We’re a fan of fashion power combos: a white t-shirt and jeans, turtlenecks and dangly earrings, dresses and sneakers, the list goes on, so it wouldn’t feel right to let the season carry on without highlighting one of the summer’s of the moment pairings—anklets and sandals. Although the jewelry piece isn’t new by any means, we’ve noticed a fresh way tastemakers have been styling the summer’s coolest anklets, and it got our sartorial juices flowing.
Among the trendiest anklets of choice include colorful versions that embrace the do-it-yourself appeal of summer-camp beaded jewelry. For the minimalists, delicate gold anklets are another It-girl-approved pick, especially when paired with sleek neutral heels or mules. While we admit some fashion-girl trends aren’t as easily adaptable for the every day, this combo truly is an easy style solution for those looking to add some pizazz. Whether your daily uniform consists of jeans, dresses, or even skirts, it’s so simple to try it out. To prove it, I took to the ‘gram to find some of the best interpretations of this tried and true accessory combo. Read ahead to see them all, and to check out a few more anklet and sandal pairing we wouldn’t mind living in all summer.
