The verdict

The Brooke set solves the ankle-stack problem most of us quietly struggle with: three beaded anklets that actually look intentional together, built waterproof so you can forget they're on. At $68 for the trio, it's one of the smarter jewelry purchases BaubleBar makes.

What we love

  • Designed as a cohesive trio — no styling guesswork
  • Genuinely waterproof for beach, pool, and shower wear
  • Real semi-precious stones (lapis, jade, aquamarine, pink agate)
  • Muted, earthy palette works across seasons and skin tones
  • Featherlight — essentially unnoticeable once on

Worth knowing

  • Mix of semi-precious and resin beads — not all-natural stone throughout
  • 'Waterproof' still carries a 'avoid prolonged submersion' caveat
  • Sizing and adjustability details aren't specified — confirm before gifting
  • Muted colorway may disappoint shoppers wanting bold or bright anklets

Our review

The appeal of a pre-solved stack

Ankle layering sounds easy until you're standing in front of a drawer of mismatched beads wondering why nothing coheres. BaubleBar did the work here — the Brooke set ships as a designed trio, not three random anklets thrown in a box. The bead sizes, colors, and textures are calibrated to play off each other, which means you put them on and they look like you've been building the stack for years.

The 'muted multi' colorway leans into earthy semi-precious tones: lapis (a dusty navy-blue), jade (soft green), aquamarine (pale blue-grey), and pink agate. None of them fight each other. The palette reads warm-neutral, which is exactly why it works against tanned summer skin and bare feet alike.

What 'waterproof' actually means here

BaubleBar is specific: these can get wet without worry, but avoid prolonged submersion to keep the shine. In practice, that means pool splashing, beach walks, and showers are fine. Don't go deep-sea diving in them. For ankle jewelry specifically — a category that lives through sunscreen, salt water, and shower steam whether you intend it to or not — this is a meaningful upgrade over the costume-jewelry anklets that go green in two weeks.

The care instructions are minimal: rinse with water after use, pat dry, skip the harsh chemicals. That's a realistic bar to clear.

The bead situation

Worth noting: not every bead in this set is semi-precious stone. The description mentions a mix of semi-precious and resin beads alongside the stone ones. The lapis, jade, aquamarine, and pink agate are the real thing — but some beads in the trio are resin. That's not a dealbreaker at this price point, and it's actually why the set holds up to water better than a pure-stone version might, but it's honest context if you're expecting all-natural.

The pearl detail adds a textural contrast that keeps the set from reading too beachy-casual. You can wear this with a sundress or with wide-leg linen trousers and it doesn't look out of place.

Wearing them

All three together is the obvious move and the one the set was designed for. But they're also built to rotate individually — wear one on each ankle plus a chain, or pull a single anklet out when you want something quieter. That flexibility matters because a set that only works as a single configuration has a shorter life in your rotation.

At 0.03 lb total, you'll forget these are on your ankle by noon on day one. That's not a small thing for jewelry you're wearing in summer heat.

The honest tally

For $68, you're getting three designed-to-cohort anklets from a brand that has spent years figuring out accessible-but-not-cheap jewelry. The waterproof construction is legitimate, the semi-precious stones are real (with some resin fill), and the color story is cohesive enough that you don't have to think about it. The cons are real but manageable: the 'avoid prolonged submersion' caveat is a softening of the waterproof promise, and if you want pure-stone construction or significant adjustability, this probably isn't your set.

Common questions

Brooke Semi-Precious Waterproof Anklet Set - Muted Multi, answered

Can I wear the BaubleBar Brooke anklet set in the ocean or pool?

Yes — BaubleBar rates it 100% waterproof for incidental water contact including ocean and pool. They recommend avoiding prolonged submersion to maintain the shine long-term, but casual beach and pool wear is the intended use case.

Are the beads in the Brooke anklet set real semi-precious stones?

Some are — lapis lazuli, jade, aquamarine, and pink agate are all listed as genuine semi-precious stones. The set also includes resin beads, so it's a mix rather than all-natural stone throughout.

How do you clean BaubleBar waterproof anklets?

Rinse gently with fresh water after saltwater or sunscreen exposure, pat dry carefully, and keep away from harsh chemicals and abrasive scrubbing. That's the full care routine.

Can you wear the three anklets separately or only as a set?

Either way. They're designed to stack together, but each anklet is a standalone piece — you can wear them individually or split them across both ankles.

Is $68 good value for the BaubleBar Brooke anklet set?

For three coordinated waterproof anklets with genuine semi-precious stones from BaubleBar, it's reasonable. That's roughly $22 per anklet, which is in line with what individual BaubleBar pieces typically run.

What colors are in the 'Muted Multi' colorway?

The muted multi palette pulls from lapis (dusty blue), jade (soft green), aquamarine (pale blue-grey), and pink agate, plus pearl details — all earthy and low-contrast rather than bold or saturated.
