Day Collar

Our Definition

a piece of jewelry or accessory that is worn regularly as a symbol and reminder, frequently of an important and committed dynamic or of a commitment to self-ownership. Generally it is discreet in appearance, often passing for conventional jewelry.

Real Life Examples

Beula wears a chain bracelet to symbolize her D/s dynamic with her partner while still blending into the dress code at her job as a zoo-keeper.

Francoise wears a delicate chain that fastens with a small lock as a day collar, which serves as a reminder of self-ownership. 

Common Practices

Everyone is different! You'll see this repeated throughout our website and glossary. Common practices involving day collars include, but certainly aren't limited to:

  • Shopping for a piece that will fit in with the wearer’s everyday wardrobe.
  • Deciding on whether this will be for 24/7 wear, or for special occasions, and choosing the materials and durability accordingly.
  • Incorporating locks or screws in place of typical jewelry clasps
