Remember the Tie or Die contest between two friends/co-worker for the whole month of October that I told you about a few weeks ago? Well, the winner has been announced and it is…

…Ryan Brown. Total score was : Jon Fruman won 8 days while Ryan Brown won 14 days.

Ryan Brown was my pick from the beginning. He was more creative in incorporating other items in his outfits with the neckties. Items like blazers, cardigans, vests, hats, and even umbrellas. Not to mention the humorous accessories and poses which made me laughed out loud every time I visited the site.

If you want to show your support for Breast Cancer Awareness month, one way to do it is wearing these Breast Cancer Awareness neckties. I was amazed at how beautiful the neckties are. So I’m sure you’ll find a couple to show your support for the BCA cause.

One day, 2 friends/co-worker named Jon Fruman and Ryan Brown thought what if they wore a necktie everyday for the month of October? And to make it more interesting, let people vote on who wear the tie best. But first, they had to make rules and here they are :

I can imagine it’s frustrating to search for neckties with a pattern that you like, can live with, and willing to spend money on. Most good ties would cost at about $50 and upwards. Once in a while you’ll find ones that are on sale and maybe around $35 to $40. The Te Bar is changing that game. They’re offering assorted neckties in different patterns which cost only $15 each. In some patterns, $20 for longer lengths.
Let me show example of The Tie Bar neckties in carious patterns.

Perk up your work wear by adding bright colors in your neckties. And when I say bright colors I don’t mean the neon kinds.
Brands like Ike Behar, Ted Barker and Robert Graham have a few spring colored silk neckties that I’m sure you would love.
I love the subtle hues of purple, pink, green, orange, and blues. The different patterns like wide and thin stripes, paisley, squares and diamonds also gives you a variety to chose from.
You can find these and more Ike Behar, Ted Barker, and Robert Graham spring silk neckties at Nordstroms.

I may not completely recommend most neckties with novelty prints but I’ll go along with Tommy Hilfiger’s humor and spirit of fun by showing them to you.

The Best In Show is around the corner. How apropos is this Tommy Hilfiger Scotty Plaid Clud Silk Tie with Scottish Terriers all over? It’s kinda cheesy but if you’re a pet lover who happens to be attending the show, then this is just the silk tie to wear . $36.99 at Macy’s.
