Well the men were limited to one ring plus a signet ring and a jeweled cloak pin or broach. It was not considered manly to be "ornate". The women, however, went all out. They had their earrings, necklaces, bracelets, jeweled hairpins, tiaras, finger rings, broaches and they also had jewels sewn on their clothing.
The women went all out as far as jewelry. They wore earrings, necklaces, bracelets or armlets, and finger rings. Many pieces of their clothing had jewels sewn on them. Jeweled hairpins and broaches were also used. The men, though, went easy on the finery. A man wore a signet ring and no more than one other ring. Anything else was considered effeminate. Men were allowed jeweled cloak broaches. The reason for this was (according to the women) that the men showed their status by their clothing such as the stripe on their tunic or toga, while the women could only show their status by their jewels.

Roman men generally wore togas and tunics. Women usually wore stolas.
However the ornamentation such as jewellery was extensive, but only for the women. The women wore earrings, bracelets, necklaces and in addition many had pearls or other precious gems sewn into their clothing. Jewelled hair-combs and golden hairpins were also used.
The men were only allowed one ring in addition to their signet ring or else they were considered effeminate. The reason for this discrepancy in ornamentation was that the men wore stripes on their tunics and togas telling the world of their status, while the women did not have this "signpost" so needed the trappings of luxury to signify who they were.
Free-born children wore amulets called bullas to signify their freedom in society. This was a sign that they couldn't be taken as slaves.
Normally a Roman emperor would only wear his signet ring. Jewelry was not considered manly and Roman men usually only wore one ring, which was their signature ring. An emperor, could also wear a gold laurel crown, if he were awarded one. (and he usually was).
