I had a meeting with some insurance types today (no, they weren't actuaries). Of the four men from two companies, all but one had cuff links. They're perfectly acceptable here, so there's no reason to not wear them if that's what you like.

From a pure fashion perspective, French cuffs/cuff links hit their peak here last year or the year before, and they're no longer the most "in" thing. But as YVR Cockroach noted, most people wouldn't notice and if they did, they probably wouldn't have a strong opinion on them.

Oh, and adding to the list of obvious things, don't wear white socks with your suit!
