HOW TO 1
How to choose men's accessories
Men's accessories encompass a wide range of items, including rings, bracelets, bangles, and necklaces. It's especially important to be able to distinguish between bracelets and bangles.■ Types of Men's Accessories
ring
This refers to rings. For women, there are styles such as the "single-line" ring, which has small gemstones set in a row, and the "solitaire" ring, which has one larger gemstone set in it. For men, the standard styles are the "college ring," which features an emblem, school crest, or gemstone, and the "flat band" ring, which has a flat band.
necklace
This refers to a chain worn around the neck, specifically one without a pendant (or ornament).
pendant
A necklace with a pendant attached is called a pendant. The pendant head alone is called a pendant top.
bracelet
A general term for accessories that wrap around the wrist. These are the type that are worn by connecting both ends with a clasp to form a loop.
Bangle
This refers to an accessory made of precious metal shaped like a "C" that is worn on the wrist. Since both ends are open and it's worn with a small gap in between, choosing the right size is crucial.
earrings
Earrings that fasten to the earlobe with a clasp are mainly worn by women, while men typically wear earrings that involve piercing the earlobe.
Ear cuff
These "C"-shaped accessories clip onto the cartilage of the ear. They've recently become incredibly popular because they're easy to wear without needing pierced ears.
anklet
These ankle-worn accessories are gaining renewed attention, evoking images of tropical resorts.
■Material (color)
SilverSilver products, exemplified by Native American jewelry, are made from sterling silver. Because pure silver is soft and easily deformed, "silver 925," which is hardened by mixing it with other metals, is more common. As you use them, the color changes, so you can enjoy the natural patina or polish them regularly to maintain their whiteness—it's up to your preference.
gold
Gold comes in various forms, including yellow gold (with a yellowish tint), pink gold (with a reddish tint), and white gold (with a color similar to silver). Like silver, pure gold (K24) is soft, so it is mixed with other metals to create grades such as K22 and K14, with K18 being the most common.
platinum
It is a rare and highly valuable metal, with a mining volume said to be one-twentieth that of gold. Because it is difficult to process, it is hard to create complex shapes, and is characterized by its often simple designs.
For those new to accessories, silver jewelry is a great choice. It can be worn for a wide range of occasions, from business to casual outings. Yellow gold and rose gold are recommended for adults. White gold and platinum are materials for advanced users who want to subtly exude luxury.
HOW TO 2
How to wear men's accessories
Generally, a ring on the left ring finger is seen as a wedding ring, while a ring on the right ring finger is interpreted as a sign of having a partner. Therefore, it's recommended to wear a ring on your index, middle, or little finger. Since the index and middle fingers are often the same size, you can enjoy switching the ring on each finger depending on the occasion.When wearing bracelets or bangles simply on their own, the basic rule is to match their style with your rings. If they are similar in style, you can also layer them.
Layering jewelry with a watch is an easier way to change the look of your wrist than switching watches. The appeal lies in the fact that, depending on the item, it can create a masculine or elegant impression.
Furthermore, each item has a different style depending on the material and design; some are suited to casual styles, others to dressy styles, and so on. It's also important to know that some men's accessories look great with denim but are a mismatch with a jacket, and vice versa. For advanced fashionistas, it's stylish to change the accessories you wear depending on the occasion, such as where you're going or who you're with. If you're going out with male friends, you might want something a bit edgy and biker-style, while if you want to impress women, you might want something understated yet tasteful and elegant. And of course, don't forget to take care of your nails and body hair.
HOW TO COORDINATE
Summer is the perfect time to elevate your look with accessories when you're wearing lighter clothing.
As summer approaches, we'll be wearing short-sleeved shirts and open-collar shirts, exposing our hands and necks, as well as shorts that expose our ankles. Clever use of accessories can elevate your summer style with a touch of sophistication. Here, we'll introduce accessory choices and recommended brands and items for three summery styles: a clean, sophisticated look, a T-shirt and shorts style, and an American casual style.
STYLE 1: A neat and stylish summer look
[POINT] Subtly incorporate simple and modern accessories.
For a sophisticated adult style, choose minimalist, high-quality, and modern accessories that make the most of negative space. For a chic, monochrome or single-tone look, understated silver is a perfect match.
accents around the face
Keep your face looking sharp. Adding a small, uniquely shaped ear cuff to one ear will give your elegant style just the right amount of individuality.
For example, the triangular ear cuff from EINS by Grosse has the perfect size to add an edge to a monochrome outfit.
A necklace combining chains of different textures hangs around the neck. TOMWOOD 's "Rue Chain" elegantly fills the empty space in open-collar shirts and crew necks, tightening the overall look while maintaining a light, summery feel.

