A trend that has been on the revived-rise for women of late is starting to make its way from the runway to the streets: menswear inspired accessories!
Bow ties are a prime example. One of the few male accessories around since the dawning of fashion time, this season its becoming a staple in a woman’s wardrobe to add a certain finishing touch.

This masculine accessory can complete - and compliment - just about any outfit you deem bow tie-worthy. What's great about the bow tie is that there is a lot of room for interpretation.
The bow tie plays into another, more pronounced trend for women: the detachable collar.

Again, if you want to dress up what could have been a bland outfit, or use it as a make-shift choker, this accessory should be looked at as an investment piece that could serve as an accent to your wardrobe for years to come.
