    &lt;h1&gt;New Selection of Casual &quot;Ascot&quot; Ties &amp;amp; Scarves&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Dear valued customer, you may have noticed that we recently have added a brand new product category of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cheap-neckties.com/ascot-ties.php&quot;&gt;ascot ties&lt;/a&gt;. Most of these designs are classic and elegant and and are well suited for a more casual look. Traditionally the ascot was worn with a tailcoat jacket for formal &quot;daytime attire&quot;. These ascots were typically solid in color or had fine foulard patterns that were only noticeable at a closer look. Ascots with more elaborate patterns and multiple colors were not too common on traditional ascots that were first worn towards the end of the 19th century. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our selection of ascots combine exactly that: More elaborate design patterns and multiple colors. Therefore, they appear less formal but are nevertheless elegant and sophisticated. Also different is the way these ascots are tied. Traditional ascots have to broad ends and are symmetrical in shape. Our ascots on the other hand have one broad side, and one narrow side with a loop. Tying these type opf ascots is also much easier and does not require a tie pin. The illustration below will teach you how easy it is to tie one of our ascots.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

    &lt;h1&gt;Tying The Ascot Tie&lt;/h1&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Neckties come in a wide range of styles and cuts. Besides standard neckties and bow ties, men occasionally choose the ascot for their neck wear. The ascot tie looks like a wider and much shorter type of necktie. Traditionally it is tied much looser, and it is also not worn over the shirt, but tugged inside the collar with the top button unbuttoned. It reminds of a look that is half scarf and half necktie. To learn more on the history of this clothing item, how it got it&#039;s name, and when to wear it, you may also want to read our article titled: &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cheap-neckties.com/blog/wrapper.php?/archives/165-Ascot-Ties.html&quot;&gt;Ascot Ties&lt;/a&gt;&quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Ascot Tie Knot Instructions:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;Lay the tie around your neck with one hand hanging about 3-4 inches lower than the other. The &quot;good side&quot; should be showing at the front.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Wrap the longer end around the other end.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Wrap it all the way around.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Take the tie and loop it through the gap between neck and half-tied ascot.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Place the longer end of the ascot over the shorter end.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Give it some final adjustment, and if this look is preferred, secure the ascot in place with a tie pin.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
