I rarely wear a tie, but I always wear a pocket square. It looks excellent.

It's a great look and depending on your choice of square you could be cock of the block:

All the time. Only wear a tie once or twice a week whenever I feel like it. Pocket square all days.

Like everyone else, I don't see any reason not to wear one. When it's done right it looks outstanding.

A square is essential in jackets worn without a tie, even if you just stick with a plain, linen square.

It's definitely a trend in my part of the world. I voted 'no', but groupthink may make me reconsider that (as per now, 'yes' has an overwhelming lead).

I rarely wear ties (and usually not with jackets when I do), but I virtually always wear a PS in any jacket that has a breast pocket. Why pass up an opportunity for a little flair?
