Subtle Christmas Expressions with A Christmas Tie

People all over the world express the holiday spirit in so many ways, and they celebrate in hundreds of different ways, too. One family will have a different Christmas tradition from the family living next door to them, and each tradition will be just as special as the next. Even individuals will have their very own Christmas traditions to celebrate the most festive season of all. Some will wear holiday-inspired sweaters, like the Weasley family in the Harry Potter series, lovingly handcrafted by their mothers, and others will have subtle ways of expressing their love for the holidays by wearing Christmas ties like the Crimson Red Cream University Tie. Done in diagonal stripes of red set against cream background, this necktie gives just a hint of the festive spirit one feels during Christmastime. It can be worn during the holidays, or even on ordinary days, but what makes it special is the feeling the wearer has whenever he dons this special mens necktie on. Just like the Christmas stocking that is carefully kept in storage for a year only to be brought out again during Christmas, the Crimson Red Cream University Tie can also be carefully placed in stock for a year and brought out just as the families are gathering together for the holidays – it can symbolize that Christmas has indeed arrived and it is time to be jolly! No matter how people celebrate Christmas – extravagant, subtle, symbolic, lavish, the most important thing is that friends and families gather round to celebrate the birth of Christ, and they do so amidst love and cheers.

Christmas Is On You

There are few days to go until Christmas and you can already feel the rush and spirit in the air. The holiday season wouldn’t be complete without the bustling crowds and their last minute shopping, the aroma of delicious pastries and fruitcakes, a Santa Clause on every corner, bright flashing lights, Christmas trees in the background, presents underneath it, and parents with their children in tow.

But we’re forgetting one thing. It isn’t Christmas without someone wearing an audacious holiday occasion tie. What better way to deliver the Christmas spirit than to wear it on your neck. We’re not talking about Santa’s clothing. The Red White Striped Tie will certainly bring joy and laughter to any person who sees it.

Candy Cane ties are now the latest trend. At only US$18.95, be sure to get one before the last minute shoppers gobble it up.

How the Corporate Necktie Choke Us

Think of a city, trapped between development and poverty, now a floating victim of flooding. From above, the river that subsumed all of town looks like a Beige Brown Silk Necktie. Towers lose its eminence as it suddenly becomes part of the very disaster it had tried to evade by climbing up in the air. No doubt, because of the height of the flood, the tower, symbol of the corporate world, would now start questioning its decisions regarding the policies it imposes to itself, trickling down to its pawns and that which affects the larger mass of the population.

 

No, not its labor policies nor its corrupt ties with the government bureaucracy. Corporate people do not really believe in the interconnectedness of societal systems. Its not as if solid silk ties are snared around everyone’s necks linking them with each other. This refusal made them entertain the idea that everything “just happens.”

 

It would be difficult for them, of course, to accept that their businesses contribute the largest of the damages to our environment. To neutralize any other sort of perception springing from that argument, they would turn to what they call “Corporate Social Responsibility” on the pretense that it is the only way they could respond to the larger than life changes happening in the world. At the least, they are doing something. But the real idea is to put up a show that they’re responsible, when in reality they‘re only accounting for a speck of the harm they’ve been bringing to people since the dawn of the Industrial Revolution.

Ties to Set the Mood

You went into a job interview and the HR representative asked you, what do you think of the color blue? How would you respond?

 

First and foremost, when that truly happens, don’t get rattled. Of course, it is very hard to make a clear thought regarding an abstract concept like a color, much more to interpret it verbally. The least you could do is to maintain your composure and give the simplest answer you could spurt out while not suggesting any signs of nervousness and pretentiousness.

 

The reason for this is that the HR doesn’t really give an ass if your answer comes to near to the kind of morality she was raised with, nor if it favors the things in life she cherish the most. She is merely testing how you would handle pressure.

 

There are a lot of questions made for the same reason. So don’t loosen those ties, HR people might take that as a negative response. If you’re wary with your interviews, here’s a useful tip: do not look at your interviewers eyes, instead, look at the middle of her brows. That way, you don’t get distracted with her eye activities. Then think of solid silk ties. Its picture in your mind’s eye would definitely relax you. Well, thinking of a specific color has its effects. For example, when you think of a Royal Blue Silk Tie, you’d be inclined to take the interview as natural a conversation as you can. When you think of red, you’d be pushed to argue. When you think of green, your facial muscles would automatically react to make a “im thinking” expression without making you look dumb. Thinking of black does the same effect of thinking of green only that you’d appear to the interviewer dazed.

 

Of course, such imaginings would be more productive if you’d wear blue ties you would want to think of at the actual interview.
