Recently I started wearing bow ties to work. You'd think I'd reinvented the wheel based on the reactions received. <br />This is a great blog...I read many of them...and, well, I don't know how to break this to you gently ..but...it's not just about fashion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-2498631169477123082009-12-20T12:19:02.808-05:002009-12-20T12:19:02.808-05:00D- I'm very visual.

Not many are nowadays.<br /><br />Stew- I don't know if I'd wear a bow tie in your neck of the woods but I'm surprised as all get out you can find Regan's bitters in those woods.<br /><br />Enzo- Inspiration? I own all this crap and I'm runnin outta room.<br /><br />People's Biz- It's a University Stripe Oxford. Green in color and from Enzo's employer. Hell, Enzo may have designed it. <br /><br />EQV- When Ralph was trying to hire photographer, Slim Aarons, who was lacking confidence, Ralph said, "Hey, just rip yourself off." That's inspiration.<br /><br />Mac- I'm late getting to these comments so you'll have to tell me if you could find Manzanilla Sherry and if the drink was a thud or success. <br /><br />Anon, Alice and LWing- I don't think they know how old I am but don't say anything.<br /><br />Brummagen Joe- Where did you find bags? <br /><br />Chas Gifton- I apologise for using 'gifted' as a verb. I have more of an issue with it sounding affected which should not be confused with wearing a bow tie. <br /><br />F. E. Castleberry- I have no doubt that you will be pleased.tintinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652066200071703445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-1673840639219203482009-12-18T16:42:23.313-05:002009-12-18T16:42:23.313-05:00I think I'm getting a taste of the Giles patte...I think I'm getting a taste of the Giles pattern soon...I'm looking forward to its arrival.

But of late I've started wearing them with a pair of bags, appropriate check or striped shirt and a crew neck sweater of cashmere, merino or shetland.....the bow protrudes above the crew neck on the sweater. There are plenty of <br />20's and 30's refs for this look but I've not seen it around much. This bow would work very well in that context so I'll go ahead and order one.Brummagem Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998868549766033751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-24774484249377777112009-12-17T11:39:26.499-05:002009-12-17T11:39:26.499-05:00I think some men pull of a bow tie better than oth...I think some men pull of a bow tie better than others.
