MANLy Monday: Two Telling Tie Truths

Ties are one of the most important fashion accessories for men. Unlike ladies where we can use handbags, shoes, jewelry, scarves, smartphone cases, belts, etc, the average man has just a few ways to ‘make it pop’. If you reside in a city like Washington, DC then the tie becomes even more important because we’re looking for something beyond the standard blue suit fare. There are lots of basic know-how things to remember about ties but today we’re focusing on
