Germs

I'm a sucker for "themed" items; I can't help it. Slap a Rutgers University logo on anything and I'm all over it. Same goes for anything with paw prints, my initials, and anything nautical or ocean related (my poor credit cards), so when I saw these ties, I was immediately sad that I don't have any advanced degrees in microbiology or dentistry. How cute would these be at the wedding of doctors, biologists, vets, dentists, and other scientific-ly minded folks????

Dental Plaque

Cholera

SARS

Yes, you saw correctly... 100% silk ties with patterns based on actual scientific images. There are a ton of designs, ranging from the standard flu virus to pandemics like mad cow and avian flu. Should you feel inspired, head on over to Infectious Awareables to purchase your own infectious disease themed tie!

Sadly, we will not be purchasing any of these ties for our groomsmen (as both mine and FH's degrees are in sport management), but this might be in store for one of my favorite microbiologist bridesmaids!
