Hi lovelies, HAPPY NEW MONTH, Am sorry for not posting regularly, but am here now. HAPPY NEW MONTH, Due to popular demand from e-mails I have gotten, concerning the Father's day post, most guys in the mail insisted that I put up fashion blog post for men, so here I am with the post TYPES OF TIE KNOTS AND HOW TO KNOT THE TIE FOR STYLISH MEN.

So I listened to a group of stylish men argue during lunch hour at a friends office, funny enough it wasn't about football or Girls, It was about the NeckTie.

                                 HOW TO SELECT A TIE

  • Check out the SIZE,  keep in mind there are different sizes and shapes for different Knots.
  • Check out the FABRIC, wool, silk and cashmere.
  • Construction.
  • Colour more than any order thing should be taken into consideration, your complexion, colour of shirt should be considered.
  • Pattern is the most important of them all, a tie with stripes, a tie with polka dots, a plain tie, a tie with flowered patterns should be rightly selected for the right kind of shirt.  
A Flowered Print tie for a Plain shirt
A Tie with small stripes for a shirt with less bold stripes
A Plain Tie for a Suit crowned with a pocket square.
