Many gentlemen have shared how they stick to the 2-1-1 rule when it comes to adorning their fingers with rings and other accessories. It’s not hard at all. Basically, you should wear two rings on your other hand, but do not wear them next to each other. Then, put on one ring on your other hand. Finally, wrap up your look with a bold accessory, such as a slim bracelet or a striking wristwatch.

Balanced elegance

Most men are under the impression that you should stick to wearing accessories from the same category. However, this is not the case. You can wear and pair rings even if they’re made of different metals, like gold and silver, or even if one is really bold and the other is more understated. Remember, it’s all about finding that perfect balance that boosts your overall aesthetic, so don’t hesitate to push past the limits and discover your distinct style along the way.

One rule, many looks
