Tying a tie

[Bonobo]

I know the simple knot, but tomorrow I am going to the schoolyear end celebration, so I tried to learn the Windsor knot. I found out it is absolutely hopeless and my father-in-law is going to do it for me.



Normally I don`t wear ties what you could see in the pics, but I bought an orange tie and will wear it with a navy blue shirt tomorrow. I want to look smart. It is normal for ageing men, I suppose.

I am also thinking of dying my hair. Is it normal too?

Well, I think that as we get older we come to appreciate formality and the importance of some ceremonies. It's just more respectful. I am sure your color combination will make you look very sharp! If your wife gives you a kiss and tells you that you look handsome then you can be sure.

In general, I think that tying a noose (no matter how lovely) around your neck is a poor way to start the day.

I don't have enough hair to dye, but I have dyed my mustache and beard. It was great for awhile, but I am too lazy to perform all the maintenance required.

Don't give up on the dye job, it helps keep you young. I think I may try it, myself.
I think all adult men, know how to tie a tie anyway.

I won`t. I have already bought a dye. My favourite color.



Do you know what is the name of the color? It is strictly connected with the Polish culture....

Polish producer made it, that is why it was cheap as dirt - only 1.5$.

I think I may try it, myself.

I definitely recommend it to you. You will feel much younger as you said and young lasses will admire you more than now.

Yes, I shocked everybody around.

We never do such silly things in the morning.

We wait till the night. ;D ;D ;D

It is an open invitation to unwelcome guests.

I once dyed my beard and the neighbourhood almost died of shock.
