[the reveal: CHIANG MAI BOWTIE]

so what's a guy to do when he has a small amount of an iconic fabric,
a love for classic fashion and interior design?
he combines them both and gets a Chiang Mai Bowtie made.

special thanks to brownbelle for making these bowties for me, at my personal specifications and for such great photography.

this bowtie is unconventional, but i am very pleased. so pleased that i will be wearing one of them  during my next segment with nate berkus on wednesday 

and tomorrow night during a book signing in new york city with holly becker of the blog decor8.

i'd LOVE to hear each one of your THOUGHTS...

I LOOOOOOVE the way they turned out! And I love that they really prove what I admire the most about this fabric - that it has so many colors to pull out as you can see from your bowties. You've got 2 totally different looking bowties, it's phenomenal!

I didn't think the fabric would sew up this well. congratulations for having the foresight. If they are just for you, you don't need the adjustable part. Cant wait to see what you have for us on the Nate show. Ann

Style is a language that communicates one's character, personal expression, and individuality by applying the art of fashion. This is a one-of-a-kind combination styles that uses fun colors, patterns, and textures.With these bow ties, definitely the wearer receives two or more completely different looks.

Wow I absolutely LOVE these!! I'm already thinking how to adapt this to hair accessories ;)
