Bowties Have Celebrity Women All Tied Up - Knotty by Nature

We've grown accustomed to Chuck Bass and his dandy array of bowties. But at the end of the day, we want to date him, not dress like him.

Try telling that to these starlets and, yes, even spouses of heads of state. From Colonel Sanders ribbon ties to blousy numbers seemingly swiped from Elaine Stritch's closet, these gals have jumped on the neckwear bandwagon and buckled themselves in.

We're on the fence when it comes to this trend, but we'll let you be the judge.

Click here to see Jennifer Aniston rock a tie ... and nothing else.

Bowtie Babes Get Knotty
See which stars are all tied up in this trend.

Bowtie Babes Get Knotty

    We know a socialite like "The City" star Olivia Palermo, shown here at a Diesel party in August, has got to have money ... so why is she dressing like Raggedy Andy? We can only imagine the eye-bulging, jaw-dropping faces co-star Whitney Port made when she saw this get-up.

    Jamie McCarthy, Getty Images

    Seeing Kirsten Dunst at the Opening Ceremony Tokyo launch party in August, we don't know if we should hand her a broom or ask for a drumstick. The dress is totally French maid, but that skinny black tie is pure Colonel Sanders.

    Getty Images

    Part Marlene Dietrich, part Chippendale's dancer, Diane Kruger's sleeveless penguin suit for the Melbourne premiere of "Inglourious Basterds" last month boasted a studded black bowtie and suspenders.

    Getty Images

    You dropped the Bond on me, buh-baby. While everyone else swanned around in ballgowns, envelope-pusher Rihanna went the 007 route in a tux for May's "The Model as Muse" Costume Institute Gala at the Met. Dare we say we have a girl crush?

    Getty Images

    Et tu, Michelle? The First Lady tied one on for an awards ceremony for the International Women of Courage in March.

    Getty Images

    We thought marrying Tom Green was questionable, but the striped bow tie Drew Barrymore wore last month brings lapses in judgment to a whole 'nother level. And can we talk about that old man pajama top?

    PacificCoastNews.com

    Michelle Obama isn't the only First Lady with a knot-ty side. At the NATO Summit in April, French First Lady Carla Bruni opted for a gray coat with a chunky tie detail.

If you're lucky you don't know what it's like to be the "fat friend", well that was me, and it isn't fun. I tried everything you ever heard of in an attempt to lose weight. I went through those scam acai berry "diet" pills, none of which work, and lost nothing but money. I never gave up trying and about 6 months ago I discovered Grow Lean, ( http://cli.gs/GrowLean ) It is unlike anything else I ever tried before and it actually helps you burn fat, as well as make you look younger. Anyway, I started losing weight rapidly and now I'm the one getting the compliments when we all go out. What a life changer that has been.

I think that bow ties are trendy if worn the right way and worn confidently. There are so many versions that can make an outfit go wrong, which can make it seem like a fashion faux pas. I recently found this fun line www.tyesbytara.com. I hope this line gets you off the fence, because I really like it. Thanks, Katie.
