Wearing your watch on your ankle...

Wearing a watch used to be somewhat of a practical accessory for simply telling the time or monitoring the time it took you to go for a run. Through the process of evolution watches have progressed from something practical to a fashion accesory.  Being a 90s kid owning a 'Baby G' watch was seen as cool. It told the time, it had an alarm, a stopwatch and the best bit, it had a button that when pushed was a backlight. But now a watch is simply an accessory which half the time sports a face which dominates your arm yet the roman numerals are so small and basic that your actually guessing the time. 

Then there were those designers whom decided to take it that step further turning watches into alternate jewellery such as finger rings and neck watches!! Thank god its not went as far as clock earings (or not that I have seen). However just as this process of evolution appeared to have reached its peak as an accessory I came across a trend which initially made me laugh but now am definetly going to sport.

Joey Essex....wearing your watch on your ankle! Like where do you think of such things. Often people wonder what goes on in my head but I defs would love to spend a day in the mind of Joey Essex! 

People who know me know that 80% of the time I'm wearing shorts and that I wear heaps of jewellery therefore I have no room often to wear a watch....but my problem has been solved! I need a new pink Casio so I can wear it round my ankle. Why did I not think of this before?! Genius! Only thing is....do I need to buy a special watch to fit? I do have skinny ankles? hmmmmm...
