A timeless piece of advice? Learn how to tie a tie. If you are a male, this is a basically a mandatory skill. If you are a female, learn it if you want to be fashion saavy and be able to incorporate the techniques to your scarves or pashminas.

How To Tie A Tie Step By Step

  1. Consider the tie split into 2 parts. A and B, like in the illustration. Cross A as the longer end over B.

2. Bring up A between the triangle that forms between the collar and the tie, and let it fall down.

 

3. Pull "A" underneath "B" and to the left, and back through the loop again

 

4. Bring A across from left to right.

5. Put A through the loop again. 

6. Slip A through the little loop that you have formed and adjust the knot so that it sits right at the level of your collar. Done.

Thanks for sharing this. I had no idea how to do them all. I think I'm going to grab my husbands ties to make sure I'm tying them right.

Well Ironically I think a lot of us men rely on the women in our life who seem to have quite a knack at this sort of thing.

It's a useful skill (and I could almost say necessary) to have. Especially if somebody is pursuing business...
