Cufflinks... A Polished Addition to Any Gentleman's Wardrobe

The other month I had the chance to sit down with the owners of CufflinkMonthly.com. I am not sure many men give much thought to them, given the casual nature of American business attire, well attire in general. You might ask, why cufflinks? Why bother? In a world of mass produced everything, where if you are not careful, you look just like everyone else, getting lost on the way to your house, or townhouse, all lined up looking just the same, cufflinks are a very easy and unique way to set yourself apart in the crowd. Subtle and sophisticated, they add a flash of individuality on your cuff in a sometimes very drab world.

Depending on the plan you select, Cufflinkmonthly.com will send you, or a man in your life, a pair of unique cufflinks selected each month based on a carefully selected theme. Sometimes, cufflinks from previous months selections are available for purchase at a later date, but their subscription service delivers the selection on a given monthly interval in a hand addressed box.

Inside each shipment is a letter from the company's owners providing background on that month's theme. They are more than just a fun way to set yourself apart in the crowd; each one has a unique story to tell.

The pair I was given was for April celebrating Earth Day. These cufflinks are high quality pieces designed by and for Cufflinkmonthly.com and feature a swivel back. Now those who wear cufflinks on a regular basis might not go to a swivel back design, but the fact remains, they are much easier to put on and take off, especially in the morning when getting ready for work, or in the evening getting ready for a night on the town. And if something is easier to wear, it is quite likely going to be worn more frequently.

So what if you don't have any shirts for cufflinks? No worries there. Cufflinkmonthly.com has a discount code for 20% off French cuff dress shirts from Paul Frederick Shirt Company.

So set yourself, or the special man in your life, apart in the crowd with cufflinks. For more information and pricing visit Cufflinkmonthly.com. For readers of my blog, enter code "AA10" for a 10% discount on any order.
