Quite a few people say cuff links are in the past, but from my viewpoint, they are totally incorrect. Cuff links will not go anywhere, whether they are worn at weddings, special events or for a simple good time. Cufflinks really do add some personality and whenever I give a pair to a friend, they think it's the most awesome thing to happen to them since sliced bread.
