On the day before the kids go back to school I chose to bring back an old favorite. I picked up this vintage tie at Andy's Cheepees over ten years ago when I first got into the bow tie game. I was initially inspired by the style of the musicians featured in Ken Burns' Jazz documentary that ran on PBS during my first year of teaching. Ever since then I've enjoyed the challenge of incorporating my personal taste with a love for the classic, timeless look of the bow tie. If you get a chance to visit their shop, you've got to ask the clerk behind the counter for their clear plastic containers full of bow ties. They'll ask you whether you want the clip-on or the self-tie. You won't be disappointed by their selection of vintage treasures.
