Jewelry is a powerful way to showcase your style, enhance your look and make a personal statement. From understated rings to striking necklaces, men's jewelry has evolved to include many options to express individuality and elevate any outfit.

Where do you start? Whether you’re shopping for yourself or the stylish man in your life, consider these four essential tips for wearing men's jewelry with confidence.

1. Start with one key piece

The golden rule for anyone new to jewelry is to start with a single, quality piece. A single item can have a significant impact without feeling overwhelming. Pieces to try: 

• Lagos Anthem Silver Band Ring: This classic and versatile band is a perfect starting point, featuring a smooth sterling silver center and Caviar beading on the edges for a touch of texture.
• Piranesi Titanium Diamond Braided Bracelet: Combining the everyday durability of braided titanium with the warmth of champagne diamonds, this bracelet is the ideal foundational piece for any growing jewelry collection.
• Lagos Anthem Silver Curb Chain Necklace: This chain is another solid choice. It can be worn over a T-shirt for a casual look or with a button-down for a more subtle flash of metal. 

2. Mix metals 

Blending metals is one of the most relevant trends in jewelry right now. Try it by wearing a piece that incorporates multiple metals or stacking pieces of different materials. Embrace mixed metals in these pieces:

• Bez Ambar Men’s Rose and White Gold Band: This band features 18K rose and white gold along with diamond accents, giving it a distinctive look. 
• Demeglio Black Ceramic and Gold Link Stretch Bracelet: This bracelet features a single rose gold link to bridge the gap between silver and gold tones.
• Demeglio Rose Gold Gio Black Nautical Cord Stretch Bracelet: The rose gold and black nautical cord combination makes this a nice piece to stack with other bracelets and pieces in other metals. 

3. It’s all about balance

Consider balance when selecting jewelry. If you wear a timepiece and a bracelet on your left wrist, try a simple or textured ring on your right hand to create balance and contrast. The key is to ensure the pieces complement each other. Check out these bracelets that can be worn with your favorite watch:

• Lagos Matte Ultramarine Ceramic Link Bracelet: Wear this versatile ceramic and stainless steel Anthem bracelet with casual or formal outfits. The same bracelet is also available in black, green and tan.
• Hulchi Belluni Tresore Black Gold Stretch Bar Bracelet: By pairing the neutrality of black ceramic with 18k gold, this stretch bracelet creates visual complements a timepiece without overpowering it. These bracelets also come in rose gold and yellow gold. 
• Lagos Anthem Golden Obsidian Skull Bracelet: For guys with an edgier aesthetic, this stretch bracelet makes a statement on the wrist. Pair with matching bracelets in lapis, tigereye or malachite. 

4. Tell a story with your pieces

Jewelry is personal and should feel like an extension of your identity. Choose pieces that have meaning and personality, such as:

• Lagos Sterling Silver Ring with Anthem Design and Oval Black Agate Stone: The black agate creates a focal point on this ring, showing off your boldness and sense of style. 
• Lagos Pietersite Tag Amulet: Show your personality with a pendant on your favorite chain. This features the Krunch emblem and combines pietersite with sterling silver Caviar beading for texture and depth.
