3 ESSENTIAL ACCESSORIES FOR MEN’S FORMAL WEAR

A classy and formal outfit can be pulled off by just about anyone. But to stand out among the crowd in a formal event or gathering, it takes choosing the most essential accessories that will bring out the best out of your ensemble. Whether you are going for an effortlessly cool look, or playing around with bold shades and pieces, pairing your outfit with the right accessories is the way to complete your attire. Accessories such as tie bars, watches, and belts with custom belt buckles not only add up to upgrade your look, but have their own unique functions that make them useful to wear. Here’s why these are must-haves:

TIE BARS

Tie bars are both functional and fashionable. These tiny accessories allow you to use a subtle design that will fit right with whatever tie you wear. You don’t have to stick to the traditional gold or silver designs, however. More designers have added creative and unique twists to produce tie bars that can stand out more in an outfit. The tie bar’s function in keeping your tie wrinkle-free is enough reason for it to be an essential accessory for men.

WATCHES

Watches can be worn by anyone, on any occasion, and with any outfit. But the classy, elegant look that it leaves makes it a staple for formal attires. Just as casual watches are good for everyday use, fancy watches with a sleek, polished design make for a perfect accessory to match with your suit. And of course, the functionality of watches is crystal clear.

BELTS (WITH CUSTOM BELT BUCKLES)

Belts function to secure or hold up clothing, such as your formal pants and dress suits. They have similar functions to suspenders and garters, but the fashion statements they leave are far different, with belts coming with custom belt buckles. Even by just choosing the right belt color can help you appear slimmer and taller, if that’s the look that you’re going for. Simply match your belt and custom belt buckle to the design and color of your shoes, and you’re good to go! Do try to invest in belts with quality accessories especially when wearing them with your corporate belt buckles to work.

CUSTOM TIE BAR 101

The custom tie bar, or tie clasp is one of the most intricate but subtly stylish custom metal accessories. Starting out as a little metal pin during the Victorian Era, they function to prevent ties from flying in the wind or ruining your meals. The tiny pins did not last long as they leave holes on the ties, hence, the creation of the custom tie bar as a simple solution.

TIE CLIPS vs. TIE SLIDES

Soon after the birth of the clip-on tie bar and its rise to popularity, an even simpler design came into existence – the tie slide. Both types of these custom metal accessories look similar when viewed from the front, but the appearance on the back and the way they are worn is where you can see the difference. The traditional custom tie bar uses a sort of hinge and clasps onto your tie to hold it in place. On the other hand, all it takes to wear the tie slide is, as its name implies, to simply push and slide the tie bar in place.

TIE BAR SIZE

Normally, custom made tie bars have a width that ranges from half an inch to three inches. You can easily tell if you are wearing the wrong sized tie bar with your tie – either the tie bar extends further than the tie’s width or the tie clip isn’t wide enough to keep your tie in place. The ideal place for the tie bar to reach is at around ¾ of your neck tie’s width.

TIE BAR PLACEMENT

The tie clip should be placed exactly right over your sternum, which is the long flat bone at the central part of your chest. You can easily locate it by feeling the middle of your chest with one hand. The location of the tie bar is also dubbed as “the sweet spot” – right below the third button of your dress shirt.

TIE BAR MATERIALS

The custom tie bar traditionally came in gold and silver colors, with gold used to make the tie bar stand out while silver is used for easy matching with any kind of tie. Now, these custom metal accessories can come in shades of white gold, rose gold, yellow gold, matte black, and even colorful enamel.

MetalX Custom lets you choose from any of these shades and sizes and allows you to further customize your tie bar with unique logos and engraving. Contact us for high quality custom made tie bars and other custom metal accessories!

TYPES OF TIE BARS

If you’re not familiar with the different tie clips you can choose, then this post will help you.  Learn the different types that fit with your style and look.

Tie Tacks

Tie Tacks are traditional, old fashioned type of tie clips. This type of tie bar uses a pin to pierce the material of the tie, much like a lapel pin. When using this tie bar, coarser fabrics like wool or cashmere should be used to as not to leave holes or marks in the ties. This type is not very common already, as there are other types that have evolved and are easier to use which we will be explained next.

Hinged Tie Clip

This type of tie bar, which has two bars that are attached by a spring mechanism, has become the most common and popular type of tie bar. It is much like a crocodile’s mouth, as you simply pinch one end to open it and slide it onto the shirt and tie to clip. This type is usually more secure as has more pressure thus keeping the ties in place.

Non-Hinged Tie Clip

A non-hinged tie clip is another popular type of tie bar that works like a money clip. You simply slide in the clip that is bent in a U-shape and push the two ends together to clip the tie to the shirt. When using this tie bar, it is best to use thicker fabrics for both your shirt and tie to increase pressure, otherwise the clips won’t be properly secured enough.

Skinny Tie Clip

Skinny tie clips must be paired with skinny ties. It is a basic rule that your tie bar should not exceed the length of your tie. If you use this tie bar with a regular tie, there might not be enough security to keep the tie in place.

