A clip assembly to fasten a looped item to a necktie comprising:
- a main body, where the main body is comprised of two portions, a first portion and a second portion, where the first portion and the second portion engage a knot of the necktie;
- a hinge pivotably securing the first portion and the second portion, where the hinge pivotably moves the first portion and the second portion between a first position, and a second position;
- a securing portion affixed to the main body, where the securing portion fastens the looped item against a knot of the necktie;
- a central portion comprising the first portion, where the central portion extends between an upper end and a lower end;
- and
- a coupling member comprising the second portion, where the coupling member extends between a top end and a bottom end.
A method of use for a clip assembly to secure a looped item to a knot of a necktie comprising the steps of:
- positioning a main body of the clip assembly against the knot, where the main body includes a first portion and a second portion;
- coupling the clip assembly to the knot by positioning the first portion against a backside of the knot, and engaging the second portion within the knot;
- threading the necktie through a looped item;
- sliding the looped item along an elongated portion of the neck tie to meet the knot;
- inserting the looped item within the clip assembly in an open position, where the open position positions the first portion away from the second portion;
- positioning a securing portion of the clip assembly against the looped item;
- and
- engaging the securing portion of the clip assembly against a band of the looped item where the securing portion prevents the looped item from sliding off the knot.

- a hinge pivotably securing the first portion and the second portion, where the hinge moves the first portion and the second portion between a first position, and a second position;
- where the first position separates the first portion from the second portion to receive the knot of the necktie, and
