Men’s Jewelry is Hot

Nowadays, Jewelry is not women’s patent. Because  men  also  like  beauty  as  women , so  men  in  this  society  also  need  Jewelry , so  about  men  and jewelry ,let  us  discuss  them  and know  it.

When we talk about jewelry, it’s usually in reference to women because they wear more jewelry, they buy more jewelry for themselves and they receive more jewelry as gifts. However, there has been a marked growth in the men’s jewelry market of late. In fact, a 2004 survey by a jewelry industry group found 62 percent of women thought men’s jewelry attractive or sexy; 40 percent said men should wear more jewelry — more than just wedding rings.

Asked why men should wear more jewelry, over half the responding women called it a sign of confidence and success or showed the man cared about his looks. Nearly one-third said jewelry just looks nice against his skin. Clearly, men’s bling-bling is cool, and this men’s jewelry guide includes some basic information on what options are available, so that you can add just the right baling to your fashion wardrobe.

What you need to know

The first rule for a man’s jewelry is “Don’t overdo.” Maybe Mr. T. can wear enough gold chains and earrings to finance a small country, but we all pity the fool who tries to match T’s trademark fashion statement!

Among precious metals, gold and silver jewelry remain the most popular, but platinum is gaining fast and industrial metals — stainless steel, titanium and tungsten — have debuted to rave reviews. When surveyed on what manly jewelry was attractive, watches score top marks. Rings and necklaces tied for second and, in third place, cuff-links and bracelets were almost even. Earrings and body jewelry round out the top vote-getters

Necklaces or Chains

Men’s necklaces (more often called neck chains or just chains) generally run from 18 to 24 inches in length. This is enough to get around husky necks, but not so much that the chain extends below the sternum, where many women’s necklaces drop. Correctly, a necklace or chain is the links or woven wires without ornaments attached. The things that hang on the chain are “pendants” or “medallions.” Usually, pendants are sold on chains, but not always. All these terms are used interchangeably, so be sure to read descriptions carefully and know exactly what you’re buying.

Dog tags seem to be the most popular men’s necklaces right now, but religious jewelry, unadorned gold or silver chains are also in fashion, and probably always will be. Most men avoid large pendants, but defining “large” is strictly an individual choice.
