How to Tie the Perfect Bow

I sometimes stress over the small things. A while back when I used to work out regularly, my exercise of choice was running. Well... I eventually stopped running because my shoes always came undone. During that break, I learned some tricks of the trade that surprisingly carry over into fashion.

Did you know there is a right way to tie a bow, and a wrong way? Whether your wrapping presents or tying a sweater (such as the Twig Clover Tie Cardi), this method will guarantee you straight bows that won't come undone.

Step 1: Make a knot with the laces, ribbon, or whatever material you are using.

Step 2: Make a loop with one side of fabric.

Step 3: This step will make or break your bow. Take the other side of fabric and bring it behind and around the other loop. Make a knot.

Once you use this method, you will never go back to your crooked bows. Easy as pie!
