It's funny to even talk about this, but hey, men want to know if it's okay to wear
more than one piece of Jewelry at a time?
Can they wear both a Bracelet and a Necklace? How about an Earring, Pinky Ring and Chain? Are there guidelines and limits to what a guy can wear that are acceptable and won't look so, well, sparkly?
Nope! No guidelines! No rules! Nothing cast in stone. Every guy is different. Most guys wear 2 pieces of Jewelry all the time as it is: A Wedding Ring and a Watch.
But I see nothing wrong with them also wearing a Necklace and a Bracelet as well. Why not? It's only 4 pieces... No big deal! You're still balanced, an item on each arm, a Chain and a Men's Ring. It's a great combo. Nothing's touching. Nothing's clanking around. It all works fine.
Times are much different nowadays than they used to be. Guys today don't think much about old styles, old generations and what other people think. They wear multiple Necklaces, Earrings in both ears, Bracelets, Silver Rings on each and every finger, Anklets, Pearl Necklaces, Grillz, and who knows how many body parts pierced...
The point is, wear what you like and what you feel comfortable with. No one can make that decision for you. It's an individual preference. A personal statement. (Like getting a tattoo!) If you want to wear a couple of pieces, do so. If you want to be adorned from head to toe in Gold like King Tut, then go for it!
You are the only one that you need to please. Don't worry about what other guys wear or what someone else says is proper. Jewelry is an expression. Only you can decide what's enough for you.
Me, I wear a Diamond Earring, a Link Bracelet, a Watch, and a Ring at all times. And I wear all different types of Metals too: Platinum, White Gold, Yellow Gold, Tungsten, Titanium, Sterling Silver and Stainless Steel. (I've got all the Metals covered!) Plus, sometimes I also wear a Link Chain. It all depends on how I feel and what I'm wearing. (Casual or Dressy). I also have a 14kt Gold Tie Chain that I wear with a suit. Do I care if it's appropriate or fits into someone else's ideal image or standards? Nope! I like it! They can wear what they want to wear and I'll do the same.
I recommend this approach for everyone. Wear what you want! Easy as that.
Now if only I can decide what to get pierced next...
