Thanks for all the help!
Jill although your tie does look wonderful Im afraid its out of my price range. Perhaps when I get out of school I will be able to afford it. Unless i find something else im going to decide b/t RL and the one on STP

I was actually getting ready to suggest this one http://www.carlofranco.com/webstore/...ages/ties/S111 . One of my favourites but from what you typed up there it is out of your range. Check Charles Tyrwhitt, they have a sale going on right now. Plus, if you feel a little braver, there is always eBay... Edit: Just remembered: The Saks Off Fifth here in Tucson has a good number of lilac coloured ties. Check your local Off Fifth for good deals.

I can vouch for the CF tie numbered T30. I have one and it is superb!

P.s. T30 has a nice colour to it.

skalogre: I'm really not into floral patterns much. I like the more abstract ones - as in T30. So there!
