TIE ONE ON

BLOUSES TIED UP WITH GIGANTIC BOWS ARE TRES CHIC.


The bow tie or ascot has certainly maintained a more masculine identity in years past. This trend, however, is one that toys with the bow tie's claimed masculinity. This blouse portrays nothing man and everything woman.

 The collared shirt has always been a more masculine piece, but that's what we love about it. It's starched and white and perfect with some snakeskin leather leggings... what could be better? A polka-dot bow tie, that's what.
