Pardon the pun, but Ron Paul and Newt Gingrich were tied for first place in the tie department at the latest Republican primary debates. Both Santorum and Romney wore the ubiquitous baby blue tie that should be banned from existence because it is so insipid - so they came in last. Gingrich's purple tie gets …

Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney are tied for LAST when it comes to ties. A serious political candidates needs a serious tie to make a powerful statement. Pastels are powerless, pale, passive, and pathetic. High-stakes contenders in the political or business arena need to work with an image consultant so their words are congruous with …

Newt Gingrich - You've fallen into the trap that most men do: wearing a blue tie with a blue suit. Boring. Your tie needs to pop and make a statement - like your red tie does. Your tie would look fine if it were red with small blue stripes; that way, the red would make …

Congressman Santorum - Honestly, those baggy jeans and that grandpa sweater vest when worn together go way beyond the pale. It makes you look downright hokey and not clued in. Remembering the storm that surrounded President Obama's "unfashionable" jeans a few years back, I feel compelled to make a comparison. The President was advised to …

Dear President Obama - Please give up those grey suits. They make you look much older and very tired. Please remember that grey has mostly negative connotations: a grey area, a grey lie, old and grey, sad and grey, tired and grey. Of course, it's favored by politicians because it personifies a grey area that …

Katy Perry, what were you thinking? This dress makes you look matronly. You need to fire your stylist. I don't mind blue hair, but that hairstyle is also unflattering - it makes your neck look too muscular. Throw that gown away! Rhiianna, this is your best look yet. Keep that sexy blonde hair. Red is …

Kim Kardashian looks elegant and toned in her beautiful white pantsuit, worn on her recent European trip. It makes her waist look slim, and the padded shoulders of the white top balance her hips and show off an hourglass figure. This is the kind of look she might consider adopting. It's covertly sexy rather than …

President Obama was in top form last night, and particularly in the arena of image. This is the way the President should dress at all times. The dark suit conveys power and authority, the white shirt is formality but also very elegant and refined. And there is only one tie that is more powerful than …

It''s no wonder this color has been dubbed Royal Blue. It is one of the loveliest colors Mrs. Obama has worn, and she looked exquisite last night at the State of the Union address. I'd like to see the neckline an inch or two lower, however, as the proportions would be more harmonious and flattering.
