The Ascot does double duty; it keeps your neck warm and looks chic. It also holds the title for the easiest scarf tie.

Hold the scarf around your neck and tie it into a simple knot at the front.
Spread open the gathers and tuck into your coat or an open neckline. For an updated look, try it untucked.

For an elegant look perfect for the office, try the long tie.

Drape a long scarf around your neck and tie a simple knot in one side of the scarf about half way down the length.
Pull the other side of the scarf through the knot, adjust so it is well positioned, and tighten.
