What kind of jewelry is appropriate for men?
Written by Jewelry on December 6, 2009I’m wondering what kind of jewelry women find appropriate for men before it’s considered too flashy or metrosexual? Titanium rings and the like?

Wedding ring = Totally Okay
Attractive watch = Totally Okay
Tie Tack = Totally Okay
Class Ring = Okay
Cuff Links = Okay
One Small chain = Maybe Okay
One Small stud or hoop earing = Maybe Okay
Charm bracelet = Never okay
Anklet = Never okay
Toe Ring = Never okay
Dangle Earings = Now your Gay
Belly Chain = Now your Gay

The "manly men" of the Midwest may not even wear a wedding ring. As past generations were busy working with their hands, a ring would get dirty or in the way. Jewelry was to "dainty" for a man. Sometimes for a woman too.
So keep that in mind when you are job hunting that some people are coming from the ULTRA conservative side of things on that issue. If you want a job at a bank, don’t wear anything but a watch and your wedding band.
I think for main stream corporate America Watch, wedding band, a chain and either a class ring or tie tack is as far as I would push it.
Anything else starts to look a little "fancy"

No jewelry is appropriate for anybody!
That’s my opinion. I’m almost half century old. Today is my B-Day!!!
I went through the need for jewelry phase in my late teens- early twenties… I never wore jewelry for me, even though I did like it- wheter it was a watch, ring, neckalce, etc. I found that the jewelry I was wearing was to impress others! I still see ikt happening… People both Male and Female, love to flash thier bling all over the place— If they want to show how rich they are… why not build a few houses for the homeless or donate the money to charity. Now, that sparkles!!!!!

Titanium is perfect. Not too showy, long lasting and show your expensive taste, women like that.

some "men" necklaces and some "men" bracelets are cool and if your ears are pierced wear little silver hoops i see all the guys doing it now and its really cool for guys to get one ear pierced but not the other and if like my advise all i have to say is i know im good

Some necklaces and bracelets look good on guys, specifically titanium with a plain and simple look. Watches also look good on almost every guy, and you can find them in just about any style. *Sometimes* earings look good, but not usually.

Chain necklaces are okay, and men watches, rings are alright, but only like 1, say a wedding band, that’s cool, or a class ring, but to many looks metro, earrings look alright on some guys, but it’s mostly "gangster"….o.0

i think rings are sexy, sometimes necklaces and earrings, but always watches.

i like a few rings, a nice watch, and maybe a necklace but thats just me

I think that puka shells [necklace] are hot on guys-
When guys go wearing rings [besides your wedding ring] I think it is too much-Rings were made for women..Not men-
Some leather bracelets are hot-Like ones from AE or Abercrombie-But it depends on the guy*But besides that dont wear bracelets-Just watches*

Rings are nice. Even a chain can be nice. But not too gody- Dont want the Mr T effect. I do like a men who is confident enough to ware something on his wrist that is flattering and bold. Ive even seen leather wrist bands on men. which are nice.. Burlington Coat factory has some great choices for men.

watches and maybe a necklace, if ur married a ring

It really depends on your style, I think. Personally, I like simple jewelry on guys. Anything too gaudy makes me think they’re compensating for something. A couple simple silver rings, a leather or cloth bracelet, simple earrings (like studs or hoops), and maybe a necklace, but thats it. If you take it to the extreme you risk looking like Mr. T or Flava Flav, unless thats thats what you’re going for, then go for it.

Marriage ring, cufflinks in the shirts and a single chain neckless.
