Bow ties are the essence of cool, collected, and creative. There is no reason to keep up the stereotypes of bow ties being only for nerds or tuxedo's (although nerds are awesome and tuxedos are arguably as sharp as a man can dress). Let's look at a few of the reasons to bring back bow ties in both business settings and our every day lives. It is almost the "Roaring Twenties" again, y'all!

1. Check out men's style!

It's almost the roaring twenties again ya'll! Let's get Great Gatsby glamorous. Bow ties are moving more and more towards a huge variety of styles, materials and textures. Just check out this next one...

2. Make people happy

Men can be dogs, but even dogs look cute in bow ties!

3. Permeate confidence

Chicks dig dudes with dogs and bow ties.

4. Be tenacious and gracious

Knowing how to tie a bow tie well show other people in the room what kinda person you are: smart, patient, clean, and efficient!

5. Elevate simplicity

A bow tie can take a simple outfit and turn it GQ in a heart beat. Who doesn't want a little GQ in their day to day?

6. Add 10 points to your I.Q.

There is nothing more intellectually sexy than a well worn bow tie. They are the choice of industry leaders and world changers throughout history! Check out Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, and even Bill Nye.

7. Embrace ambition

Bow ties have long been held as a sign of wealth and class. Embrace your desire to change the world!

8. Create a signature

Every good business person can agree on one thing: signatures sell. For Apple products, it's the packaging and operating system, for Toyota it's dependability, for McDonald's it's the Big Mac! Make yourself stand out, be unique, and most of all, memorable!

9. Rock the end of day look!

A loosened bow tie suggests a night of scotch on the rocks and swooning.

10. And tell me you don't want to look like Dicaprio!

Leo is the pinnacle of the modern man in a bow tie. Cheers to a revival of the gentleperson!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
