How To Wear Rings

How To Wear Multiple Men's Rings
So you want more than one ring but aren't sure how to wear them? Typically the perfect balance of rings on men's hands is two or a max of three before it starts looking too busy. You've just got to find the right balance of spacing between your fingers, so try not to wear two really bulky rings right next to each other. You can also split your rings between your hands to pull off a similar style.
If you're married you could try a ring finger on your preferred hand with a ring on the index and a pinky finger on the other hand. Or you could try a thumb ring, index finger ring and pinky finger ring all on one hand. Get creative with it and find the best look for you, there aren't really any wrong answers when it comes to how you want to style your rings.
How To Style Men's Rings
Believe it or not, the most important part of styling your rings is to wear them with confidence. Try wearing them on your dominant hand so they're seen while you're shaking hands, writing, opening doors and so on. Try not to hide your hands in your pockets, wear them proudly!
Match the metals of your rings to your other jewellery if you wear any. Keeping the metals the same gives your jewellery a clean look that was well thought out.
Try matching the colour of the metal to your skin tone. Silver, steel, platinum and titanium work well with cool skin tones. Gold, rose gold, and brass works well with warmer skin tones.
Keep it simple until you've got that newfound confidence to try new styles with your rings. Start with one or two and build up from there. Focus on balancing your jewellery, if you wear a wedding ring on one hand try adding another two rings on your other hand.
We hope our guide to men's rings & how to style them has helped you find the solution to your ring dilemmas. Happy Shopping!
