Ties
Even though ties have become a prevalent part of modern style, they aren’t necessary to pull off a classy look. However, a well-tied neck tie or bow tie will definitely elevate your outfit. Make sure that you have mastered your favorite knot to ensure your ensemble is clean and sharp.


Pocket Square
Add a splash of color to your ensemble with a silk pocket square. Choose a color and pattern that complements the rest of your ensemble, typically one that best matches your tie. There’s more to a pocket square than simply stuffing it in there. Make sure you know how to properly fold the square for maximum effect.
