TIE: Blackmail; Anthropologie

A tie? Between Gail Chovan's original pinnacle of monochromatic couture and taste (hint: Blackmail) and the international chain of elegant, upscale furnishings; decor; and odor-enhancing ointments (take a guess) and the wonders of come-hither design they work in their respective shops' windows? We reckon the tie must be at least three layers of black lace and organdy, scented with myrrh and Dalai Lama-blessed citrus leaves, and well worth bending your fashion budget for.
