A new crop of summer interns and recent college graduates have already descended upon Wall Street.

So if you're a newbie, you'll need to know what you should bring with you to work. 

We've compiled a list of ideas for accessories for what to bring to the office and what to never be caught owning.

Of course, there are certain items that are seen as more of a rite of passage that would not be appropriate for interns or first-year analysts.  (You'll have your chance one day!) 

Our thanks go out to The Fine Young Gentleman, who works downtown on Wall Street and runs a men's fashion blog, whom we consulted for some suggestions last Fall.  

Invest in a pocket square, but know when it's appropriate to wear them.

"A gentlemen should always have a pocket square in the breast of his pocket," says the Fine Young Gentleman.

However, a white linen handkerchief is preferable with hand rolled and stitched edges, he says, adding that a simple white one is the most versatile and also the most formal.  

"A large majority of men overlook this," says the FYG. 

For interns, the Fine Young Gentleman says DO NOT wear pocket squares to work because they are too flashy  



You should own cufflinks.

According to the Fine Young Gentleman, a young Wall Streeter should own a simple pair of cufflinks in both gold and silver.

"You need at least one pair to match with belt buckles," the FYG said. 

He said monogrammed, which are usually oval shaped and the knots are the more classic models of cufflinks.

If you wear French cuffed shirts with cufflinks you should wear a jacket, too. 



Buy yourself a nice looking watch.

The Fine Young Gentleman suggests buying a watch from makers such as Tag, Omega, Rolex and Hublot. 

"Yes, it shows you have some money, but it also show you have an appreciation for things that will last decades," he says.  "And most importantly maybe that you have a little style." 

"Extra points if you're an older gentleman rocking a three piece suit with a pocket watch, badass," he says.
