anklet season

It's freakin' finally spring on the East Coast. *Takes moment to pray that we won't be cursed with some late April snow.*

I know I'm probably going to be repeating myself for the next few weeks, babbling on about how excited I am about wearing xyz now that the weather has finally warmed up. Last week it was spring shoes; this week it's anklets. In my defense, this is the first time in four years that I've had to deal with an east coast winter. And I almost forgot why I hated it.

Anyways, enough with the negativity, and three cheers for anklets! As far as jewelry goes, anklets seem to get the shaft. To me it's unjustified because they're an embodiment of summertime.

Part of my anklet love probably stems from my Indian heritage. If you visit any Indian street market, there's no shortage of short chains of silver and gold, ready to be draped around your ankles (could I make anklets sound any more awkward?) I picked up a few the last time I was in Kolkata and Mumbai, but since I haven't been back in two years I'm looking for some new options stateside. Unsurprisingly, Free People aka the unofficial store of boho lovers everywhere has many solid options. I'm personally leaning towards this rose gold one since I don't have any of that color in my small collection.
