How to wear a bolo tie even if you're not from Texas by Adam Hurly on Dec 1, 2015, 3:56 PM 
The often-polarizing bolo tie is migrating away from its southwest roots, making a very gradual ascension as an everyday menswear accessory. It consists of a silver-tipped strap and an ornamental clasp that usually recalls southwest culture—and often the Hopi, Navajo, Pueblo, and Zuni cultures that originated the style in the mid-20th century. With bolo tie advocates like Bruno Mars, Macklemore, and even Philip Rivers wearing one with confidence, it's high time more guys gave it a try. If you're feeling adventurous, here are a few ways you can wear a bolo tie.

Button your shirt (short- or long-sleeved) all the way up, tighten the clasp, and command the style like a bull rider. Keep that confidence high...or else you'll look like a rodeo clown.
The Casual Complement  Undo your top button and wear the tie more loosely around your neck, but still under the collar. It's half bolo-tie happy hour, half jewelry, but full-on bad-ass if you can pull it off.
The Weekend Accessory  Ditch the collar and pair the bolo tie with a tank top, denim jacket, or any other "festival wear" for a more laid-back style. We admit, it's a little Coachella-cliché, but maybe you and Macklemore will lock eyes and have a moment. Lucky you.
