Wake Forest Cuff links - If you're snazzy like that ...

For those of you who are super important and have a place where you'd like to sport some cuff links, check out this pair from Ugradshop.com. They are sterling silver and etched with the school seal. This is a perfect gift for Dad or someone entering the world of work.

And what better thing to pair it with than these ties from Dapper Duds?



One of these ties could be yours, if you submit a picture of you wearing black and gold to Chic Deac. Send it to chicdeacstyle@gmail.com to be considered!

Item of the Week - This One's for the Boys

In the spirit of men's week here on Chic Deac, our Item of the Week is for them. Dapper Duds is a tie company created by college students.

Looking for jobs in a post-collegiate world made them realize that the stuff that would get them the job (quality suits and ties) were actually very pricey, they were inspired to create quality, low-cost ties. The result is beautiful, and better yet, they specifically make them in school colors. One of the founding partners is Greg Jokl, a current Wake Forest student.

Three lucky Chic Deac readers will be winning ties next week - one of each of their signature styles. Check them out below and find out how to win the ties at the very bottom! The first style is the Signature Plaid. This tie is different than the usual tie seen out there in the world of work. It is available here on the Dapper Duds site.



The second is the wide stripe black and gold tie. It's classically styled and would be great for any tailgate. It can be found here on the Dapper Duds website.


Lastly, we really love the Dapper Stripe black and gold tie. This style is perfect for work and would look good on any man. Check it out here.


Now, how do you win one of these Dapper Duds ties for yourself or your man? Submit a picture of you wearing black and gold. It's super easy and you could get a free tie out of it! Send your entries to chicdeacstyle@gmail.com!
