Mick Jagger’s cuff links – when eccentricity became a must

After the fashionably tasteful moderation of the postwar years, the second half of the 1960s saw inhibitions flying out of the window to open up the horizons of creativity

– including among designers of cuff links. In tune with the swinging London scene, eccentricity became a must. Carnaby Street dandies—with Mick Jagger at the forefront—wore velvet and brocade, and the sassiest of them all used the men’s makeup kit—kohl and lipstick—launched by Mary Quant.

Not since the 18th century had masculinity been more theatrical. Prince Raunitz, who, two hundred years earlier had been celebrated for his wasp-waisted satin corsets and would spend an hour every morning stepping through one salon after another, where footmen would throw clouds of powder of different colors into the air as he passed to create an exact nuance, would have been proud of such heirs. His modern descendants reveled in their outsized synthetic diamond cuff links in electric colors, with chain links extending right around their wrists like bracelets.

5 Reasons Why You Should Buy Cufflinks

Friday, November 13th, 2009

And while everyone is too busy staring at Megan Fox, there you are tied on a chair (We’re trying to be brutal here), being convinced why you should buy cufflinks right now. Yes, we at Cuff Links Man are trying to really scare you. *wink*

  1. Cufflinks are sweet little things that can remind you of your idealism, relationship, and interests. You don’t need to visit Egypt (if you’re from the other side of the

    world) just to put a smile on your face seeing the great pyramids, especially King Tutankhamen’s tomb. You can feel very Egyptian by just wearing the King Tut cufflinks. Now, how’s that to emphasize sweetness?

  2. If you’re an Elvis Presley fan or just another Elvis Presley wannabe, then you will surely enjoy putting on our Elvis Presley Stamp cufflinks.

    Our second conclusion- cufflinks remind you of your younger years when you wanted to look just like Elvis, sound like Elvis and well, be like Elvis.

  3. You need to buy cufflinks because you don’t want to look old school (sorry, what we actually mean here is that the world is over with traditional ribbons and ties). Now, cufflinks are being used to bring out the sophistication and personality in you. Another conclusion- it is not always true that the look is the only thing which defines your character, sometimes, it’s the cufflinks too!
  4. Cufflinks can give your date a hint of what your profession is. If you’re a lawyer, you can wear Legal Gravel cufflinks and right at the moment your date sees the cufflinks, she already got a piece of you.
  5. Cufflinks are cufflinks, they’re decorative, personalized and categorized for different personalities, beliefs and profession. Another convincing reason number 5: you don’t want any more reasons why you shouldn’t buy our cufflinks. Trust us, we know better. *wink*

Cuff Links – Exploding Comeback

Friday, January 25th, 2008

Dating back to the seventeenth century, cuff links were invented when men felt the need to use

an elegant accessory with their shirts instead of the traditional ribbons or ties in order to hold their cuffs together. The first cuff links were chains attached to the end of a gold or silver button, it was then inserted through the holes of the cuff in order to keep the two sides together, that’s how we can summarize the origins and invention of cuff links in a nut shell.

These elegant shirt accessories evolved into items of jewelry with bits added to the chains to enhance its look.

Over time, the cuff link idea was developed and polished, becoming the sophisticated shirt accessory it is today, these are an essential part of a man’s wardrobe, especially for tuxedo usage or any elegant attire. With the varying types of rare stones, valuable metals, fabrics, and trendy designs, the cuff link became the new trademark for success, style and power. Due to the Industrial revolution the materials used to manufacture these elegant accessories became more affordable which made things easier for mass production.

Later on the chains which formed part of the traditional cuff link were replaced with rods and fasteners with easy-to-close clips.

The modifications to the original design became popular among well-dressed individuals, which incentivized shirt manufacturers to sell a larger quantity of high priced which were cuff link-ready, some of them didn’t originally design their shirts to be used with cuff links but because they were an important fashion item, the industry started to adapt to include such accessories. Needless to say, sales boomed and men became total show offs as they sported their new look with cuff links and matching elegant sets.

Today, the cuff link fashion is still going strong because it represents wealth and success in those who use formal attires. Men and women working in highly professional careers and environments should pick their jewelry and fashion accessories with great care. Every piece should add beauty to their business persona and enhance the prestige of their profession, while being particularly careful not to distract or draw too much attention, which would disrupt an attractive image.
