Quirky Cartoon Neck Ties

This Adventure Time Bow Tie is an Eccentric Accent to Any Outfit

— November 28, 2012 — Fashion
Fans of the cartoon are sure to be impressed by this Adventure Time bow tie.

The yellow bow tie is embellished with main character Jake's face and is certainly not for the faint-of-heart as this finishing touch will take courage to pull off. The tie is perfect for the inexperienced or infantile as it comes pre-tied for easily slipping it on and off. It's sized for an adult but can be adjusted to fit the neck of any kid or kid-at-heart.

The tie is amongst other cartoon-inspired creations that have geeks jumping for joy while adding pops of color and wit to otherwise boring business attire. Although it may not be office appropriate, the Adventure Time bow tie would pair well with any casual outfit on the weekend or during a holiday.
