You could probably guess that since a strappy tank top is out of my comfort zone, wild and ornate jewelry are not my cup of tea. I used to like statement rings, but I’ve even gravitated away from those. Whenever I shop for jewelry now I always look for something minimal and delicate. Call it age, call it being almost six feet tall and not needing to stand out anymore than I already do. To finish off an outfit now I’ll look for the tiniest bit of embellishment, either a few rings and a necklace, a vintage bracelet, a set of earrings, or you know, a bearded man cuddling a hedgehog:
