They get caught in the jewelry cases, the sonic cleaner, <strong>the buffer<\/strong>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><h2>What a pain!<\/h2>\n<p>\nSo I started wearing <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2yutsGo\">tie tacks and bars<\/a> to hold my tie down. Let me tell you about them&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><h2>Tie tacks:<\/h2>\n<p>\nIt first started with tie tacks&#8230; I bought a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2PMsR9Q\">yellow gold CZ tie tack<\/a>. <strong>It looked awesome<\/strong>. It sat low to the tie and I loved it. But I hated sticking that sharp pin through my <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2NUby4H\">expensive ties<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\nBut no matter how careful you were you could always see the <strong>poke marks<\/strong> it left behind and every now and then it would snag my tie and runnnnnn. <strong>Arggh!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>So I gave up on tie tacks. I moved onto&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><h2>Tie bars:<\/h2>\n<p>\n<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2PMidQa\">Tie bars<\/a> <strong>drove me nuts.<\/strong> I could never get the bar to look straight. It was always leaning or getting bunched up and <strong>diagonal<\/strong>. The tie would have bulges in it and the tie bar would leave <strong>creases and indentations<\/strong> in the silk.<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>Frustrated, I gave up on those as well.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><h2>Tie chains:<\/h2>\n<p>\nThen along came the chains&#8230; <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2R2pnQL\">Tie chains<\/a> changed my life. I must say, <strong>I fell in love with them<\/strong>. Love the way they look, love the way they feel&#8230; They don&#8217;t confine your tie and pin it down. The chain loosely holds your tie in place, while still giving it <strong>freedom, movement, and air<\/strong>. Chains like this look elegant and keep your tie where it belongs and not blowing in the wind! Plus they <strong>don&#8217;t damage your ties either!<\/strong> Nothing gets clipped, pinched, poked or clamped.<\/p>\n<p>\n<strong>The chain encircles your tie and looks beautiful.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nA tie chain has a small loop that hooks over your shirt button (See photo above). The biggest problem I found with tie chains is that <strong>they aren&#8217;t secure<\/strong>. They can come off your button easily and you&#8217;ll end up <strong>losing the chain<\/strong>. I can&#8217;t tell you how many I lost before I finally <strong>found a different solution<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><h2>I made my own tie chain!<\/h2>\n<p>\nYou see, the biggest issue I had with chains was that they were <strong>always coming loose<\/strong> and always <strong>gold plated as well!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\nI really didn&#8217;t like wearing a cheap piece of plated jewelry&#8230; (especially since <strong>I work in a jewelry store<\/strong>). So this is what I did&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\nI bought a <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2PJzoC0\">14kt yellow gold 8&#8243; men&#8217;s rope bracelet<\/a> (You can also <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2R7SdPL\">buy it in 10k<\/a> which is much cheaper and looks similar). <strong>Problem solved!<\/strong> You put the bracelet through your button hole-loop and fasten it (I usually wear mine about 3\/4 of the way down my tie). You then <strong>put your Tie through the Bracelet Loop<\/strong>. That&#8217;s it!<\/p>\n<p>\nIt holds it safe and secure, and because the bracelet is gold, it won&#8217;t tarnish or fade colors.<strong> It will last forever.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><h2>I&#8217;ve had mine for 8 years now and love it.<\/h2>\n<p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/The-Best-Tie-Chain-In-The-World.jpg\" alt=\"The Best Dressy Tie Chain In The World\" title=\"The Best Dressy Tie Chain In The World\" width=\"502\" height=\"99\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7597\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/The-Best-Tie-Chain-In-The-World.jpg 502w, https:\/\/www.jewelry-secrets.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/The-Best-Tie-Chain-In-The-World-300x59.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 502px) 100vw, 502px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\nYou can use any <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2PMGZ2L\">8&#8243; rope chain<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2PLfSFf\">rolo link chain<\/a>, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2R3Irhu\">wheat chain<\/a> any smooth thin <strong>8&#8243; bracelet<\/strong> should work <strong>awesome<\/strong> (Just don&#8217;t buy anything rough or it will <strong>snag your tie<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p>\nTrust me, it really does work!
