Necklace thread

Necklaces/neck chains are making a major comeback in men's fashion. Is /fa/ pro-necklace or anti?

[Anonymous No.17422720]

Anyone know where I can get a chain online? Been trying to find something like an 8mm cuban about 20 inches that won't turn my skin green but also I don't care if it's just something plated like vermeil, mainly just not looking to spend thousands on a solid 14k+ chain

[Anonymous No.17422781]

>>17422720
What's the point of a chain if it's just going to be some cheap fake shit? The whole point of a chain is so you're carrying around thousands. It says "I can afford to lose this" or "I'm so strong thieves fear me" or "I have no common sense" depending on the time of day

the fuck are you talking about? where do the jews come into play with anything? i don't invest in precious metals anyway but if i wanted to spend a fuck ton of money on precious metals I'd rather it be a bar than something I'd be wearing on my person on a regular basis, I just want a chain to get something kinda nice for myself and mix my style up a bit but I don't want to drop thousands on the idea hence me wanting something on the cheaper end

For me, chains will always be associated with white wannabees. Whether it's wiggers, mallgoths, or pickup artists. At least in a white context. So I steer clear.

2 situations:

1. wearing an open button-up shirt with a chain with a pendant in middle (picrel)

2. wearing a shorter chain(s) so they lay on top of a crew neck t-shirt (like OP's pic but with a shorter chain)

Harlembling is a good place to buy plated stuff online and afforadle chains. If you want diamonds, look into moissanite. Shines better than most diamonds and even pass testers, if you care about shit like that. Other than that, it's a gamble. If you're cool with something other than gold, sterling silver chains are pretty affordable. I mostly wear stainless steel because that shit shines and is dirt cheap. You can find 14mm Cubans for $12. But from my experience, it's a gamble if you're looking for plated stuff, since some people say their stuff hasn't tarnished and some people have their necks turning green. But hey as long as it looks good and shines the way you want it, it doesn't matter if you didn't pay shit for it. Hope this helps, anon good luck.

yep. seemed the perfect size to me. Big enough to not look dainty, but still small enough to tuck in and not look obnoxious at a job or formal event. Its about as thick as a 2 to 2.5mm rope chain which i also wear sometimes so it seemed like the perfect proportions to me.

[Anonymous No.17424298]

>>17422781
i think completely opposite to this.
the whole point is having things you can use to look good, in a variety of outfits and contexts. only being able to afford a few things that typically look like shit and you can't afford to lose doesn't help much. the aesthetics matter and nothing else does. do you think just spending money is stylish in and of itself? no wonder when you look at the state of fashion and this board.

also 'investing' is jewellery is the most retarded notion. it doesn't work like that.

[Anonymous No.17424304]

>>17424298
actually to amend this: it depends. if you are around people who think like yourself and educated on these things, then it's not so much aesthetics but status that determines your fashionability among other things in their eyes. so it is bad to be rigid about this. considering different people and different purposes.

If it doesn’t matter whether your “gold” chain is gold then just buy something from the carnival vending machine and call it a day. Steel is stronger than gold and less likely to get you robbed, plus you saved yourself about $4000

You're sadly getting left behind a bit. Current trends are showing that a simple necklace plus other simple accessories are rising up.

I do two rings (one per hand, non-married for now [popping the question in a few months, mostly likely]), one with a simple design one with a more complex statement-piece style design. I rotate between ring options from there.

For a bracelet, a simple thin metal cuff works, or beads. But only one beaded bracelet, since more looks a bit tacky and outdated. The goal is to find something that complements your watch on your other wrist: I do the cuff with my metal Orient and a black beaded bracelet for my Invicta Submariner homage. With a NATO strap on the Invicta, it's a solid look that I've gotten complements on.

Don't do the bracelet + watch thing imo, it's not great.

Top all of that off with a simple necklace (sterling silver if pale skin, gold if dark skin) worn under the shirt (so that the metal peeks out every so often rather than all the time), and you're pretty set.

Granted I live in Florida, so accessories have to do a lot of work during hot periods where layering is impossible. Either way, the key is to get simple pieces and not to overdo it. One statement piece is fine, more is pushing it.

[Anonymous No.17426533]

>>17426525
Typo, meant "don't do the bracelet + watch on the same wrist thing". Have a skincare guide I grabbed from another active thread in exchange for the extra post.

It's kinda crazy how much of a difference a simple skincare routine makes. People think the goal is to look younger with it, but it's really more about looking the best possible for your age, long term. You'll still age, but you'll age gracefully.

American negroids literally copied the gold chains thing from wops tho. When niggers were forced to America to be slaves, they were robbed of their names, robbed of their language; they lost their religion, their culture, their God. This resulted in them looking to those around them and mimicking their culture to the nth degree to somehow forge an identity in their new home.When they were in the south they were inspired by the lower class Scots Irish laborers around them to be loud drunk pieces of shit, and then they became drunk pieces of shit too but took it to the most extreme level imaginable in a bid to fit in somewhere within American society. When the southern negros moved northeast they brought their drunken piece of shit/southern-honor based violence culture with them. They looked around and saw that the wops were the most based alpha chads around so they copied their gold chain style and took that to the nth degree.
>nb4 wop
Not wop myself but I like wops a lot and grew up going to catholic school and playing sports with them. They have a better time than no chain virgin upper middle class descended Irish people like myself. My people literally don’t even know how to eat food because eating something that tastes good is “overindulgent” or something. My childhood was literally ‘wypipo food’ meme. My “white” high school friends are living in poverty getting their masters/law degree before they can start their boring lives, but all my Italian friends were living in mansions and driving Porsches by 23 because their dads helped them start construction companies.

Delusional. They never left.

I wear a 3mm silver rope. Its simple and fashionable. I like how ropes wear because they roll around your neck instead of laying flat.

My chain is 24 inches which is the right size to slip over top of my head. But its also does not hang too low. I wear it all the time usually tucked into my shirt.

But during sexy time its easy to slip the chain over my head and use it as a whip on my girls ass.
