Cufflinks To Match Your Lifestyle
June 12, 2008
Cufflinks like French cuffs were very much in style till casual wear became the rage sometime in the eighties and the nineties. Falling out of favour, today cufflinks are worn only on the most formal occasions. However, as men no longer shy away from donning jewellery, cufflinks are again de rigueur.
Today, every well-turned out man has several dress shirts with stylish French cuffs hanging in his closet, and several pairs of cufflinks on his dresser. In style and very cool, every cufflink is a miniature work of art. Collectible items, cufflinks have the added benefit of dressing up your person. Available in every conceivable size, style, colour, shape and design, buy cufflinks that appeal to your lifestyle or personal taste. Expensive or cheap, in gold or silver, enamelled or diamond / gemstones / crystal studded, cufflinks should be a perfect match your personality and suited to your profession.
Coming in four recognized styles, there is the simple ‘Post’ style; you must have seen your father or grandfather wearing. With a fob / large ball or disk on one side, and a tilting post on the other, this is a common cufflink style. Then there are the button style cufflinks for a more polished look, followed by silk knot cufflinks connected together by a short ribbon. Elegant and comfortable to wear, several designer stores sell matching silk knots cufflinks and silk ties.
Some important tips to remember about wearing cufflinks is to match them to your watch or other jewellery, such as, ring or chain that you might be wearing. As for colour enamelled or gemstone-studded cufflinks, be sure to match them to your shirt or to your tie. For formal occasions, classic gold or silver cufflinks look best, or you can match them to your dinner jacket. But, where weddings are concerned, your cufflinks should generally match the colours of the wedding.
