and my money on my tie

Not that I had any bling (or ice for that matter) for Bling Bling day, so the tie had to do.

Worked last year for 80s day, too. What a multifunctional neckcessory.

everything was blue for him

Today was Staff Wears Blue Day for Spirit Week, so imagine this lovely Bill Blass number against a cerulean backdrop, cool like regret.

not nearly tacky enough

At least, so my students claim. But it is magenta. (This year I wore it with a plain white shirt, highlighting its magenta-ness.)

kiss me, I'm polyester

Hand-made, too. In Cambodia.

you may say that I'm a dreamer

Imagine all the people... living for polyester...

cardinal and golden dragons

Here's the dragon tie I would have worn this past Friday, were it not for senior Andrew Kim, who urged me to wear his football jersey instead.

Tie's origin: China. Specifically, a business trip to Hong Kong. Not by me, but my older sister. Thanks, Cath.

start in style

It was good for the first Thursday last year, so, since today was picture day, figured I might as well try my best to break the camera.

One more year, one more spin around the tie rack. (Racks, really. There are two.)
