Ascot or Cravat - yes or no?

[bowtielover]

Cravats work sometimes with formalwear and can look nice when done right. I have no immediate hatred of ascots but I find on most men they create an apperance of arrogance, with it really exist or not.

Yes, the pocket square matches the ascot
Yes, too much of the ascot was exposed.
But, I liked the look and I had fun.

The key is to simply be comfortable, and not take yourself too seriously.
I mean, look at the total crap most people wear, bless their hearts.

(I was told, in the South you can say anything you want about anyone, as long as you end it with " bless their heart".)

Good to show some wit and individuality!! Actually, the outfit is quite smart.

Both are nice but I like the blue one better. As long as you are comfortable, who cares?
...and yes, I am seeing more guys wearing ascots/cravats these days. Good news!

But realistically, it does take a lot of panache to pull this off.

Notwithstanding that, I'm still forging ahead.
