HIPSTER RUNOFF » bow ties

Kute lil clown

Maybe bow ties are here to stay. I like this female clown with rosy cheeks. Or does she work in a cabaret? Or does she work in a themed restaurant? I wonder what the theme is.

I remember when I used to work at Chili’s before I moved to NYC, I had to wear a little bow tie. At least they gave me thousands of dollars worth of gift cards that I can give away to HRO readers.

I guess everything does happen for a reason. Maybe in a way, every one is famous. Maybe we’re all the same, and whether we’d like to admit it or not, we are all wearing bow ties. Whether it’s a brownie in the Middle East, or a Native American working in a casino on their reservation, we are all the same.

Rage Against the Bow Tie

Carles — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 16:08:00 +0000

I was really worried that bow ties were catching on. Remember the clown-Bro in a bow tie? Or the goth-alt with the bow tied necklace? It’s good to see that regular ties are fighting back against emerging trends. Trends have feelings, too (yall).

I don’t understand substitution when it comes to ties. Why can’t a tie just stand for itself? Why do u have to create a non-functional replication of a product? It would be like getting tattos of pistols on your hips. U can’t use the guns to kill some1 if they are just drawn on u.

Sometimes metaphors are kind of deep. Most times metaphors are kind of FGGT. Sometimes we’re just afraid of change/progressive stuff, like when the internet came out and we typed stuff in it instead of using paper.

On a side-note:

What Blipsters Will Look Like in 2010

Bow ties are really blowing up. I’m excited about this summer, and how shorts will be integrated into outfits. I wonder if baggy Old Navy Cargo shorts will be in style, or if men will have to convert Express Men formal pants into shorts. Would men rather wear cute shorts and argyle socks, or board shorts and Doc Marten sandals?

Time Will Tell.

Do u like it better when black people wear street wear?
Or do you prefer white women in street wear?

P0ST M0RE B0W TIES

p0st m0re bowties

After the success of the bro in a bowtie & the AZN girl in a bow tie, there is a clear demand for bow ties in alternative markets.

Do you like that dude’s bow (tie) necklace?

Does any body know if Urban Outfitters is already selling this?
Would you ever consider wearing that necklace, or would it be kind of like the equivalent wearing Kanye sunglasses when it comes 2 form & function?

Bro in a Bow Tie

I was looking at theFaceHunter again, and I noticed a post where two out of five people were wearing bow ties. If you apply standard methods of internet trend forecasting logic, you will realize that 40% of the world will be wearing bow ties within the next several months.

I really like what this dude did with the whole bow tie and polka dot collared shirt. While the rest of his aesthetic would have you thinking that he usually wears a MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE shirt from Hot Topic, he really switched it up, and pulls off the clown-core look that I saw on Project Top Runway Model.

What’s more obnoxious: The skinny tie or the bow tie?
