One of the little things I do when wearing a Jacket is I match my pocket square and my flashes.
It sort of ties things together.
It is the "little splash of color" that you often see referred to in the books on dressing well.

I ALWAYS wear a handkerchief in my breast pocket. Usually it is white linen, although I frequently wear patterned silk ones. Here are several pics showing how I wear them:










In the first four photos I am wearing the kilt...to keep it all on-topic!

Good thing, though, that my father and grandfather now hunt with St. Hubert on another shore, or they might just have taken a whip to me seeing an open-throated whipper-in.

They all look good but alas they cannot be used for the function they are ostensibly designed for.

I too tend to keep a simple white one on my person for use.

I agree. That's what the tie is for.
