Ask your Chief Pilot/Base Supervisor. Not every company permits their employees to wear them, but if they do, you're expect to wear the appropriate code share partner's tie typically, not something you found at WallsMart.

Who cares?!? Wearing a pink tie or epaulet does absolutely nothing except stroke your own ego.
For most people it's become nothing more than a trendy "feel good" fashion statement.

That's a pretty arrogant and classless comment. Some of those people that wear them to, as you say, "feel good" have actually been affected by cancer. I'll wear my pink tie this month as a reminder of what my mom had to go through and that she has been cancer-free for 10 years.

If you're not one of those narcissistic people who dress up for the sole purpose of parading their selfies all over Instagram, then disregard. This isn't about you, so don't take it so personally.
