So alot of the gents out there sometimes feel that wearing their tie, with tiepin, their pocket square and flower lapel can sometimes be abit too much.
But is it or are you just not confident enough to pull it off?
Alot may say that less is more but standing out in the crowd has never been a crime.
The mistake we sometimes make it to think that the tiepin should be be a stand out piece but the tiepin should have one focus and that is to keep your tie in place, with a small but of flair of cause.
The rule is to have one piece that brings everything together and one piece that stands out.
Most of the time, for me its the flowerlapel that is my stand out piece and my pocket square that just brings everything together.
Always remember that you only have one chance once you step into a room to make your presence known.
There's a saying that says "If you look good, you feel good"
All this speaks about the confidence you project.
Also remember that the occasion or event you are attending should give you some sort of guidance on how to dress and accessorize.
Attending a black tie event for example should look like this, black suit, crisp white shirt, black tie with tiepin, white pocket square and white flowerlapel.
Follow the dresscode of the event but still have your signature pieces that makes you stand out just abit from the crowd.
Then finally just some advise on your pocket square and flower lapel combination, always ensure that there is a hint of colour in your pocket square that matches your flower lapel.
If your pocket square is your standout piece then make sure that your tie and flower lapel matches and your pocket square has a hint of colour of both the flower lapel and your tie bringing the whole ensemble together.
