Attention To Detail : Bracelets & Rings

Its been awhile since I have met someone who's style really intrigues and inspires me. Until I met a fellow co worker Vanessa. I really had to get a shoot with her for my blog to share with all my readers she's truly a beautiful person. From here on out her face will be a lot more familiar in my blog.

"Accessories are decorative items that supplement and compliment clothes" A lot of men tend to try and stay away from jewelery (accessories) due to the fact that it may seem a tad "suspicious". Unless if it's something like a Rolex, or a ridiculous sized pendents and rings. It really shouldn't be this way, as most of you know I encourage those to wear what ever they feel fits their story/style.

Over time I have collected a wide collection of accessories from hats, rings, necklaces, socks, and ties. When accessories are brought into play, your outfit can be much livelier if done correctly. Keep in mind accessories can also tarnish your look. My accessories have really developed to be more than just some sort of trend. They have just really grown on me, I feel naked without them. Ive been through so many different bracelets due to a few of them snapping here and there but I really don't see myself letting go of them anytime soon.

Using accessories properly can be extremely effective. You can have the same outfit on 3 separate occasions however, if you tinker around with your accessories properly and accordingly. Your look may have 3 different feels to them. Instead of shopping and thinking "I would like to purchase a black pair of sneakers I think it will go best with all of your tops". Think "let me get this top because it will go great with all my accessories".

Accessories can also have a symbolic meaning followed behind it. For example my Ankh ring means a whole lot to my being.   This is an Egyptian symbol, that represents life and immortality. However like many religious or spiritual symbols Ankh does not have a single straight forward meaning.

I did a bit of research on rings and actually came across some interesting information on the significance of wearing rings in the Roman Era.
