Did you think cufflinks were just for job interviews and weddings? Most men are under the impression that wearing links makes them look arrogant and pompous. This is a total misconception! Truth is, cuff links can be the most interesting part of your whole ensemble if you wear them correctly. 

Not sure whether you are a cufflinks kind of man? Here are 5 good reasons why every man should wear a pair of cuff links: 

1. Women Cannot Resist a Man in Cufflinks! 

I bet you have never heard a woman actually talk about it but it is true. The Ladies “dig” cufflinks because they know a man who wears them has got class.

You have probably heard rumours that ladies love to see a man in uniform and the cuff links obsession is closely related. Studs are the uniform of a successful business professional. If you want to get some attention from the women in your office, just put on a pair of French cuff links that match your silk tie and you will soon have women all over you in the elevator. (Note: Results may vary)

2. Cufflinks Make People Believe you are Wealthy 

In case you have not noticed, people with money get treated with a lot of respect in this world. If Bill Gates enters a restaurant, you better believe that the hostess is going to seat him immediately. However, if a guy walks through the door in jeans and a ratty t-shirt, he will end up waiting an hour before he even gets a table. 

Cufflinks give you the appearance of wealth. People will assume you are rolling in those green notes and you will get better treatment everywhere you go. Ever noticed salesmen tripping over themselves to help you when you enter a store wearing a pair of cufflinks? They assume you have money to spend and will not waste any time in helping you as you shop around looking for a silk tie to go with your studs. 

3. You’ll Feel Like a Stud

A set of cuff link studs can make you feel like you have transformed into a suave real-life James Bond. All you need are a pair of dark sunglasses and a well-fitting suit to complete the look! Cufflinks give you that extra panache and you will notice it in the subtle glances that the ladies throw your way at the office or at any social function. 

4. Cufflinks will get you Respect 

Cufflinks paired with a nice suit and a silk neck tie ooze sophistication and professionalism. If you arrive at a job interview in an ordinary suit, you will blend in with everyone else who walks through the door. But if you take that extra step and put on some nice cufflinks, you will stand out from the crowd. Your interviewer will notice that you took the extra time to pay attention to detail. 

5. Cufflinks Provide a Fun Distraction 

If you have ever been bored to tears in a business meeting, you probably were not wearing cufflinks. It may sound absurd but they can actually help you pass the time. You can find all kinds of fun, novelty cufflinks that are quite amusing. You can find them in all shapes and sizes and you can get cufflinks that double as tiny clocks, miniature pairs of scissors or even tiny compasses. The options are truly limitless and your novelty cufflinks can provide a fun distraction during mind-numbing meetings or phone calls.
