The US Open is near, and there is a lot to be celebrating. Serena Williams is a favorite to win, which would be her 24th Grand Slam title and tie her with former Australian tennis star, Margaret Court, for the most wins ever, AND there is a new interactive monument to be unveiled honoring the trailblazer, Althea Gibson. Read more about this long overdue monument as well as a few other women trailblazers to be celebrated throughout New York City.

At the heart of andieanderin is a desire to collaborate, partner, and promote other women owned businesses. 

For the second time, we joined forces with fellow New York based women entrepreneurs to host a weekend long pop up we call Gal Pals Unite. See some pics from the shop and learn more about the amazing women owned businesses we collaborated with. 

2019 marks 50 years since the Stonewall Riots in New York City. The outward support for the LGBTQ+ community has grown substantially over the years, but we all know it has taken decades of hard work and heartbreak to reach today’s more inclusive environment AND there is always more work to be done to reach equality in the US and throughout the world. See 12 women from history and today that have contributed to advancing the rights of the LGBTQ+ community.

If you are anything like us, you tuned in live to watch the celebrities pour into the Met Gala on the first Monday of May...and have since scoured the internet for any looks we may have missed on tv :) Not to mention, the after-parties!

B-O-W-S were everywhere and we can barely handle it! 

To prove that bows owned the pink runway, see our gallery of bow-tastic Met Gala looks!

We recently joined Pinterest and to spread the word, we are sharing an excessive 50 photographs of the remarkable Princess Diana wearing bows and neckties because this is how we spent our first hour on Pinterest :)

Hope you enjoy these photos of philanthropist and fashion icon Princess Diana. Let us know your favorite look!

This past Friday, March 8 was International Women's Day. It was truly an EPIC day for us at andieanderin. We had an amazing display of community from our necktie tribe, we attended 4 events throughout the week, got some nice media coverage, and our necktie was on stage at sxsw for a feminist fashion talk! 

Read on for more highlights and to see all the amazing photos of our necktie tribe wearing their power neckties in honor of the day.

The 2019 Women's History Month theme is ‘Visionary Women: Champions of Peace and Nonviolence.’

The National Women’s History Alliance describes this year’s theme and honorees: “This year we honor women who have led efforts to end war, violence, and injustice and pioneered the use of nonviolence to change society." Continue reading to hear about the eleven honorees

If social movements have anything to do with it, we think so. Neckties have been around for centuries, worn by both men and women. The design and material has changed through the years, but to this day, a necktie is a necessity in a man’s wardrobe, yet nowhere on the list of closet necessities for women. But that could change in 2019...

Did you hear?

There is an extreme shortage of sweetheart candies this Valentine's Day. But no need to fear. It appears the new NECCO owners, Spangler, will be bringing back the nostalgic candies in 2020 and we have some suggestions for what to press into these candies...

Our neckties are each a celebration of an influential women from history or today. Each one has a unique name and distinct design that was directly influenced by the influential woman muse. 

See more details on how we developed each design.

On Friday, December 7, we will officially be 1! We are so incredibly thankful to everyone that has supported our business and rocked our neckties! It has been a year of learning with major highs and major lows, but all in the name of starting and growing a business. See our greatest hits from our first year!

Our power neckties make a great gift for any women or girl in your life, but it can be tough to decide which necktie would be the best fit for your special friend or family member. See our guide below for an expanded list of the necktie personalities.

Over the summer we took you into our designing world, but let GIFs tell the story. We have now compiled a gallery of photos taken throughout the process of designing our second collection of neckties. 

You will see that we have several iterations for each necktie design before settling on the one...and a lot of bathroom mirror selfies ;)

We will be ladies of the town this fall and winter! With events on both coasts, you can find us in Seattle and New York in the coming months. See the list of events and even some giveaways!!

There are power in numbers, especially when it comes to gathering women together. We recently hosted a group of amazing women to talk influence, necktie designs, and styling - not to mention it all took place at a cafe named after Ada Lovelace! It was a magical evening. Here are a few of the photos.

We want to let you in on a little behind the scenes action as to how we select our women muses and tackle the design process. With a little help from Giphy, we are taking you through the many steps and accompanying emotions we experienced when designing our second collection of neckties.

Welcome into our world :)
