From layered necklaces to statement rings, he uses vintage men’s jewellery to bring a bohemian spirit to classic pieces.

Bonus: John Mayer

Though not as expressive in jewellery we have to give Mayer credit for the love and attention he pours into his vintage watch collection (he even has a blog dedicated to it!). It’s clear that Mayer has an appreciation for both the finer things in life and how they age like fine wine
