Have you ever heard people saying that real men don’t wear jewelry? Well, even if you haven’t we must say that we have. Most men complain about how they cannot pull off jewelry or how they are not comfortable wearing silver bracelets for men, necklaces, or other jewelry. For them, we have just one statement: “gentlemen, there is a right and wrong way to wear jewelry.”
Men often use several reasons as cop-outs from
wearing jewelry. We understand that sometimes it can be overwhelming to balance
subtle outfits and dramatic jewelry but believe us you can pull any jewelry
piece that you want, and that too iconically. But before you do that let’s
discuss some mistakes that men often make when wearing jewelry, and ways to fix
them.
Not having enough confidence while wearing jewelry
If you are wearing skull rings, statement pendants, skull necklaces, or
any other dapper jewelry then you must be a man of style. Understand that
sometimes it is okay to push your style boundaries a bit. Most guys look utterly
unconfident or uncomfortable while wearing their jewelry and initially it’s
okay as well. But trust us you are looking phenomenal. All it takes is a bit of
practice and you will be on fire with your jewelry on.
Not paying attention to the occasion
If you are a guy who doesn’t mind sporting
accessories, then you need to ensure that they are situationally appropriate.
While wearing jewelry, the occasion is everything and so you need to pay
attention to the rules or the general convention. For example, if you are at
work or any other professional setting then keep your jewelry modest and safe.
For those places, you can wear silver rings for men or an elegant sterling
silver men’s bracelet. But if you are going biking or to any
other elaborate occasion, then you can always carry a raven
skull ring effortlessly.
Over accessorizing like anything
Before you jump into the jewelry guide always
know how much jewelry is too much. There’s an old fashion saying that “jewelry
is the last item that you put on, but the first thing that people see.”. So,
when you decide to dress ensure that you tastefully accessorize the jewelry
with your outfits. Better stick to one tone of metal. For example, if you have
a men's silver cross necklace on
then wear other jewelry in silver metal. Don’t make your accessory overpower
your clothes.
Wearing unbalanced jewelry pieces
Unbalanced isn’t similar to
over-accessorizing. Let’s take an example to understand. For example, layering
one or two necklaces can work for most guys. But, what most guys do is stack
two or three necklaces on top of each other. When they stack instead of
layering, this throws off the look as the eye is focused on the accessory
instead of the whole outfit.
In addition, you should also select jewelry
that flawlessly complements your skin tone so that everything looks in harmony.
Enjoy shopping and experimenting!
