Quick Decision: Tie clip or no tie clip

threetwooneZERO · 12-15-2007, 07:10 PM

I'm going to a work Christmas party in 45 minutes and I need to know...do I go with the tie clip or without? I wear skinny ties and the clip is bigger than the tie (not by much)...but I don't think it looks good.

A simple Yes or No would help.

Thanks

No. If it's bigger than the tie, it'll look bad. Wear a tie tack instead (make sure it matches the other metal you're wearing -- belt buckle, watch, etc.).

tuck the skinny part of the tie into the loop on the back of the big part

Okay thanks MF, I kind of like the "skinny" part of the tie showing actually.

Edit: Took out picture because it was not needed.

Tie tack...I totally forgot about those. Thanks for the that.

Done and Done.

Don't go with a tie, especially not with a tie clip.

Our christmas party yesterday was a blast. I'm still hungover.

threetwooneZERO · 12-15-2007, 07:17 PM

I like the tie...plus it is semi-formal attire.
