The Pocket Square
The pocket square is an accessory, which has risen in popularity over the last season. It’s a simple accessory, which can really add automatic elegance to your style. Whether you’re looking to achieve a smart/casual look, or attending a formal event a simple addition of a pocket square is going to transform your look. You can either use a traditional handkerchief and style it to a square and place it into your blazer jacket, or buy a ready cut pocket square. You should focus on colour or prints, simply because us men really need to start paying attention to details. It’s the fine detailing such as pocket squares, the socks we wear, the fabrics and cuts that separate us from every other guy walking past you. So focus on adding a dash of colour or a print to your look, simply by adding a colourful or print pocket square.
The most popular folds of pocket square are the flat pocket square fold and the one point pocket square fold. Both are really easy to achieve, with the flat pocket square fold being made into a rectangle shape to fit into your pocket and the one point pocket square fold being made into a triangular shape.
