JEWELLERY FOR MEN – TREND OR TABOO?
by Zeya By Kundan Writer ZeyaByKundanFrom Forts To Boardrooms – History of Men’s Jewellery
Since time immemorial, men in the form of kings, rulers,
royalty and ancient worthies have been adorning gold jewellery as symbols of wealth,
pride and stature. Over the centuries, men have decked up in all sorts of
ornaments like earrings, necklaces, headgears, rings, medallions and even
amulets. While for the most part, jewellery is synonymous with women and their
wardrobes, in recent civilizations jewellery for men had become a style taboo.
Men wearing and buying jewellery has been a sensitive aspect in the world
of fashion & vogue.
Breaking Fashion Barriers
It is only in recent times, when jewellery has been
accepted as a common form of self-expression, style and individualism and
people have started to understand that the bling and baubles of gold jewellery
cannot be limited to any particular gender.
With trends evolving every single day, men are now more
focused on their appearances, looks and attires and aspire to be at par with
latest trends in men’s fashion. While there are men who still despise and abhor
jewellery of all kinds, the more fashion cautious clan carries fine taste and a
discerning eye for men’s gold jewellery to add personality to their attires.
Picking the right jewellery for men can be a tricky
thing.
Here are some tips and tricks to make the right choice:
·
Go Minimal
Jewellery for men should be
light, minimal and nothing too flashy. Subtle, chic pieces are the right way to
go when it comes to men’s gold jewellery.
·
Add to your personality
Always choose pieces that
suits your personality. Each piece of jewellery you adorn should speak of you,
something you can see yourself wearing daily.
·
Comfort is key
If there is anything that
matters most to men, it is comfort. Whether it is clothes, footwear or a piece
of jewellery, it should be comfortable for you to wear.
·
Balance it out
Always balance the bling!
Don’t wear too many things at once. A single watch, a ring or a pair of
cufflinks as a statement piece would do the trick.
