An anklet is also called a profile, and it has a long history. This decoration came from the distant past. Previously, it was worn, adhering to certain rules. It was worn mainly by women of the East; it came to Europe much later.

Today, the profile reminds some of us of the fashion of the 90s of the last century, when everything was possible, always and everywhere. Designers constantly return to certain epochs, borrow existing ideas and products or create new ones on their basis, turning them into a must-have for every girl. And sometimes the women of fashion themselves revive the long-forgotten old, mixing different cultures and trends.



And so, we are again offered bracelets on the leg. A profile is not a simple piece of jewelry, so a real fashionista should know a little more about it than any other girl who wears what is comfortable.

The first questionnaires were discovered during excavations of Sumerian tombs. Ancient Egyptian beauties could also demonstrate them on their legs, while emphasizing nobility and wealth. Decorated with precious stones, made of gold, the questionnaire confirmed how rich and noble the husband of this woman was.

But most of all the questionnaires were popular with Indian women. However, even today the leg of an Indian beauty has such an ornament, and the variety of these products is unusually great. There are bracelets called payals, which are especially common among dancers. These bracelets are usually with bells. When a dancer taps her foot, they emit sonorous iridescent sounds.

Forms are loved not only by dancers, they are the most important attribute of the Indian bride's wedding dress.




For European women, it doesn't matter which leg the bracelet is worn on. However, initially it was not so simple. The profile for oriental women is not a simple decoration, but a gift from the groom to the bride and even a symbol of love. Brides and married women wore a bracelet on their left leg, and girls who prefer an open relationship - on their right. Forms can be worn in several pieces at once. They are usually worn on one leg.

You can buy a profile at any jewelry store. It remains only to create a beautiful image with it. It should be noted in advance that the profile among European women is considered, and looks like, a seductive adornment, so it does not fit into a business image. It can be incorporated into many other styles and looks, but it looks best in boho or ethno style.

There are many types of bracelets. They can be thin, wide, cast and openwork, with pendants, crystals or stones, with beads or shells ... Embossing, enamel, carving, filigree can decorate bracelets. They can be braided from various materials (metal, leather, cord, plastic ...).

Perhaps the profile will be engraved and at the same time symbolize something. Many girls are passionate about tattoos, and some of you have an aclet tattoo, but it is not removed, so it is better to have many different profiles that can be changed every day.

What to wear with these jewelry? What are the best looks? What do stylists advise?

You can wear the questionnaires with those kits that open the ankle, excluding only the office business version. Miniskirts, short dresses and sundresses, shorts, cropped trousers and leggings in casual style. For example, trousers can be tucked into chinos to reveal graceful ankles.

Be sure to try on the bracelet before purchasing. Also, look at your feet before buying. They must be well-groomed, calluses, abrasions, cracked heels are excluded. Get a vibrant, perfect pedicure. It is better to put the questionnaire on bare legs, socks, stockings are not forbidden, but not everyone can present this option as the best.



Another tip - the choice of a bracelet also depends on the thickness of the ankle. If this part of your leg is thin, thin metal and plastic anklets will do. Otherwise, a questionnaire with hanging key chains will help to visually remove the thickness of the ankle.

The bracelet on the leg should fit the ankle loosely, a snug fit does not always give the best solutions, in other words, the profile should be slightly larger than the ankle, but not fall off the leg. Before buying a bracelet, consider whether your look will be in harmony with this product.

Most often, profiles are worn with open shoes: sandals, slates, sandals... The decoration should match your style. When buying a bracelet, pay attention to the convenience and reliability of the clasp. Clasps are different, the choice is yours.
