If you've never done it before, it's not as easy as you might think. Here are ways to put on cufflinks for both types of dress shirts that have holes for them.
There are two kinds of cuffs you're likely to encounter: barrel cuffs, and French cuffs. For barrel cuffs, make sure you actually have holes for the cufflinks to go through. If not, you're going to be cutting them into your shirt, which isn't ideal. Remember how people are going to see the cufflinks: from the outside of the arm. Start from there and poke the link through the holes, then just turn the link's clip so that it stays there.
