Top 5 Best Men's Accessories (and 2 Overrated Picks)

About this video

McGoff presents five types of accessories he wears regularly to add personality to minimal outfits: wristwatches, bracelets, sunglasses, rings, and bags. He explains why he favors these accessories over others like pocket squares and belts, emphasizing that effective accessorizing follows the principle of less is more.

Key takeaways

• McGoff recommends wristwatches as the foundational men’s accessory, noting they can transform an outfit and feel incomplete without one once you’re accustomed to wearing them
• McGoff suggests simple silver cuffs or thin rope/leather bracelets as versatile first bracelet choices, and argues against strict metal-matching rules
• McGoff advises that sunglasses serve both aesthetic and protective purposes, and recommends trying multiple styles through free home try-on services to find what works for your face shape
• McGoff cautions against stacking multiple rings, recommending instead limiting yourself to two rings on two fingers to avoid looking flashy
• McGoff argues that pocket squares and belts are overrated and not always necessary, while functional bags in leather messenger or crossbody styles are timeless investments worth making
