Local bow-tie line
The dapper man's wardrobe this spring won't be complete without the men's accessory of the moment: the bow tie. Lucky for him, local neckwear line Freedom From Doubt just launched its spring collection. The preppy striped bow ties add a crisp, nautical and jaunty touch -- perfect for those summer yacht parties. Best of all, this dandy look is unisex.
