suit fashion question








as i mentioned recently, i haven't worn a whistle since november 2010.
( though i did buy two new suits in october 2010 and i do like them )

suits just aren't really needed in my day to day life.

you know i have two new ties all ready to wear:
 so if any of you would like
a moody looking person to attend your wedding / funeral and to eat all the scotch eggs
at your buffet, just drop me a line. i'm all ready with suits, ties and miserable expression.

er, anyway... my question is:
well i was walking down jermyn street the other day and i decided to take this photo
because it looks like the mannequin has a tweed face
( and you know i love tweed right ? )
then i noticed the little thing in his button-hole...








i checked out the next mannequin and he too had one of those little cuff-link
things in his button-hole
hmmm...








so did his mate
so my question is...

is this a fashion thing ? 
do you suit wearers actually put those cuff-link efforts in your button-holes ?
or is it just the way the shop has chosen to display the cuff-links ?


credit and sam... you work in the city... what's the story here ?
