Ben from Starboard Clothing Co. just emailed me introducing me to his line of beautifully crafted bowties.
Now, I like women’s fashion just as much as the next girl, but there is something oh-so-charming about clothing for men. And bowties??? I am a sucker for boy in a bowtie!
Starboard Clothing Co. was started by Ben Meredith, one of the co-owners/co-writers of one of the preppiest blogs on the block Bowties and Bowshoes. It’s only fitting that he started his own bowtie company!!!
The names of the bowties are absolutely precious…. I’m thinking there should definitely be a Carly Abigail one (anyone else agree??? haha)…
Oh dear. These bowties make me really want a boyfriend. Just so that I can match him right up with me.
But really, how cute would the yellow seersucker bowtie look with my blue seersucker dress???

= LOVE
If you are one of the lucky ones with preppy beaus (or, even better, a preppy beau yourself)… I think your next gift for your boyfriend must certainly come from Starboard Clothing Co!!!
Oh… and guess what! This post goes live at midnight and so does the new spring line!
I am officially in love! Starboard clothing co. your bowties have stolen my heart! Bowties make me swoon 😉 I will have to get my boyfriend one of these! too cute
SO CUTE! My boyfriend loves bowties so much he would wear a bowtie with his pjs if that were acceptable! I will definitely go take a look right now! Thanks for posting!
Have you ever worn/seen any of the Tracy Negoshian line. They sell it at either The Pink Palm or Kate Mckenzie in Tampa (my boyfriend lives in Tampa, I live in Miami. Tracy is a st. pete based designer and there was a big write up about her a month ago in the st pete times. She makes awesome, flattering dresses in tunics in normal preppy colors and SEC college colors. I have an adorable bell sleave orange and blue print dress in my beloved Gator colors. the uf football coaches wife, shelly meyer, wore one to the last uf bowl game and her picture was on the front page of the st pete times. I read that your sis goes to UF, she has to check out these dresses!! A uf sorority girl's dream!
Tonight we achieved the impossible! @wishbonekitchen’s swamp soup received a “no notes” stamp of approval from Mike 🙌🏻 it’s filling, healing, and so fresh! Highly recommend!!! 💚🌿🪀♻️🦖
If your goals for 2025 include reading more and having better habits, @audible audiobooks are about to be your best friend! I love listening to audiobooks, especially when they help me become a better person, wife, friend, mom, etc. January is the perfect time to dive into one and cross two of your goals off at once. I’m listening to Mel Robbins’ Let Them Theory and it’s blowing my mind– “let them” is such a simple phrase and yet the impact is POWERFUL.

Can we bring this kind of outfit of the day video over to this app 👀 tell me if you like it or hate it- in light of everything, trying to experiment! If you want links to what I’m wearing, leave a comment with “OUTFIT” and I’ll send it over!
Sorry for the jump scare… but go ahead and add “great at multitasking” to my resume 😆 is it habit stacking or just survival mode? Every morning, I’ve been doing a red light session with my @omniluxled face mask, while listening to an audiobook, and I spend the 10 minutes tidying up. I make the beds, put laundry away, straighten up the boys’ toys… I always feel on top of the world and like I can do anything 😆
I’ve been hesitant to add new skincare products to my daily routine because I don’t want to disrupt my healthy skin… I tested @oakessentials skincare line though and it’s now a staple in my weekly routine. I’m using these three 2-3x a week (the night before hair wash days!) and my skin is SO moisturized and hydrated!!
(Why has no one been using this song for this trend? Literally all that I hear whenever I see another “ins and outs” trend 😆)
My 2025 Ins & Outs:
IN More freedom, firmer boundaries Silver Red as a neutral Spontaneous lunch dates Photography Redefining perfection Silk scarves Going to the movies Trying new hobbies Luxurious showers
OUT Sticking with a book I’m not enjoying Letting my car be a mess Guilt around sweet treats Unnecessary people pleasing The comparison game Staying up too late Over complicating things Holding in emotions

Thanks for sharing, I agree, I have found my next purchase in the yellow seersucker!
I have a blue seersucker dress similar to the one you're wearing and I must agree, that bowtie compliments your dress so well!

I am in LOVE with bow ties! I wish my bf wore them!
I really really love vinyard vines ties and southern proper tees too!
I love that you incorporated some male fashion into your blog! Awesome!
I am definitely buying one of these for my boyfriend's birthday in April! I'm thinking one of the seersucker ones is essential to his wardrobe!
Oh honey. You want to match your boyfriend to your outfits. That's probably why you don't have one!
Where did you get that dress? It's adorable.
