I wanted to share my very limited fashion sense with the group. One of my bow tie suppliers (BeauTies of Vermont) has put out a train bow tie with a Christmas theme. Mine came today.

Peter, really neat, Great tie. When first seeing this speculated if "real" or fake clip-on. Bur thought would not think Peter would go to clip-on route. This was asked and answered.
Real bow ties are fun. Back in the mid-90's worked in an environment where shirt and tie were expected if you were to get professional recognition. So bought and learned to tie a bow. When started to wear it occasionally drew some attention. Then someone told the speculation that it was a clip-on. So started coming to work with it untied tucked under collar. Sometime in the morning would tie it in my work space or wait till a mens room break. Once while in the mens room supervisor came in remarking many thought it a fake clip-on. Retorted NO like me nothing fake!
Now for the life of me probably cannot tie one.
