Men's jewelry: from minimalism to ethnicity
Often, men's jewelry is a story about belonging to a certain subculture, a demonstration of status and wealth. We can say that jewelry is worn by creative people, if you forget the fact that jewelry includes cufflinks and tie clips.
When creating jewelry for men, designers are inspired by the classics of jewelry houses, ethnicity and symbolism, eclecticism, combining different styles in one piece.
Brooches and badges
One or more brooches on the lapel will make any jacket look smart. Brooches do not have to be worn on jackets, a bomber jacket, a coat with a brooch will look unusual and elegant.
Badges, which include patch buttons, a brooch option for every day.
CufflinksPreviously, a man in society could be judged by his ability to select and wear cufflinks. Today cufflinks are a designer accessory for an amateur.
RingsRingsSignetSignets, signet rings and rings complete the look. A rectangular ring does not look as massive as a square one; it is easier to fit it into classic and casual looks. Rings with stones that are relevant this season are suitable for jeans with a T-shirt. A ring with a colored stone will look good with trendy bright shirts.
EarringsLast season, designers at fashion shows experimented and complemented men's looks with massive earrings. Today, classic miniature hoop earrings and studs with precious stones are relevant.
ChainsChains are a trend, let a thick chain be shorter and a thin one longer. We wear the chains out. You can combine chains with pearl beads or jewelry made from natural stones.
BraceletsChain bracelets silverPlastic chain braceletsMinimalist braceletsBeaded BraceletsMultiple braceletsCord braceletsBead braceletTo make the bracelet comfortable, you need to choose the right size, two fingers should go between the fastened bracelet and the body. If you want to wear several bracelets on your hand at once, then their size should be approximately the same so that more than one does not fall on the wrist. A bracelet that is small is easy to break when you move your hand, and which is large, it is easy to hook and tear on foreign objects. The bracelets can be worn in both classic and sporty styles.
Pendant locketBear claw on a chainRing on chainIf you want to wear a pendant or jewelry on a chain for a long time, then check that the pendant or medallion is not heavier than the chain, if it is much heavier, the chain may break. The military style is relevant, therefore, pendants in the form of a bullet and army tokens are in trend. An interesting original trend of the season can be considered a signet on a chain.
Rosary (rosary)
The rosary is a rosary beads, they are long, they are worn around the neck or on the arm. Rosaries are made of wood, stones, leather, and laces. There may be pendants on the jewelry. It is best not to wear rosaries, especially with crosses, if you do not attach spiritual significance to them.
Tie clipThe clip secures the tie to the shirt, it is not only a sign of style and good taste, but also a functional decoration, thanks to which the tie does not dangle. The length of the clip should be equal to the width of the tie, but there may be exceptions, but only if the clip is shorter, not longer than the width of the tie.
Belt BucklesThe belt buckle can become a feature of the image, for example, as in the character of the TV series "The Big Bang Theory" Howard. Now buckles are not in trend, but their time will come.
Beads Stone jewelryBeads made from natural stones, including pearls, are in trend. Especially popular are ironic jewelry made of bright children's beads. They look clearer in resorts, but with a white T-shirt and a denim jacket or a checked shirt they also look interesting.Beads-chokers and models of medium length are relevant.
How to combine jewelry
When I was preparing this article, I asked my spouse what he would be interested in reading about, I said that I would give as an example how Johnny Depp combines jewelry. To which the husband, who loves jewelry, said that such men cannot be found on the streets of the city, that he is unique and jewelry is his chip. But you can't talk about men's jewelry and not show how Jack Sparrow combines them on himself. I believe that it is important to start with one bracelet, you can combine it with a watch, but you need to collect a collection of jewelry gradually, bracelets and rings should have a story.
Jewelry and hats
There was a designer in our team who decided that a hat should be part of his image and always wore a hat indoors, and he also had a ring in his ear. Jewelry gathers and complements the image in the same way as hats. A man who wears berets, caps and hats knows why he does it, otherwise there will be no harmony. Not necessarily there should be a lot of jewelry in combination with a headdress, it can be a watch, a hat or beret, a tie clip.
Chains on clothes
Chains are relevant, you can hang a chain on your trousers simply because you wanted to and because it is fashionable. Suits with vests are in trend, and many men will want to complement such an image with a pocket watch on a chain, and they will be right.
Jewelry and leather jacket
It is difficult to imagine gold jewelry in combination with a leather jacket, so silver chains, rings, and, in exceptional cases, badges, work perfectly with brutal leather goods.
Neck Jewelry & Bracelets
Neck scarves for men come into fashion, they can be considered an adornment, they will perfectly combine with leather bracelets. You can attach a ring to the knot of the scarf.
Hat decor
Hats are in trend, if you go further, you can decorate the hat ribbon or crown with icons.
Bracelets and seals
Do not think that classic style will not accept anything other than watches and tie clips. A man, if the dress code permits, can wear not only colored socks for a classic suit, but also fennecs paired with an expensive watch.
You do not need to force yourself to wear jewelry if the communication environment, hobbies do not require them to complement the image. Men's jewelry is about a conscious choice, an impulse of the soul, about a long and important time, not about need.
