also traditional accessories for Middle Eastern dance. Bell and coin anklets are often used for these types of dance. Most of us wear our rings, earrings, Bangles, necklaces and other accessories all year round, but when warm summer weather arrives, it's an opportunity to dress up something we can't show off all year long: our feet. Ankles and toes give jewelry lovers even more space to accessorize, and what better way is there to do it than by wearing an ankle bracelet with toe ring set? These sets look fabulous whether you wear them with your favorite sandals, or you simply want to go barefoot on the beach. The look is undeniably sexy on any woman, so much so that some men want to get in on the act too. Masculine styles are usually a bit heavier than those typically offered for women, but there are even unisex anklets and toe rings that will please just about anyone.
