Necklace as... neck tie?
Re: Necklace as... neck tie?
Many moons ago, when I was growing up, men definitely did not wear ear rings, and certainly not purple ones. (At this point I would refer you to the purple thread). There seems to be several different ways for a maverick to indulge in self expression outside the cramped little box of traditional masculinity.

I may have spotted a trend-a tieless look, but with lapel pins. I got a hint recently while watching a documentary about the Lockheed skunkworks. I noticed the same thing while watching a YouTube video (will the Avro Arrow fly again?).
The future of mens jewelry may lie in providing an alternative to ties.

I like that skirt. Where did you find it?

I would say that necklace on bare skin can look splendid, if there is a lack of prominent chest hair. (My own chest is much too hairy). Other wise, wear a necklace over a shirt?
BTW, notice that some of the men have loosened their ties. Must have been a bit warm for the men, not so much for the ladies.

Sorry, the link didn't work. They were playing Jurassic Park theme.

The other day...an aging man a few years older than me...dressed in the shabbier end of drabness.
Noticed that he was wear 5 metallic bracelets on one arm. He also seemed to be wearing a necklace of metallic links under his shirt. This jewelry wasn't very shiny, but it did seem to point towards individual expression.

Neck Chains for men were quite popular back when I was in college ( "70's" ) ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
I had a few of them, myself
Alas, they've been lost in a couple of moves we've been through![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)

Re: Necklace as... neck tie?
I wear a necklace in one form or another most days now.
More occasionally that will be on top of an actual tie or a silk scarf and hey, why not?
"Rules" are made to be bent, broken or ignored, my choice.

Re: Necklace as... neck tie?
During the days of the Jesus People movement, I wore a homemade wooden cross on a leather shoestring as a necklace. Not lately.
Re: Necklace as... neck tie?
So, you are combining neck wear from both sides of the aisle? Interesting, the experiments that members come up with.
