I agree. I love the conversations we can have on substack (like this!) I hope Substack stays true to this feeling and keeps building around interaction for both writers/creators and the audience.

Between bag charms and now anklets you are convincing me to dip into trends that i never thought I’d give a try! Also the westman x metier is hitting on the bag charm trend too with the custom letter charm to add to your case. So many good things!

Yes! I thought of the bag charm details there too. And I feel like the Away x La Ligne suitcase tags and small goods are bag charms too. Love piling it on. I think the anklet is taking off this summer in a big way because it has hit the trifecta of: boho + sandals that compliment anklets + summer camp feeling.

I'm soooo intrigued by Daydream! Also, the Mejuri Salmon Gold is so cool, I glazed over that when I saw it and thought it was just the name for a new style.

😆 🐟 I also thought “is this a new name for rose gold or coral?” Nope. Can’t wait to see more from Daydream. Julie Bornstein & team knows what they are doing.

You hit so many topics that interested me and I’m not even done reading (just running to the comments);

1. I needed this jewelry education because I suck at jewelry. Still trying to decide if I can do real jewelry on my ankles without completely ruining them

2. Coperni x GAP! I am thrilled by this news but I hope GAP can find a better way than with DÔEN because the rumblings with DÔEN was that fit was terrible

3. Lisa Say Gah x Madewell; once you see a SSBD you can’t unsee it!

4. Be still my heart for Larissa Mills collabs; I adore that woman!

Every one of these - yes yes yes. For the anklet I’d start with the snake chain from Jenny bird (Zenia Anklet) as it sits close to the body and lays flat. It also has an adjustable chain. So easy and can add in from there. Or any other simple/delicate chain. I would love more brands to partner with Larissa Mills too! SSBD so cool for summer. That plus and anklet and you are good to go.

FWIW, I have worn a delicate gold Catbird anklet going on 4 summers now, with no damage to report. I’ve been sort of surprised at times how long it’s lasted, even through getting briefly caught on a tugged-off sock, for example, but proof that the right piece can hold up💫

I’ve always loved anklets so much, they make you feel so delicate and hot at the same time 😂 my mom got me some from India a long time ago with little tiny bells that chime when you walk—very fun but I wish I had more of a chance to wear them!
