The bow tie. It's not just for waiters. Frugalgrrl navigates the trend.]]> What do you think of when you think of bow ties? Pasta? College professors, Orville Redenbacher, Pee Wee Herman or the maitre d’?

Well, how about the Jonas Brothers, ‘Gossip Girl‘, ‘Mad Men‘, Manolo Blahnik, Karl Lagerfeld and David Beckham?

Yes, the bow tie is cool again. You didn’t hear it here first, but we figure if the Wall Street Journal took notice, then we should, too.

Cuchillo Bow Tie from Beau Ties, Ltd.

‘A well tied tie is the first serious step in life’

– Oscar Wilde, who knew a thing or two about style (among other things!).
