Volume 23: Neckwear

Greetings teeny readers!

You can stick it out, breathe down it, have a pain in it, or save sombody else's... it's your head pole and it's waiting to be lassoed with fashion. Feathers, flowers, silk, or diamonds—or even just a lowly polyester blend—find all the different ways to dress your neck in Teeny Zeeny 23, Neckwear, now on its way to subscribers' neck of the woods!

Neckwear through the ages has been both functional—men, women, and children used to wear stiff linen ruffs around their necks to keep their gowns and suits from having to be laundered so frequently; thankfully we now all just wear t-shirts—and purely decorative, like feather boas. Some neckwear has been passed down for generations, like priceless diamond necklaces; some lasts just a few days, like floral leis worn in Hawaii. Some neckwear is considered formal, like the distinguished cravat; some is considered something of a joke, like the world's most perfect dickey in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. What types of neckwear are in your house?
