Jewelry for a gearhead? Absolutely hot when it is this ring, made to look like a big block Chevy V8 engine.
If m'lady wants similar jewelry, there is the small block V8 version. Rings are sterling sliver with brass details and one size fits all! Measurements of the engines were taken to miniaturize the power plants as closely as possible.
Implications - One of the significant changes in fashion is that men wear jewelry just as much as women do. The glamorization of bling and the production of more masculine designs have changed the idea that accessories are too "womanly." With metrosexual looks becoming popular despite its ridicules, brands will continue to create jewelry for men who aren't afraid to flaunt their styles.
