This week it is all about Ties…..
Ties are making a well deserved come back, and the vintage or thrift shops are the perfect places to find this accessory, colours, materials (silk or knitted) and the patterns can be extremely unique. A perfect way to style up with a blazer, shirt or even a keep it simple with a relaxed piece of knitwear.

At first it can feel strange to wear, or formal in appearance. Remembering how to knot (this therapeutic movement reminds me of my school mornings). Ties also come in different shapes thin or thick, silk or knitted, keep in mind what you have in your wardrobe so you can style easily, keep to dark bases as a tip, as this can easily be paired with other garments and the contrast against a white shirt is perfect, and then you can build on layering.
The look can also be smart or casual, so you can find what works for you easily. Once you start looking, you will be mesmerised by all the different designs you can find and bring back nostalgia, bow ties can also be an option to try on and explore.

Here is some ideas of how you can build on this look, keeping it simple with a white shirt, pairing with different materials, shapes and silhouettes. Blazers which is a staple in your wardrobe gives this look a different feel, I also like how you can keep the look casual withs uede, cord or denim shirts. Pick a tie which has tonal colours which fit your wardrobe will make it easier.
Using the same tie, you can create different looks.
