style is the ability to look good without looking like you are trying too hard.
I believe the subtlety is the essence of style. When it comes to Jewellry, craftsmanship takes precedence over shine. You should give the impression that your clothes are just another layer of skin to you. Your car is just a hunk of metal. Do you feel me? Its amazing how the little things catch the eye. Subtlety also suggests sophistication. An enormous gold chain with a grandfather clock for a pendant will look GHETTO.
Or you could wear a sleek gold watch.
You could wear a purple suit with a tigerstripe shirt underneath,
or you could wear a silk shirt with a few buttons undone, barely showing a chain underneath.
Peacocking to the max is okay for clubs, but for everyday life, subtlety will command greater respect.
