Ties Now Socially Essential

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is famous for his casual style. But the billionaire has shown once and for all that when you want to look your best a tie is an essential part of your look.

Zuckerberg met Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda in Japan yesterday and in our view looked all the better for wearing a tie!

By the way - do you 'like' the Ties Planet facebook page yet?

Poll Predicts the End for Ties

According to a poll by DealJungle.com ties are likely to be extinct in 50 years time.
