7 Do's and Don'ts for Men's Jewelry
About this video
The Gazette team provides a comprehensive guide to men’s jewelry, covering traditional pieces like cufflinks, rings, watches, tie bars, and collar clips, along with practical do’s and don’ts for wearing jewelry appropriately. The team argues that while men have historically worn jewelry across cultures, modern classic menswear favors subtlety and personal meaning over ostentatious displays, with examples from the speaker’s own styling choices throughout the video.
Key takeaways
- The Gazette team recommends following the principle of ’less is more’ with men’s jewelry, arguing that subtlety is key to true elegance and that oversized or heavily branded pieces often signal insecurity rather than sophistication
- The Gazette team advises matching metals across jewelry pieces and selecting items with personal meaning or history, such as heirloom pieces or watches that commemorate important life events, rather than purchasing solely as status symbols
- The Gazette team emphasizes choosing jewelry appropriate to the occasion and proportional to one’s build, and cautions against wearing too many pieces simultaneously, citing Coco Chanel’s advice to remove one accessory after getting dressed
