The way you buy and wrap a Christmas tie is very important, too. Many make the mistake of using usual wrapping paper with the already tired designs of bells and candles and santa clauses. That's not wrong, nut it just shows a lack of imagination. Try, instead, using a special wrapping paper which will tell hint from the first sight that inside it's a piece of art which needs special attention. It's not a pair of casual socks or a sweater, but an accessory which add more style to they way he looks and that's needs special attention.

If on your list there's a man you need to offer a Christmas present, then our suggestion is to think very seriously about giving him a necktie. Even this blog is about silk ties, it's not mandatory ou give only silk ties as gifts: woven ties look very classy too and the can also serve as great gifts. Ties can vary in price, some may be pretty cheap, while others exceed 100 dollars, so you have a wide range to choose from. As you already may noticed, usually I recommend you checking the offers from a site where there're the best handpicked ties available.
This time is no exception, and I would like to introduce you a new hand-picked collection of ties which could stand very well as Christmas gifts for you beloved man: Ties for Christmas gifts. Please do check this list and choose which one you think would suit him the best. You might want to check also the older post on thicksilkties.com, as there are plenty of interesting ties available. I can't guarantee that your beloved man will be in the ninth cloud jumping all around the Christmas tree when he finds a tie wrapped as his gift in the morning, BUT, it is still a great gift for the professional man, the one who puts values on the way he looks.
Even the men who don't use to wear ties might need to have a few spare pair of ties for those days when they have to visit someone, attend an event or go to a wedding. A tie is the kind of present which doesn't get old very fast, they tend to keep their value for very long time, especially if they're a good quality tie, made out of exclusive materials and are well used. So, I've came with a lot of pro arguments on how great would be if you would give your men a tie. Still, it's you who has to make the final decision and probably it is not was either: you wasn't something to remind him of you all the year, a piece of something to make him happy and say "I really like it!". While with other gifts, especially clothes or shoes you might get wrong with the size or colour or both, usually the chance you go wrong with a tie is minimal. And that's because all are beautiful in their own way, just try to find out a little more about his general tastes. Also, a tie can be just a part of a Christmas present. You may wrap a box with a few interesting small presents in it, one of which would be a tie. He might get even more excited of having more than one gift in a single box and he might like it. A tie as a part of the Christmas present can be associated with some other accessory such as a belt, a key holder, some car accessories he likes to have, a cool gadget. It would even cooler if you could make so that the tie and the other gift are of the same colour patterns, so that there'll be a connection between those two. Ok, these were my Christmas gift ideas for your man. If you have others, including ties gift ideas or maybe if you already tried giving neck-ties to your beloved ones - your comments are kindly awaited below. Please do comment and tell what you think - that's really important for me.
Thank you and have a great day and happy Christmas buying!

What kind of tie do you need?


The history know a lot of type of ties: from those wide big pieces of white ties used in the 19-th century by French aristocrats, to the nowadays futuristic and modernistic ties, with printed texts from the Bible, or other inventions of the modern designers. In this article, I would like to give you some support and advice and help you decide what kind of tie you really need: a thick tie or a narrow one, a silk tie, or a cotton one. Let’s find out!

First of all, decide what kind of person you are, or, at least, what kind of person would you like to be like, who do you want to show in front of your business partners, colleagues, friends, etc. Starting from this, you will decide how you really want your tie to be. If you would like to show a person that is full of energy, dynamic, in constant search to achieve new horizons, then a tie in light and bright colors is what you are looking for. Take one in light brown, light blue, with yellow patterns, in silver tones, and for sure you will not be wrong.

On the other hand, if you a looking to show a person that is unlikely to make major and sudden changes, that follows a constant and classical way of taking decisions, that is not into the rush of making new innovations and bring too much changes in their life, then a tie in dark colors, but not in too much contrast with the general nuance of the suit or the shirt. The tie must not make a very contrasting background, this is why you need a color either in dark blue, dark green, dark grey, even black or brown, with some rigid shapes, coherent stripes or spots that will not attract too much attention to it. 

In the last decade there’s a trend of thickening the ties, as it is considered the thicker they are, the more masculine and impressive they look. A big knot, a wide tie they will look always good and will transmit a message of chic, class and good taste. From my point of view, thick ties are a very good choice, either for a special event, such like a wedding or a birthday or a presentation, or for a casual day-by-day work suit, where you have to look classy, too and you need a boost of confidence where you’re in front of your colleagues or business partners.

This is why I would recommend you to buy a thick silk tie, that will add more class to your outfit, and I can even recommend you a place where you can find some of the best silk ties, at very affordable prices and with fast delivery.

The Place of a Tie in a Man's Life


Silk is an elite fabric, since the ancient times, people from the higher societies were using silk clothes and accessories to highlight their aristocratic origins. Since then, a lot of things have changed, but silk remains to be one of the most appreciated fabric and it is still appreciated by many. It is used both in clothes, accessories and lingerie, it is a fabric produced by natural means, by the silk worms, it is non-allergic, and it reflects the light in its own specific way, which make look very special and like no other tissue.

One of the most popular accessories in a man’s wardrobe remains the tie. And ties are nowadays manufactured from different tissues and fabrics, including from silk.

Younger adults tend to catch now the latest trend and wear bright thick silk ties, sometime even in floral patterns, sometimes very dark, if they want to put them in contrast with their outfit. Senior adults tend to wear more sharp patterns, usually geometric shapes and not so contrasting ties. 

From my point of view, a thick silk tie will always put more weight and add more personality to every man. Living in a century of abundance, where we want to prove that we can afford to wear big, yet elegant, accessories, lets the men of nowadays to wear thicker silk ties, with bigger knots, that will add more value and superiority to their overall appearance.

The silk and today's trends

Silk is a fabric that since the ancient times played a great role in the development of cultures and arts of several civilizations. We all know that Japanese ancient civilization, Chinese, Korean, and generally, the Eastern Asia was usually linked to the silk production and silk market. Since those times, nothing very substantially changed. Silk remains to be the most appreciated fabric in the world and it is still a very popular fabric.

Ask any designer in the world and they will tell you that silk is a very beautiful and special fabric, but yet, it is not so easy to work in silk. It runs easily, it is hard to keep under the scissors and to cut properly. This is why, all the silk-made clothes, lingerie and other accessories are priced higher than ordinary linen, synthetics or cotton products, which are easier to work with and don’t require so much attention when you work with them.

What I appreciate the most in the silk are its glares and the way it reflects the light and the shines it reflects. I believe that reflections and the soft appearance of silk are one of the main reasons why ladies from all over the world and since all the times have appreciated silk and have dreamed to have at least one accessory or one piece of clothing that would have been made out of silk. It is just very attractive and it still stands for being trendy to wear a silk-made clothe or accessory.

Men also haven’t been left outside the frames of the silk trend and designers have invented some pieces of clothes for them, too. Silk shirts were a big hit a few decades ago and you can still meet classy gentlemen that choose to wear them as a daily clothe. Let’s not forget about one of the essential men’s accessories: the tie. Silk ties have always been a very attractive and beautiful piece of style, which always have been appreciated and designed to add even more class to a suit or a sweater.

Adding a silk tie to your wardrobe is easy and with it, you can bring more variety in the way some people see you and the way you show yourself in front of others. A thick silk tie, which is the latest trend in the last decade, is the most worn accessory by men of all age groups, no matter if it is for a special event or it is for a routine day by day usage. It is a much appreciated and wanted piece of clothing that can radically change the light in which you appear in front of others and can substantially change the looks of your entire outfit.
