Quick OverView
Wearing designer cufflinks gives an ordinary formal shirt a sense of stylish sophistication, and is a great way to ensure that you stand out from the crowd at weddings, awards ceremonies and formal events. Cufflinks offer a great way to jazz up a pair of jeans with a stylish French Cuffs shirt, and can transform a typical shirt into something quite extraordinary. Most people are daunted by these beautiful fashion accessories because they simply don't know how to wear cuff links - but nothing could be easier! Once you have mastered the art of swivel post cufflinks you will never want to use another button up shirt again.
How to wear cufflinks
It's easier than it seems!
Swivel post cufflinks are perhaps the most common cufflinks, and are the best style to start with if you are trying to learn how to wear cufflinks. They are easy to identify because they have something that looks like three small posts attached to the back of each decorative face. The two outer posts of this closure mechanism are fixed, and the middle post rotates between them. When 'open' the three posts form a 'T' shape which holds the cuffs in place between the swivel post and the back of the decorative cufflink face.
To use these cufflinks all you need to do is hold the two sides of your cuffs together. The cuffs must not be overlapping like you would close a button shirt, but rather facing back to back, or inside to inside. Once in place, slide the closed swivel posts through both holes towards you, and swivel the post up on the side closest to your thumb. Your cuffs are now secured together and you have learnt how to wear cufflinks. Wearing the decorative face on the outside of your shirt means that it will get noticed more because few people see the inside of your sleeves.
Now you're ready to go, all you've got to do is pick up some funky wedding cufflinks and you are ready to party!
