Fashion Friday: Stylish Bowties for the Groomsmen

Hey everyone and Happy Friday!  I normally focus on women's fashion on Fridays, but today I'm switching it up and posting about the guys, the groomsmen in particular.  If you're looking for a way to bring some edge to the groomsmen's attire, how about a bowtie?  It's different, unexpected, and it gives the groomsmen an opportunity to get a little creative.  Take a look at some of my suggestions.

1.  Red, white and blue check-Pairs well with a knaki suit for an outdoor casual wedding.

2.  Summer Brights-Wear with a gray suit for an instant splash of color.

3.  Stripes and polka dots-Pairs well with a classic black suit or tuxedo.

So what do you think?  Do you see any bowties in your future?

Happy Planning!
