Fortunately, I can wear pretty much what I like.. and do, unless meeting with board members or the like (not too often).

I do, however, have a serious objection to ties, and pretty much refuse to wear them. For those situation where a suit and tie is appropriate/expected, I tend to wear a mandarin collared shit, under a suit. Dressy, yet still not a tie. It also differentiates me from the hordes of suitandtie wearing drones out of marketing and accounting.
