Wearing a Tie or not?
In my opinion ties are now very old fashion stuff to wear. I have around 30 of them in my closet and I wear a tie only when i am obliged to and feel so uncomfortable because no matter what, the tie will give you the feeling of being strangled thus not working or thinking properly and feeling itchy and scratchy all the time.
And when was the last time i bought a tie? I don’t really remember, but i do remember that i made sure buying them in 1 color and so classical, so i don’t need to worry about fashion trend.
Some people think that wearing a tie will give you extra positive look, which i think is totally wrong. Unfortunately as i said, sometimes i have to wear a tie during exhibition or very sensitive meetings, because i am asked too by my upper management and this dragged many times to long discussions about the issue.
I also don’t understand people wearing ties to a wedding during summer when it is +35° and sweating for 4-5 hours just because it is a wedding and they “should” wear a tie. I searched a lot but could not find a law or savoir-vivre rule saying that you are obliged to wear a tie to a meeting or a wedding ceremony.
Being comfortable in a meeting is a must. I am not saying people should wear bermudas and flipflops to an important meeting, but my point of view says that wearing a decent full suit with a shirt is enough no matter how important this meeting is.
On a more personal level, i prefer wearing the Jeff Bezos style (dark jeans, light blue shirt, dark blue blazer).
