The Modern Man’s Jewellery Guide: Styling Confidence

There was a time when a man’s adornment was measured in simplicity; a watch, perhaps, or a wedding band. But today, men are no longer confined to muted tones and minimal touches. They gleam in yellow Gold, rose Gold, white Gold, and platinum; they sparkle in diamonds and gemstones, and they embrace enamel and leather as statements of texture and taste. Like verses of confidence woven in metal and stone, men’s jewellery tells stories of heritage, rebellion, and style that dares to shine.

As we celebrate International Men’s Day, let’s explore the art of styling men’s jewellery, from rings and chains to cuff links and brooches.

Chains: Classic and Layered

If you’re new to jewellery, a chain is the perfect starting point. Whether you prefer a simple gold link or a layered statement look, it’s a timeless essential that suits every style.

How to Style It:

Casual Days: Go for a slim chain in yellow gold or white gold, worn close to the collarbone. It pairs effortlessly with a crew-neck tee or open shirt.
Formal Events: Opt for a sleek platinum or white gold chain tucked under a shirt; a hint of metal adds polish to any blazer or suit.
Festive Looks: Layer two or three chains in varying lengths and textures. Think a rose gold rope chain with a diamond or gemstone pendant. It’s the perfect mix of tradition and trend.

Tip: Balance is everything. Keep the rest of your accessories minimal to let the chains do the talking.

Rings

A ring is more than an accessory; it’s a reflection of individuality. From sculpted bands to diamond-encrusted centrepieces, men’s rings command quiet confidence.

How to Style It:

Everyday Wear: Choose a matte gold or platinum band or experiment with enamel accents or leather inlays for a modern twist.
Evening Looks: A diamond or gemstone ring adds a hint of charisma without excess. Wear one on the right hand for a subtle statement.
Cultural Events: Traditional motifs and engraved rings in yellow or rose gold pair beautifully with ethnic wear.

Tip: Limit yourself to one or two rings. Symmetry and space make the style look intentional.

Kada Bracelet

A symbol of strength and protection, the kada has evolved into a modern statement of power and grace.

How to Style It:

Traditional Look: Pair a polished gold kada with festive wear, kurtas or bandhgalas.
Contemporary Edge: Try a brushed white gold or platinum kada with diamond detailing. It blends beautifully with your watch.
Everyday Wear: A leather kada with metallic elements offers rugged charm for casual looks.

Tip: Mix materials. Pair gold with leather, or contrast polished finishes with matte textures for a bold, balanced look.

Diamond Stud Earrings

No longer unconventional, diamond studs have become a hallmark of sophisticated confidence.

How to Style It:

Minimalist Vibe: One sleek stud in white gold or platinum keeps it sharp and timeless.
Festive Flair: Go bolder with a rose gold or gemstone-framed stud for ethnic celebrations.
Everyday Edge: Pair your stud with a subtle chain or kada for a cohesive look.

Tip: Choose smaller, well-cut stones. The key is understated elegance.

Cuff Links

The finishing touch to every well-tailored look, cuff links blend refinement with personality.

How to Style It:

Business Classic: Opt for platinum or white gold cuff links with minimalist enamel detailing.
Evening Affairs: Experiment with gemstone-set or diamond-accented designs to add depth and luxury.
Festive Events: Rose gold cuff links complement richly textured fabrics and embroidered jackets. Alternatively the cufflinks add a touch of elegance as button hole embellishments to your festive kurta.

Tip: Match the metal of your cuff links to your watch or ring for a cohesive, polished ensemble.

Brooches

Once reserved for formal coats and ceremonial wear, the modern brooch is now a statement of creativity and confidence.

How to Style It:

Formal Elegance: Pin a sleek platinum or diamond-studded brooch on your lapel for instant sophistication.
Festive Ensemble: Choose intricate gold or gemstone motifs inspired by heritage design. If adorning the brooch onto your kurta feels ordinary, go for a signature bold piece to deck your turban.
Modern Twist: Go for abstract shapes with enamel accents; perfect for contemporary blazers or bandhgalas.

Tip: One well-chosen brooch is enough; placement and proportion are key to making it stand out.

Ethnic Men’s Jewellery

Festivals and weddings invite expression through regal, culturally inspired pieces.

How to Style It:

Pair a heavier gold or gemstone chain with embroidered kurtas.
Coordinate rings, kadas, and brooches in complementary metals for cohesive elegance.
Choose intricate temple motifs or enamelled finishes that echo heritage artistry.

Tip: Subtle touches of ethnic jewellery can also elevate everyday looks; heritage never goes out of style.

Modern men no longer see jewellery as an afterthought; it’s an expression of identity. Whether it’s a platinum chain that captures refinement, a diamond ring that signals success, or a gold kada that symbolises strength, each piece speaks to the man who wears it.
