The do's and don'ts of wearing sterling silver anklets

Of course, the first rule of fashion is that there are no rules - but there are some guidelines to make sure that you look as good as possible in your sterling silver ankle bracelet.

• Cute silver anklets look great on holiday, worn with a pair of sandals (flats or wedges). This boho vibe will be wonderful on the beach, or for exploring a new city, but it doesn't translate so well at the office. Unless you work in a very casual environment, save your ankle jewelry for the weekend.
• You'll want to show off your silver anklet, so wear it with something that lets you do that. A short skirt or dress is a good choice, or if you're going with jeans, cuff them high to let your ankles shine.
• Only wear one silver ankle bracelet at a time. This is one type of jewelry that doesn't look great stacked.
• Make sure your feet look good. Your anklet will draw attention, so don't ruin the effect with cracked dry skin and dirty toenails. Enjoy the excuse to treat yourself to a pedicure.

Silver charm bracelets for your ankles

Yes, charm bracelets aren't just for the wrist. While a simple silver chain looks subtle, you can go for a bolder effect with a charm anklet. Choose one or two charms, or add as many as you like to your sterling silver anklet. Some charms have a musical effect and will chime lightly as you walk, for added bohemian style.

How do you know you have a real silver anklet?

There are several tests to see if you have found real silver ankle bracelets or not. One of the most effective involves a drop of acid, and many jewellers will gladly help you with it. An easy way to see if you have a solid sterling silver anklet is by searching for a "925" imprint. This is usually hidden in tiny print somewhere on the inside, so may be hard to spot.

Are silver anklets good year-round accessories?

If you like to look quirky and eccentric, you can certainly experiment by layering your silver ankle bracelet over tights for winter. However, most girls prefer to save this type of jewelry for summer. That way, when you take it out of the drawer, you'll be welcoming back all your holiday memories, too.
