Select a style name below to see an example image and instructions:
- Hang the Lariat around your neck with the Centre Piece at the back.
- Simply loop one strand over the other, just as you would start to tie a shoelace, and let the End Pieces hang down.
- You can move the tie higher or lower to change the overall effect.
- The simplest way to wear a Lariat and is suitable for all lengths.
- Place the Centre Piece of the Lariat at the front of your neck.
- Take both End Pieces and wrap the Lariat around the back of your neck, crossing it over, and bringing the End Pieces round to the front.
- Secure the Lariat by looping one strand over the other and let the End Pieces hang down.
- This style is suitable for the medium and long Lariats and is a lovely alternative to the Full Length version.
- To wear the Lariat in a shorter style hold it by the Centre Piece and fold in half, thereby doubling it.
- Wrap it around your neck and place the two End Pieces through the loop created by the fold to secure the Lariat.
- This style is suitable for the medium and long Lariats and is stunning as a chunkier piece.
- Hold one End Piece centrally just below your collarbone.
- Simply wrap the Lariat around your neck, once or twice depending upon the length, then loop one strand over the other to secure it at the front.
- This style is suitable for the medium and long Lariats and is perfect for dressing up any outfit.
