The tie clip story
The decorations of the tie give the possibility to show your individuality and that means to create your personal image. Many men think that the tie clip made of the precious metals demonstrated their financial and social status, but the clip made of less expensive material can be not less efficient.
The tie clips hold the boards of the tie in the certain position fixing the tie to the shirt. Sometimes the tie clips turn into the necessity as sometimes the tie can't lie straight because of the big jacket's cut and there is no waistcoat to solve the problem.
The tie clips are also necessary for the light ties that are easily disturbed by the wind. In other case this element of the men's clothes is the decoration as well as the tie itself and the handkerchief in the pocket that allows the owner to add the individuality to his style. But it is necessary to be very careful as the vulgar tie clip won't look nice with the shy tie.
Choosing the tie clip remember that this is not just the decoration but also the necessary and functional detail of your image. It is better to choose the tie clips with the severe outlines without the excessive luxury.
The most spread problem connected with this detail is the place where it should be fixed. It can be fixed just in the middle of the breast so that it couldn't be seen when the jacket is buttoned up.
According to the etiquette the tie clip must correspond to the cuff links.
