Jewelry for men - dos & don'ts

Men's jewelry is nowadays absolute a separate style and fashion world. But in fact, still not every man dare to underline his personal style with some special accessories. So is it ok to wear jewelry or not, if you are a strong and maskuline creature? And which jewelry to choose? Here you will find the most important tips how to choose and wear men's jewelry.

It is not also easy for women when it comes to jewelry - if they want to make the right choice. But women do take time to find their way and the best suiting jewelry, while it's not what men really like to do. Of course, wearing jewelry is a matter of personal taste, style and occasion. A gentleman should always first ask himself: what suits me and what jewelry may represent my style?

Your style and your personal taste already determine the direction of the men's jewelry you go for. Take Karl Lagerfeld as an example: He is one of the greatest fashion designers of all time, is considered to be not just talented but also very well-educated. He acted in a highly style-forming manner and was very stylish in everything. He wore jewelry a lot and liked to present himself, for example, with large rocking silver rings or exquisite, diamond-set Art Deco jewelry. But: His appearance was also that of a self-created, artificial figure in the dazzling dance of the fashion world.

The chosen jewelry arises from a social context

What do we learn from it? Jewelry, like clothing, takes place in the social context of the person who wears it. The motorcyclist who likes to listen to hard rock and feels comfortable with his buddies at appropriate events can wear thick skull rings or pendants in the form of hissing cobras on massive chains. Or even the Italian ice cream seller fulfills the cliché when he shows a thick gold chain with a zodiac pendant in the sufficiently open shirt front on tanned skin.

When it comes to jewelry, you should first ask yourself the question: Which social group do I belong to or do I want to belong to? The answer to that question also decides which jewelry you should wear. Of course, in spite of everything, the eternal question still remains: How does the really "good taste" appear when wearing men's jewelry?

If you are not sure or those questions bring you in confusion, start with classic jewelry in minimalist style.

Tasteful & emphasizing style

In all epochs of cultural history, jewelry was a part of the men's style all around world. In the baroque and rococo periods this even led to such lavish excesses of jewelry that rich men at the end of the epoch really looked ridiculous with all their decorations. As a counter-reaction, the strict, almost ascetic simplicity of the post-Napoleonic era emerged.

Anyone who distinguishes himself as a man with good style today - and this applies to the entire western world - adheres more than ever to classics and the golden motto: less is more! At work, a perfectly fitting suit made of fine cloth is recommended as a basis, and in leisure time a plain shirt from a good manufacturer combined with a jacket or cashmere sweater. To the right and left of this basic style there are still some jewelry options available to the gentlemen, but these are limited.

If you want to express your style and not overdo with the accessories, choose minimalist personalized jewelry. Send your message to the world in such a way and make sure, your style gets an individual note.

Men's jewelry deluxe - less is more

And so when it comes to jewelry, the modern gentleman usually limits himself to the marriage and / or family ring, the noble but simple wristwatch and the pair of exquisite cufflinks made of precious metal.
Add a simple stylish bracelet, stud earrings, a pendant necklace. But be very careful with fancy jewelry: brilliant-studded wristwatches, large signet rings with gems (if that doesn't make a match with your overall style, this may really look ridiculous and not stylish at all)!

Create your style by yourself! First, follow some golden rules, and then add a piece of individuality to your image. Remember that jewelry is a spice. Too much spice spoils the dish, but without it the food doesn't taste, so does the style.
