Skull Buckles
Hip hop fashion is all about decadence, opulence and bling – making the skull buckles perfect for the modern gangsta. The standard trademark of this bling is the diamond or diamond likeness. “Iced-out” is a hot urban hip-hop style, featuring diamond studded bling.
Finding new places to adorn yourself with bling is the game of hip hop artists and designers, as well as finding a new symbol to embrace. Popular, long-time stand by symbols of the rap and gangsta culture are the dollar sign, dice, crosses and crowns. A relatively new look on the scene is anything to do with a pirate motif – skull buckles & crossbones that make you look hard and tough.
There is a popular hip-hop variation on the skull theme, making it particular to African-American culture: the afro-endowed skull buckle. This is a twist on the typical skull buckle representations, which are usually bald. Adding an afro to the head of a fierce looking skull buckle motif is a way for the African-American community to claim this longtime symbol of power as their own.
Iced-out bling is making its way to skull buckles as a new place to show some glitz. Jumbo, oversized skull buckles studded with diamonds and other gems help give you the hot playa look you want. A decadent skull, skull and crossbones or afro-iced-out skull buckle put you in the height of hip-hop fashion.
There are several ways to wear these skull buckle pieces: some playas wear multiple pieces at once—chains, rings, earrings, bracelets and cuffs, while some choose a more understated look of just one large piece of bling forming the centerpiece of their style. Iced-out skull belt buckles fit in with either style. You can sport a giant, fierce looking afro-skull buckle to draw attention to you bling in an understated way, or you can get medium-sized skull buckle and crossbones to compliment your other bling.
Hip-hop fashion has always been about glamorous, going against convention. The hip-hop and rap stars were the first to popularize men wearing jewelry, and now it is a cultural convention. You now see all kind of men wearing jewelry – from all races and backgrounds, but it started with the rappers and gangsta style.
If you’re new to wearing jewelry and not sure where to start, try a skull buckle. A belt skull buckle is not pure adornment – it is functional, but wearing a decorative buckle is a way to bring a little fashion and bling to your style, without branching out in a huge way from your typical clothes. A diamond studded skull buckle is a way to show your fierceness and strength to the playas you roll with, and to the other guys around you. And keep in mind, ladies love a man who is fierce and wears bling – one of these hot diamond studded skull buckles is just the ticket to attract the fine young Philly’s you seek.
