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!
Mom and dad proof of life ✌🏻 Also, what a difference it makes having a baby that takes a bottle 🙏🏻 It felt WILD to me going out! Still figuring out pumping on the go, and still went back home to nurse overnight… but wow!
Nothing says summer to me like finally being able to have dinner outside with our friends. We are gearing up for al fresco dining with @mackenziechilds pieces in their iconic Royal Check– the blue and white pattern couldn’t be more “me” and fits in perfectly with my summertime aesthetic. I especially love that each #mackenziechilds handcrafted piece has a unique signature of its own and no two pieces are identical. Don’t forget to use my exclusive code CARLYROYAL15 to save 15% off for the next 48 hours. Valid once per shopper. #MCPartner #RoyalCheckCollection
Move over coastal grandmother, it’s going to be a red hot summer for me ❤️💃🏻🔥 I am love-love-loving red lately and I am incorporating the hue more and more into my everyday outfits. It’s a little bolder than I typically go for and, even though I’m three months postpartum, I’m feelin’ it! 👉🏻 Leave a comment saying “red” and I’ll send you the links to my outfits featured in the Reel!
My little roar-bear and I made it through the fourth trimester together 🧸 These past twelve weeks have flown by. I can’t wrap my head around the fact that we only just met- I feel like I have known Rory my whole life.
I have been calling myself a Chill Mom™️ since having Jack and now I’m realizing that I’m even chiller with Rory. (Like is birth order really less about sibling order and more about the version of mom you’re born to?) I’ve been just rolling with Rory’s infancy and I’m so much happier. Maybe it’s just that I’m more tired with a toddler too, or know that it’s going to go by so fast, or just have more confidence… probably a combination. I feel less obsessive and less stressed out by the details. I’m “making it” without having to fake it. As an example, today I noticed I hadn’t tracked a single nap- just watching sleepy cues and trying to get to a “good enough” pattern as Rory’s naps consolidate. Is he following a ~perfect~ nap schedule? No. Are we thriving? Frankly, yes!
(If you want to read my original Chill Mom post, comment “chill mom” and l’ll send it to you via DM!)

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.