Thicker Tie Clip

If you prefer wearing thicker ties, then you would obviously need thicker tie clips as well to match and keep them in place. Since your tie is thicker, not only will you need a thicker tie clip, but you might also have to look for a heavier material for the tie bar to properly hold the tie.

Silver Tie Clip

A silver tie clip will be a classic color that you can wear up with almost anything. It can be matched with vibrant colored ties to tone down the look, or even neutral ties to keep the simplicity if that’s what you’re going for. You will sure to keep a silver tie for years as it will not go out of style.

Gold Tie Clip

Gold tie bars work with warmer tones of your tie such as red and maroon. This is another classic piece that you can match with many ties, either plain or patterned so long as they match together.

Black Tie Clip

If you want to keep it plain and simple, a black tie bar will be your best bet and will not let you down. It all depends on what look you’re after. If you like your tie clip to be obvious, you can pair it with a light colored tie. Some people also like to hide the tie bar by matching it with a dark colored tie.

Whichever tie clip you’re going after, MetalXCustom can create custom tie bars fit for your style and look. Easily customize your tie bar with your preferred design or logo to make it more personal. Hit us up here!

5 TIPS ON WEARING TIE BARS

Tie Bars are small accessories used to clip the tie to the shirt to keep it from detaching or being blown away. They are practical pieces of jewelry but have also become fashionable and stylish. Tie bars or tie clips can now easily make a look for elevated and polished. These days, tie bars are customized to different styles and platings to compliment the colors, metals, and even fabric of the wearer.

However, there are some key rules to wearing these accessories. In this post, we share to you some tips to consider when wearing tie bars:

Aim for a tie clip or tie bar with a length that’s approximately 70-80% of the necktie’s width.

When you decide to wear a tie bar, you need to check the proportion of it to your necktie. The ideal length is 70-80% of your tie only. It can be shorter, but it can never be longer than that. Heck, don’t use a tie bar that is longer than the width of your tie.

Position the tie bar between the 3rd and 4th button in your shirt.

You can’t just place your tie clip anywhere. The best placement is between the 3rd and 4th button of your shirt. It will lose its functionality if you clip it too high and will not neatly keep your tie in place if you clip it too low.

Match your tie clip to the other metals in your outfit.

If you want to look extra stylish, sophisticated, yet still classy and not overly doing too much, then your tie bar should match the metals of your outfit such as belt buckle, watch, and cufflinks. For instance, if you prefer gold, then wearing a gold watch and a gold tie bar will complement each other and will give you a polished look. Some would also have their cufflinks and tie bars customized and match to look more stylish.

Avoid the angled tie clip.

Some purposely clip their tie bar diagonally or in a certain angle, which is improper and just a no-no.

Do not forget to clip the tie bar to the shirt, not just to the tie.

We get that tie bars nowadays are fashionable pieces to look for trendy, but they are still used for a good purpose, and that is to keep the tie in place. Not clipping them to the shirt will only lose their purpose and functionality. Just make sure to keep the practicality in place so no one laughs at you.

These days, tie bars does not only function as mere clips to the ties, but they also serve as accessories to add more sparkle and sophistication to any look.

Tie bars’ popularity started in the 1800s when ties became a staple in the corporate and fashion scene. These tie clips were used to secure the ties during outdoor activities, in a decorative and stylish manner. Until the 1960s where ties unfortunately became less popular, these accessories somehow became outdated as well. During these years men’s fashion style became more hippie that the normal suit and tie look was less trendy.

Different products are being added to corporate uniforms and the tie bar seems to be on the top list of items to invest on. Brands acknowledge the use of tie bars with their brand logo molded or added into them. This is the exact reason why tie bars are commonly customized and personalized, rather than being purchased on their own in malls and department stores. They are usually made to order for a specific company who wants to venture into marketing their brand with promotional items or to add style to their uniforms.

THE PROPER WIDTH AND PLACEMENT OF A TIEBAR

[metalxcustom]

CUSTOM TIE BARS: FUNCTIONAL AND STYLISH ACCESSORIES

You may be used to completing your whole look with a nicely fitted suit and a patterned tie that compliments your shirt. But if you want to elevate your whole look with a classic shiny accent, then you may consider adding a custom tie bar to take your dapper outfit to a whole new level. This piece of metal does not only hold a name of a mere ‘accessory’, but it serves a great purpose as well. Custom Tie bars or tie clips mainly help ties stay in place by clipping them on the shirts in the chest area.

Classic tie bars usually come in plain silver or gold, which look like big versions of paper clips. However, these days, these clips now come with appealing designs or small accents which started the rise of producing custom tie bars to suit all the different styles of fashion enthusiasts out there.

Companies have also started recognizing the benefits of tie bars being added to their company uniforms with their tagline or logos attached. These tie bars do not only contribute style and function, but also project a positive image to clients, improving the overall brand image.

One thing to consider when choosing a tie bar design is the width, which should be a bit shorter than the width of the tie. If too long or too short, the tie bar may not compliment the necktie aesthetically.

Whether for business or personal use, custom tie bars definitely are recommended pieces to add to your overall suit-and-tie look.
