Cheers!

Today was a rare treat.  I wore a red, Series 417 by Van Heusen (a staple of the collection), tie that I actually liked.  Not only did I get to wear a tie that I wasn't ashamed of, but I convinced my favorite bartender Tommy at my favorite after work bar (http://www.yelp.com/biz/whitehorse-tavern-new-york) to show it off.

Fan"tie"sy Baseball

Great Idea...Poor Execution.  Out of my entire inherited collection, this one of a kind, hand painted, hideous, baseball themed tie by Nina Matricia seemed like the perfect tie to wear in honor of the MLB All-Star Game. Unfortunately, I was informed when I got to work that the game was on Tuesday.

Make Lemonade

When Life Gives You Lemons...

Today's Series 417 by Van Heusen 100% Silk tie didn't give me much to work with.  The busy pattern which was described to resemble "ivy growing up my neck" left me a bit uninspired. To compensate for the lack of style, I perfectly paired the tie with a matching grey shirt.  Fully coordinated, I proudly rode the train home with dignity knowing that even though people may think my clothes are ugly, they at least knew I wasn't color blind.

Re-Gift?

When I put on this Geoffrey Beene 100% silk tie today I thought it looked a bit familiar.  I didn't solve the mystery until after lunch when I noticed the hard plastic security bar hiding inside.  I bought the tie as a christmas gift a few years back.  Apparently it wasn't a winner.

Rain Dance Tie

In an effort to end the unrelenting heat overcoming the NYC area, I wore this blue raindrop patterned Geoffrey Beene 100% silk tie. Needless to say...my idea didn't work. Stay hydrated NY.

Happy Independence Day Eve!

Some ties I can't even pull off (even though I wore it at work all day).  Good thing I found a lucky Tieoneoff fan to model this exotic tropical themed Series 417 tie by Van Heusen made from 100% silk. Enjoy your day off tomorrow!

Back to school. Back to school, to prove to Dad that I'm not a fool

After a week long vacation away from reality, I got my lunch packed up, my boots tied tight, I hope I don't get in a fight. Back to School. Back to School. Well, here goes nothing...(thanks for the quote Billy Madison) in a vintage Christian Dior, Cravates all silk skinny tie covered with a stylish geometric cube pattern.
