this was another comment i posted on vivaglam's blog last year:
call me too western-oriented & old-fashioned, but ties = professionalism. that's why i always make the effort of wearing a tie, even in the office where it's not necessarily a requirement. heck, i've wanted to wear a tie ever since i was 7 years old, i was that much of a dork :-B
of course, it's not only wearing a tie, but also how one wears the tie (or the shirt in general). a guy would look sloppy & won't belong if the shirt's too untucked and the tie's too long or too short. it has to be just right. the proper wearing of the shirt & tie can mean the difference between a security guard being mean to you or being all polite.
what's the point of all these ramblings? a tie serves as the halfway point between a plain long-sleeved shirt and a suit/snazzy barong. it's not as high up the ladder, but you're getting there.
(i think this is also related to swipe's post about business attire, but i had only read about them a few weeks ago...)

I'm not much for ties although it's a convention I follow. It seems to make your dress shirt much more dressier.
Most times I think it's liable to get me strangled or something.
i know... some guys see it more as a leash... :P
hmm, maybe you tie your tie too tightly to cause a tightening in the neck? :>
No. I'm just affraid it might get caught in something like in the advert.
oh, the soup commercial... he3x! :D
i guess that's what tie clips & jackets are for, but what's the point of a jacket under the 37 degree sun? he3x! :D
it's a leash, indeed.
eya...you better wear my original calvin klein tie i bought for u or i will *grin*
