Ready to learn more? Let’s jump in!
What jewellery should a man wear?
The most popular choices for men include cross necklaces, leather bracelets and gold chains. These are classic styles that never go out of fashion, meaning they can be worn for years when you purchase quality pieces.
Though, as men’s jewellery rises in popularity, we’re seeing more interesting pieces pop up that would make the perfect addition to any man’s wardrobe. Ultimately, as a rule, there are no rules as to what jewellery a man should wear!
How much jewellery should a man wear?
The amount of jewellery a man wears may depend on personal style, the trend of the moment and the occasion. For example, you may wear no jewellery on your wedding day, not wanting to distract from your wedding band. Whereas, on an average day, you may choose to wear a gold chain, a signet ring and a leather bracelet.
Maximalism is a trend in men’s jewellery at the moment, in which the more jewellery you wear, the better.

How to wear men’s jewellery
When wearing men’s jewellery, the occasion is the most important thing to consider. Below we’ll explore some different styles and outfits and give you tips on how to wear men’s jewellery with each to make the most of our look!
Everyday Men’s Jewellery Looks
White T-shirt & Jeans.
This is the ultimate casual look and, when styled right, can look absolutely amazing.
Pair your t-shirt and jeans with a classic silver chain, a statement pendant and a silver chainlink bracelet for a classic and stylish look. We’ve pulled out three pieces that will work perfectly, and as wardrobe staples, they can be worn with so many different outfits to create different looks! A simple silver men’s chain can be worn daily, working well with classic cable-knit jumpers and busy graphic tees.
Open Shirt & Tee
For those winter months, add an extra layer to your classic tee and jeans look with an open shirt or shacket. We love this large checked grey shirt, perfect for layering up over any plain t-shirt.
The open shirt & tee will work well with a men’s silver chain and finishes perfectly with a timeless watch and signet ring. This time, we’ve chosen a different silver chain for those wanting a different style, but we have endless choices available in our men’s silver chains collection!
Knit Jumper & Jeans
You can accessorise any jumper or sweatshirt similarly to either of the looks we’ve explored already. We’ve started with the classic men’s cross necklace for this look. Next, we’ve introduced some trending earrings, perfect for those of you with your ears pierced. We’ve also looked at a classic men’s leather bracelet with a layered look for some extra detail for those that prefer to roll up their sleeves.
These pieces are staples that can be worn with pretty much anything and will give you a great basis for starting your men’s jewellery collection. In the next section, we’re going to explore some of the bolder styles you could create with your jewellery collection and move away from more traditional pieces like the classic men’s cross necklace.
Occasion Outfits For Men
Satin Shirt
Satin shirts are a big trend at the moment and, for some, quite a bold look. Satin shirts are ideal for a night out or semi-formal occasions where a suit isn’t necessary. You can pair a satin shirt with trousers, or jeans, depending on how formal you want to look. When it comes to styling the shirt, choosing the right jewellery pieces is a must to ensure you achieve the perfect look. We’re going for gold with this statement shirt, pairing it with some chunky pieces to match the bold design from our favourite men’s jewellery brands; Calvin Klein, Thomas Sabo and BOSS jewellery.
Oxford Shirt & Trousers
For this classic smart-casual look you want to keep things sleek and simple. Avoid overdoing it on the jewellery front, and instead invest in some quality pieces that create a sharp and tailored finish. We’d suggest a good quality watch, and possibly some simple rings to match.
We hope that covers the basics of how to wear men’s jewellery and which men’s jewellery you should be wearing. With jewellery basics for your everyday outfits, and a couple of bolder styles for some different outfits, we think there’s plenty there to get you started wearing men’s jewellery.
