X Factor Tie Watch - Live Show 6 Weekend

Lloyd Daniels may have been forced to sing-off on tonight's The X Factor results show, but he was still the weekend's winner in our eyes.

Yes, you've guessed it the Welsh singer wore a tie for his performance. A skinny tie in fact. You may also have been mesmerised by Lloyd's red and black checked shirt. It certainly caught our eye as not only do we think it was one heck of a shirt... we also have the black and red checked skinny tie and cap to match!

See you next week for more exciting X-Factor tie news.

X Factor Tie Watch - Live Show 5

Olly Murs clearly took heed of our advice from last week and wore a tie for tonight's live show. Murs donned a black skinny tie as he performed the old classic 'Twist and Shout'.

It was a skinny tie night as host Dermot O'Leary and Irish judge Louis Walsh watched on with thin ties around their necks. We thought Louis looked particularly suave in a super skinny tie.

The X Factor - Louis Walsh Smartens His Act Up For Results Night

Louis Walsh has clearly been reading the Ties Planet blog. It seems more than plausible to us that the Irishman read our post last night and understood our disappointment at Dermot O'Leary being the only person to wear a tie for Saturday's show.

Louis wore a skinny tie for tonight's results show. A sure fire sign that our blog does make a difference to men's style!

It wasn't such a smart night for young singer Rachel Adedeji as she had to leave show. Rachel received the fewest public votes despite receiving positive feedback from the judges during Live Show 4.

We'll be back next week to see how many ties are on show in Live Show 5!

X Factor Tie Watch - Live Show 4

Only presenter Dermot O'Leary came out of the fourth live show of X Factor 2009 with any credit this evening. The Ties Planet team were sad to see O'Leary was the only person who saw it appropriate to dress up and wear a tie for the blockbuster show.

Dermot looked dapper as always in a plain skinny tie. Should you want to look equally smart, Tiesplanet.com has a huge range of skinny and narrow ties for you to choose from.

Oh, and just a quick word for Olly Murs... please keep the chest hair out of sight next week! It's not like you don't have plenty of ties to choose from at Tiesplanet.com!
