cuff links too formal for sixth form? (we have to wear a suit and a tie as part of the dress code)

It depends how formal your sixth form is I guess....
Wait till term starts and see what everyone else does.
You may run the risk of being labelled as pretentious :p:

We have 2 wear a suit but the shurts that most people have come with buttons. So if urs dont, then wear cufflinks, dont worry about lookin pretentious or nethin like that, go 4 it!

I sometimes wear cufflinks (most of my bespoke shirts are to be used with cufflinks). Usually with some kind of v-neck and to make it not look formal at all i'll throw in some old jeans or something and a screwed up pair of chuck taylor's ehhe.

I love double cuffed shirts, they look so much cleaner than buttons.
get a few shirts from http://www.thomaspink.co.uk/ and you will look great.
Maybe a little OTT from sixth form, but it depends on the type of sixth form...

I just buy shirts, and if they're double-cuffed I wear cufflinks. If they're buttoned, so be it.

and a similar one but in black, however i didn't realise they were cufflinked shirts until i opened them ;<

btw those shirts are so hard to iron out, it took me nearly 30min per shirt ;/

Go down to the dry cleaners and get it done for 1.50 (washed and ironed). Its easier and quicker.