TOMWOOD ring (right) "Mario Ring Onyx" ¥67,100
A relaxed yet refined look for your hands.
The key to your hands is achieving a balance between a relaxed feel and a polished look. Draw attention with a sparkling bracelet on your cuff, and add an accent with a slender ring adorned with a black stone.
The simple chain bracelet from EINS by Grossé emits a delicate sparkle with every movement. Pairing it with a slender onyx ring from TOMWOOD creates a strikingly clean look.
For days when you want to add a little variety, try incorporating Spinelli Kilcollin 's linked rings. You can freely adjust the fashionable feel by changing how you wear them, and unifying them in silver will further enhance the sophistication.
Recommended accessories to complement a sophisticated style
For a sophisticated style of accessories, consistency in color and texture is key. Focusing on silver or monochrome tones and adding a touch of individuality through shape and detail will elevate your look. For a brand mix, coordinate materials and colors, and create a sense of depth with different items such as chains, rings, and ear cuffs. For light summer outfits, aim for accessories that are understated yet leave a lasting impression.

STYLE2 Summer Shorts Style
[POINT] Add a touch of lightness with swaying accessories.
For a T-shirt and shorts outfit that looks great in the city, choose modern and casual accessories. When you want to show off some bare skin, dangling chain accessories are recommended. The way they change the angle of the light as they move makes them sparkle, which looks stylish, and they're comfortable because they don't stick to sweaty skin.

TIKASHI ring (left) "SV K10 combination ring" 57,200 yen
The neckline is kept "light and airy," while the wrist accents are "tightened up with textured materials."
Layering a gold chain over a silver necklace enhances the casual feel with its color contrast. The combination of SYMPATHY OF SOUL 's large horseshoe pendant and GARDEL "LIEN CHAIN" creates a summery, carefree feel as light sways with every movement.
The look is enhanced with a hammered finish bracelet from TIKASHI and a matte-textured ring, adding a touch of calm and brightness to the hands. Adding a horseshoe design ring from Sympathy of Soul and coordinating the metal colors creates a clean and cohesive look even when wearing multiple pieces.
If you're wearing shorts, an anklet would look great with sneakers. It's also a great everyday accessory when you're wearing leather shoes or sneakers that expose your ankles and are worn barefoot. For a more casual shorts style, try choosing brighter colors like red or green.
Recommended accessories to pair with shorts
Shorts-style accessories are all about lightness and a relaxed feel. Coordinating colors and materials and placing them balanced around the wrists, neck, and ankles creates a sense of unity. Adding a single dangling design or a pop of color enhances the summery, carefree feel and adds just the right amount of individuality.a. Large Horseshoe Pendant + Chain (50cm) ¥44,000

STYLE3 For a casual summer style: [POINT] Add presence with biker and native-style accessories.
Native American and biker-inspired silver jewelry has long been a staple of American casual style. It pairs well with a wide range of casual styles based on vintage and utility elements, such as denim, military jackets, and work pants. Many pieces have motifs imbued with meaning and stories, adding depth to your outfit. In summer, you can create a light and airy impression by focusing on bold designs while choosing slightly more understated sizes and simple shapes.

Make a statement with a bracelet and ring from HOORSENBUHS . The bracelet, with its strong links and diamond-set toggle, exudes luxury and luster. The voluminous silver makes a statement while also looking great with simple outfits.
Recommended accessories to match your American casual style
Statement silver and motif-embellished accessories are effective not only for American casual but also for casual styles such as denim and military. Matching the metallic color and texture of 2-3 pieces around the neck and wrist creates a sense of unity. In summer, you can create a strong look with voluminous designs or a light and airy look with more understated sizes. Knowing the meaning of the motifs adds depth and a story to the ruggedness of American casual style.
