“Black Tie Optional” ?



The question has been asked If an invitation reads “Black Tie Optional” what does this mean?  This usually means that the host would like men to dress up in a tuxedo and women in an evening gown, but doesn’t want to enforce it. Should you own a tux then you should wear it to the event! If you don’t, and don’t want to rent one, then a dark gray or black suit, white dress shirt, and an elegant solid color tie (best are black or silver) will be a good alternative with a white or silver pocket square.

Fashion Conscience

If you are a Fashion conscience male then here are few tips for you.  Make sure that your shirt is neatly pressed, your shoes and cufflinks are polished, and your pocket square goes perfectly with your Men's Silk Bowtie.  There are so many different style of Bowties too choose from, like the Standard size Izod Self-tie Bowtie or the Sean John Over Sized Bowtie.  Whatever you select, make sure that all the things you are wearing fit you perfectly so that you do not look sloppy.  Be sure that your pants fit you well because you might not be able to move and walk around if your pants aren’t correctly sized. Then you need to choose the correct shoes to go with your outfit. The minute you stand up, your shoes will certainly attract attention and it only takes one glance for people to evaluate your whole outfit.  And don’t forget to wear the right socks! Remember to wear longer socks, and of course choose a color that will be right for your outfit. Remember to dress in accordance with the situation and always feel confident in yourself and you can’t go wrong.

What is Black Tie Attire?



Traditional Black Tie Attire consists of a black tuxedo jacket, white dress shirt, either a cummerbund or a vest, a black bowtie, and polished black shoes. Most tuxedo jackets these days are single breasted. The lapel you choose is a personal preference. Most popular tux jackets are the notch lapel, but peak or shawl lapels are also common choices. As far as the dress shirt is concerned, the biggest difference lies in collar style as well as a pleated or non-pleated front.  Of course you can always spice up your look by adding a few accessories like a white pocket square and a set of classy cufflinks.

Defy Principle!

There are so many changes happening in and around the world, and these changes are definitely something we have never witnessed before. This holds true now more then ever with fashion. Men are dressing up very differently; much different from the way they used to dress years ago. Nowadays men are not afraid to defy principle, to dress according to what they want to wear. A great example of this is the Leopard Print Vest with matching accessories.  According to some of the bigger fashion houses animal print designs are going to be big in 2013.  Animal Print Designs have been featured at most of the 2013 Men's trade shows over the past couple of weeks.

School Spirit



It is time to show pride in your school and what better way then with a Collegiate Striped Necktie.  Of course the most common way of displaying loyalty to any sports team is to wear t-shirts or patches with the team’s logos. Fans will wear everything from jerseys to hooded sweatshirts and everything in between.  But how about when you have graduated from your university and you can no longer go to work wearing football jerseys or t-shirts? Should you stop showing your support for your school? Of course not! For those who have joined the rat race, or in a corporate setting, there are sharp looking collegiate striped neckties that can be worn with the protocol shirt, slacks and jacket. Collegiate striped ties are normally worn in many offices, because obviously each of the professionals working in there came from one college or another. So whether you want to wear a Red and Black college striped tie or an Orange and navy striped tie, you will  proudly proclaim your loyalty to your school without violating the dress code of the office.

Bow ties may be classic in looks but they give an expression of taste and style. Let a Designer Bowtie be a part of your wardrobe. These Bow ties are pleasant to look at and the colors will look sharp with any of your formal clothes.
