I've done it a few times, usually because it provides a distinction between working at home (on side projects) and working in the office (on work related ones). Keeps me from getting sidetracked by random things and what not.

Sometimes helps you look smart on the journey too, if you're travelling through a more businesslike area to get to work.

Yes! The separation of work-life is huge. I've thrown a bowtie into the mix too for added levels. As well, the message the bowtie sends is impossible to put into words. It shows you don't give a damn about what anyone thinks but you still care immensely. Contrast with ripped jeans which would have to be very distinctly tailored to give off the same vibe.
