Tie of the Day

 Another day, another tie but this was yesterday.

Not much is seen because of the knit but believe me it is there.

So here is the culprit then.

A Duchamp striped silk wool blend. 

Fat end rather narrow.

Even more ties of the day.

Saturday Night

 Saturday night beckons.. and is all right...

This is actually my tie of the day post, and the tie is no (recognizable) brand name but supposed to be silk.

TOD: Tie of the Day today

Stephen Fry has just written a book about ties on the back of his series of Instagram posts last year, in one of which he professed his undying loyalty to M&S ties, so I am following in his footsteps with this rather awful M&S all polyester "bee" tie but I call it my "fly tie".

Whoever gave it to me must have thought it was funny.

Being a polyester tie it doesn't tie all that well but can still be worn.

Here are more pictures of the tie from some earlier time.

Necktie Wardrobe

This will be my composite blog entry dedicated to the ties worn by me recently, with newest entries coming on top.

Tie # 10 - again

 

 

Tie # 15 - Uniqlo black China made silk tie, no label

 

Tie - Canali and Zegna foulards

Tie and tie wipes

Me school tie, if memory serves

Tie - Burberry with emblem

Tie # 13 - Banana Republic, stain resistant silk

I don't always do dimples.

According to M, tie knot dimples "smack of too much artifice".

Ties - two Burberrys, a Zegna and two Bosses

Ties in bulk.

These are my expensive failures.

But, like I said I have worn, and will wear, any tie, even one of these.

 

 Tie # 12 Zara striped

 

 

Tie # 11 Canali foulard 

 

 

Tie # 10 - Duchamp 

 

 

Tie # 9 - an Eton bow tie

 

 

Tie # 8 - some fuzzy silk Mango Man Tailored tie or something...  in a Chinese restaurant setting.

 

 

Tie # 7 - no brand  (Mario Machardi China made) name black with gray/white paisley and a security guard outfit

 

Tie # 6 - a no (recognizable) brand name grey with tan microdots

 

 

Tie # 5 - a novelty M&S "bee" (aka "fly") polyester tie

 

TOD 4 - the day before yesterday.

 

Here is the tie from yesterday, a lower end China made tie.

A very cheap job of dubious provenance that I didn't buy myself, however I'll wear any tie at least once.

The fat end on this one is really fat - 11 cm but I knew would be eating later in the day at some unsavory if artsy places so needed something broad to cover the shirt front rather like a napkin.

The apple from me own dacha.

 

TOD 3: Tie Of the Day early this week, I think, it was Monday, October 25, 2021

 

Today this tie 70% wool, 30% silk but nothing special some mall brand here. 

Still natural materials and good enough for my purposes.

 

TOD 2 - Tie of the day some time ago, a Uniqlo

 

A Uniqlo silk tie!

Doing some sprezza... not on purpose though, God forbid.

 TOD 1: Tie of the day even more time ago.

 

First wear of this Eton tie.
