Give yo Man a tie!

Posted in Fashion with tags , , , , , , , , , , on November 6, 2008 by yourgoodsailor

Buying for someone else is always more fun than buying for  yourself… especially if there is no occasion to warrant the gift.

I am a big fan of ties that really say a lot about a man. That being said, here are a couple of links and pictures of awesome places to order ties online.

Satisfactory’s online store: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5630248 An awesome Ship tie, and a Dinosaur tie from this site:

This is another store on Etsy that I have bought a tie from. They are hand screen-printed in Michigan, and come in some really cute packaging. They screen-print the tie after you order it, so you know it’s made just for you: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=58778 – Cyberoptix Tie Lab. I bought the one with the ship for a great friend, and was very impressed.

One of my favorite accessory is the fascinator. I can’t stop buying them, and they are so much fun to wear. They come with clips, and sometimes on headbands. They pretty much jazz up any outfit. Yeah… I said “jazz up”. This is the first one I ever bought from http://www.urbanoutfitters.com. The next two fascinators are from a website called Love, Lu Lu Mae. They have the best hair accessories ever, and a large array of fascinators.http://www.lovelulumae.bigcartel.com/  

I really feel like Kenley Collins, from Project Runway, is bringing the fascinator back.

I have also bought some fascinators on Etsy and Ebay.

Holy shit, I just happened to check out the Payless Shoes website, and couldn’t believe how stylish they’ve become. I am the first to say “Splurge on some good shoes, because they’ll last forever”, but honestly, with prices like these, who really cares if you have to buy 5 pair. These little booties are from Payless and only cost a whopping $30.

These are also from Payless, and I believe they are the most expensive shoes there at $48. These are a little more edgy, but with the right mini dress and stockings would be amazing!

So, if you haven’t heard of Etsy, it’s about freaking time that you did. This is one of my favorite websites because it sells only handmade and vintage items! I’ve gotten a ton of handmade stuff from Http://www.etsy.com, and love all of it. This is a necklace I found today. It’s handmade, and pretty affordable. I hate wearing the same jewelry as everyone else, so if you really want to stand out, you should start searching this site.
