Other peoples monograms or emblems (today: logos) are only worn by valets.

I don't care for it. The logos are pretty obvious.

It's just a tie. Most people will think it's great because they can identify with the branding. Wear it and enjoy it.

I have a general rule. If you are asking yourself this question than your inclination is probably correct. Best to burn it in a barrel and start over.

Not with a suit or sport coat, probably, but with a sweater, why not?

This general rule should probably be applied to just about everything in one's life.



Well, except for the burn in a barrel part. That might get to be a problem is one applies the rule to girlfriends and such.
