This movie shows you how to tie a tie the Neapolitan style. The Neapolitan style is my personal favorite because it is quite sophisticated and looks great, especially with two dimples. You may chose to either create one or two dimples just below the knot in the tie.

On April - 21 - 2010
The reversed-puff style of wearing a pocket square is one of my favorites. It is very simple to do, and you can style it in whichever way you like. Depending on my mood and what I wear, I decide to make the puff come out more or less. Oger models are commonly spotted wearing their pocket squares in this style.

This video explains how to wear suspenders with a suit. As explained here, the pants of the suit need to have buttons fitted on the inside of the waistband to connect the suspenders to.

On April - 21 - 2009
The three-stairs style of wearing a pocket square is my all-time favorite. This style looks sophisticated yet descent and more conservative than the puff or reversed-puff styles.

Another reason why I personally prefer this style is because there are few people out there that wear their pocket square like this.
