Considering the way many men feel about shopping, let alone
shopping for jewelry for themselves, one can understand why many men choose
simply not to wear jewelry. This is a
sad reality. This article will give men a look at purchasing jewelry for
themselves that will eliminate the mystery involved.
The first things to determine is exactly what type of pieces
are you looking for. When it comes to
making a jewelry purchase are you looking for something that is classic and can
be worn to work all the time or are you looking for some fun, funky styled
jewelry that may be worn when you are going out on the town. Narrowing down the jewelry purpose will also
help you narrow down exactly what you are looking for.
Nice jewelry to be worn for business, church or dinners out
for men can include a simple chain necklace, a classic watch or a
bracelet. Nothing over the top but
something simple and classic in one tone should do the job for these types of
events. However if you are looking to
make a statement with your jewelry and are a man looking for pieces to
accentuate the edge metro sexual style you are trying for try a layered look
with bracelets and necklaces of different materials. Simple metals might not
do. Check into rope, hemp materials and
leather. Consider simple solid metal
rings worn on a thumb. This look creates
funky, fun styles that appeal usually to younger men or men that are a bit
trendier and have an aura of edge.
It can help if you know a bit of information when it comes
to jewelry as well. Color is something
that was mentioned above. Jewelry comes
in a variety of metals and materials.
The silver look can be achieved using a variety of metals that range in
price: titanium, platinum, white gold and sterling silver. When looking into the gold tones you can
choose between gold in a variety of carats, copper and bronze.
It is also important to use terms when it comes to the
jeweler’s size and proportions when it comes to choosing something for
men. Men should say what they want if
the piece is to be bold a slender link is not going to work. Use good
descriptive words to express to the jeweler what you want to achieve. For instance if you are purchasing a set of
cufflinks you can’t expect the jeweler to know what you are looking for if you
go in and say that you are looking for cufflinks that aren’t overly showy. Explain to the jeweler what this means to
you. Showy to one person is drab to
another.
Men’s jewelry comes in a variety of price points just as
ladies jewelry. Be upfront when looking
for a piece. The jeweler might sway you
towards something costly when in actuality you are looking for more of a
costume piece. Being upfront with your budget will help the jeweler stay within
your price point when giving you options to achieve the look you desire with
your men’s jewelry purchase.
