I have a question for you guys, who are all young people (and as such know young people fashion), relating to neckwear. I have a rather extensive collection of paisley neckties that I got for Christmas, plus a handful of other designs (I have a striped, a burgundy-coloured solid, some patterneds, etc.), but I don't have any bowties or ascots. I have a tiny bit of money because of relatives from Christmas and also I just had my birthday and I save really bloody well, so I was wondering your thoughts on if I should get, say, two bowties and two ascots or if I should just leave my neckwear collection as it is and find something else to invest in (say, expanding my antique coin collection).

Okay, so I was exaggerating slightly - it's not that extensive a collection; I have about five paisleys and five other neckties, but it's more extensive than your collection probably is.

I met my dad for lunch at his downtown office today for my birthday and I was dressed better than he was. I'm not going to buy a hoodie.

My bluejeans have a blowjob joke in the fly/zipper. That's the best I've got.
Also, happy birthday.

I don't mean the type of bowtie I'd wear with a black tie ensemble, I mean like the kind of bowtie worn by Harry Crane or Bert Cooper in Mad Men.

Jesus Christ, I just looked it up and apparently ascots aren't allowed to be worn to the fucking Royal Ascot! That's just wrong!

Okay, that's just because he's wearing neckwear with a polo. That should aggravate anyone.

Whenever I go to meetings with my principal, I wear a golden tie with an Eldredge knot over a light blue shirt and gray suit jacket.

For something slightly more formal I recommend a Windsor or Kelvin over the Eldredge, or, if you must bring complexity into the knot, go for a Trinity. If your principle is somewhat more relaxed I guess an Eldredge works but that's more of a party knot in my opinion.

I typically use a Kelvin knot when we're meeting sponsors and shit, but to just go for like PTA meetings and shit I'll use an Eldredge knot.
