Is it acceptable for men to wear diamonds?

If I don't want to look like a wannabe rap star or a tasteless pretentious guy, is it really possible for me to wear diamond jewelry and have it look decent?

I see some conservative answers written here, as if I fell asleep and woke up a hundred years ago. Some people don't like men wearing anything other than a dark suit, but I personally think men's jewelry is cool. Don't worry about the taste and style too much, wear whatever kind of men's jewelry makes you feel good, even if it won't result in the most stylish appearance, you can still enjoy it. A man who knows what he wants and doesn't care what anyone thinks is very sexy so keep your options open and go with any piece of men's jewelry you like.

Men look awesome in jewelry- all jewelry- diamonds, whatever. I don't know about you, but I love a man who is confident enough to pick out a great piece of diamond jewelry and does it like he knows exactly what he wants. I think a guy can rock anything: diamonds, silver, gold, platinum- what kind of jewelry he picks will always show his character, but that's how it should be with fashion and men's jewelry should be no exception. We live in the 21st century where individuality rules!

The only decent diamond jewelry for a man is a wedding ring. Though even in a diamond wedding ring you should beware of having a diamond that is as impressive as the diamond on your wife's engagement ring or wedding band... In other words, you can try wearing subtle men's jewelry, like a man's bracelet or an earring, but keep away from flashy diamonds, it doesn't suit your gender.

You can wear diamonds without adopting a gangsta look that's for sure, but then you might have to go with a rich, Blake Carrington, style:) There are a lot of risks concerning how wearing diamonds could turn out for a man. I can't give you genuine advice without seeing you in person. Why don't you try on some diamond jewelry, ask your friends, girlfriends or anyone who's taste you trust how it looks. It's better to go for a test drive if you want to make sure you're not viewed as a Snoop Doggy Dog wannabe.

Certainly yes! Though it's true that some men prefer not to wear any jewelry at all, others wear their bling with pride. Men's jewelry doesn't necessarily have to be gaudy, bulky, over the top or feminine. In fact, men's jewelry can be quite tasteful and elegant, it all comes down to jewelry design. For instance, men's jewelry made with platinum, titanium and white gold is understated and quite tasteful, while yellow gold men's jewelry is a bit more flashy and colorful. Plain banded jewelry or men's jewelry set with a small amount of gemstones are considered to be more casual pieces, fit for a low-key, modest man. As for diamond encrusted jewelry, many men enjoy wearing stylish diamond embedded watches, diamond necklaces, diamond rings and diamond bracelets. Men's diamond jewelry can be a stunning accessory for any man.
