While the jewelry market is primarily targeted towards women, it’s undeniable that classic men’s jewelry is here to stay. Think watches, cufflinks, rings, earrings and more. Not only have certain styles of men’s jewelry become status symbols, carefully selected jewelry pieces can define a man’s personal style. The rise of visual social media platforms, such as Instagram, have only contributed to the rise in popularity of men’s jewelry. As you build your personal collection, these are the pieces that every man should own.

1. Watch

As functional as it is stylish, every man should own a watch. With a variety of styles to choose from, a watch is the perfect opportunity to show personality in your wardrobe. From smartwatches to traditional metal or leather band options, there is much to choose from to start your collection. Most men tend to have at least an everyday watch and a dress watch.

2. Bracelet

Although bracelets are more nontraditional than some other men’s jewelry options, there are many occasions where a carefully selected bracelet can complete a look. Leather bands or single metal bracelets are good options to start with if you’re unsure about adding this jewelry piece to your collection. Leather bracelets in particular can add a certain edginess to your look without being obnoxious.

3. Chain Necklace

There’s a reason they’re a classic. Metal silver or gold chains can add style to otherwise basic outfits, such as jeans and a plain white t-shirt. Chain necklaces can be understated and don’t need to stand out. Even with a simple charm or religious symbol included, they can easily help to complete any effortless look.

4. Ring

Men’s wedding bands or fashion rings have come a long way in recent years. Many men are choosing wedding bands that go beyond a simple band, instead including traditional or manmade diamonds as part of the band, or incorporating simple patterns. If you’re not engaged or married, just avoid wearing the ring on your left ring finger. A good rule of thumb is only one ring on each hand. Stacked ring styles are becoming more popular with men and are worth trying out as well.

5. Cufflinks 

Cufflinks are meant for more formal occasions, but are the perfect opportunity to show your personality with the wide-range of styles that are available. Sophisticated styles all the way down to your college mascot, just be sure that your cufflink of choice matches the tone of the event you’re attending.

6. Tie Clip or Tie Chain

Going beyond the practical functionality of holding your tie in place, tie clips or chains are another opportunity to either show your sophisticated and classy side, or to let your personality shine through with a fun or quirky option. If you’re wearing certain colors, just be sure that the tie clip or chain compliments whatever colors you’re wearing instead of clashing.

There are many options today for men’s jewelry, but starting with these basic pieces are a great way to add simple luxury and personal style to your wardrobe. It’s important to remember some simple rules surrounding jewelry as well, such as not mixing metals, sticking to understated styles that fit the setting you’ll be in, and keeping it simple.
