Ari Gold's Tie Knot...a tie knot not to wear


With the latest season of HBO's Entourage kicking off, there are several things I enjoy watching for: new sports cars, cool sunglasses and Ari Gold's tie knots. The characters bold Windsor knot is a perfect choice for someone like Gold, however for day-to-day business in the real world, beware of the pretense a knot like that can convey. James Bond doesn't trust men who wear Windsors. I can assume Mr. Bond didn't have too much time for dandyism and frankly in an era where we need to hustle, we shouldn't either. Having style is also having a bit of a devil-may-care attitude, and the Windsor is just too precise for that.
