Monday Morning Mirth
Although some celebrities are sporting something more electronic
around the house, The Row ladies are resurrecting something more traditional, at large: the Ankle Bracelet.
These have been all over the seasonal runways – and we must admit – although we know we’d lose it in a microsecond – that there is something intriguing here…
Last year when my husband was rushed to the hospital (turned out to be no-biggie) I was wearing a 16″ size 4 Addi circular around my neck like a necklace with the tips crossed in front. Tres chic, no?
I can picture this so clearly, Maureen! Done this a few times myself – even “lost” a needle for awhile because it was perched there and I was clueless!
Sort of the “lost-sunglasses-on-top-of-the-head” knitting moment!
Mom always quotes John Rbobert Powers — “Girls with small brains wear ankle chains.”
At first I thought you meant the Police issued fashion statement!
My mother always referred to these as “slutty ankle chains.” My sister asked for one for Christmas at the age of 55. I had trouble with the notion of buying it for her. I eventually did, although I bought the least slutty looking one I could find.
My mom felt the same way about high heels with ankle straps.
Maybe if they’re made of leftover sock yarn with pretty beads!
