Fashion: Bow-ties

There are some fads I refuse to jump on board with- like Twitter. Then there are some that I fight but eventually have to accept. I have a group of friends who have decided that it is okay to wear bow ties. It has really been an NYC/tri-state occurance for a little while now. I go to school in DC- so at school only one individual subjects me to the madness of bow-ties, crazy colors & skinny jeans. I would sit there and with all my might try to convince him as he picked out his clothes that he could do without the bow-tie especially with a casual outfit.

The bow-tie thing drove me insane. Unfortunately it got worse for me when I went home for the summer. Here I thought one individual was merely on their next level fashion ish (like Andre 3000 meets Pharell). SMDH. I started to notice a whole bunch of my guy friends sporting bow-ties. To the point that I met up with them one evening after they had gone out to dinner and all but one guy in the group had on a bow-tie! B Rob's was even on a chain. I questioned them as to why (why, oh why?)and never received a satisfactory answer.

That same individual who I go to school with happens to be one of my bff's at school. His birthday was back in August and what do you think I considered getting him? Yeah, you guessed it, a Bow-Tie from BK Circus. I didn't actually end up getting him a gift (opps) But the thought was there- Now I'm supporting the trend. If you can't beat them join them? Ha.

Deuces,
