Here's one for the board...
I regularly wear french cuffs to work - I love them. I have a range of cufflinks, from little silk knots, to novelty (tetris shaped) ones, to shiny golden ones, to formal black/silver bars.
Depending on the occasion, I change the cufflink to suit.
The other day, as I left a clients office, one of my colleagues noted that he found it odd that I always wear cufflinks instead of buttoned-wrist shirts. He went on to suggest that it may be better to "tone down" to buttoned cuffs when at client-site.
Now, this was a bit of banter with friends - but it did hit a point I'm curious about given my lack of fashion sense...
What's the consensus? Are cufflinks for everyday "work" wear OTT? Are they fine?
