I'm ashamed to admit that until this year, I didn't believe Stacy and Clinton when they went on about belts being miraculous tools of figure flattery. However, I stand corrected. I am blessed with a small waist, but cursed with large hips, and I don't know where these belts have been all my life.
Though I own only 4, my skinny belts have become a staple over my cardigans and dresses and I can't believe I went 27 years looking all large waisted. There's no turning back now, and I hope to own several of the choices below before fashion trends change once again.
I think my favorite is the studded J. Crew option on the top row, but I'm also wanting that leopard belt to wear this fall.
Are you a belt wearer? If so, what option is your favorite?
I hope everyone has a happy weekend! I'm off to watch Harry Potter tonight with N - can't wait!
I too have recently found belt love. Skinny and wide ones.
ReplyDeleteI love wearing belts! I like the one above the yellow one best! But they are all pretty!
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
Amen, sister. I'm an "athletic" build (read: straight) and I've also only recently discovered belts. What? They give the impression of a small waist and curves? What a fool I've been! Oh well, glad we figured it out eventually :)
ReplyDeleteSo, belts are a new one for me too. they look so great on everyone else, but I thought, no, not for me! My friend with the crazy awesome closet finally convince me to wear one!
ReplyDeleteI have the same exact body type. I discovered the glory of belts about a year ago, and now I belt everything! Well, almost everything. They add so much to an outfit and make me look my true size.
ReplyDeleteI like belts of all widths! Usually I like the thicker version to accent a skirt or a dress. To create shape on an oversized item I like to use skinny belts. Great post and hope you add these picks to your wardrobe!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree! My belt collection is pretty small (one skinny but not wrap around and one wide belt) I need to change this pronto :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
just recently got into the belt trend! i'm loving it a ton. my only problem is it can give me a sweaty mark when outside in the summer. hopefully they'll still be in this fall!
ReplyDeleteI just started wearing belts as accessories this spring. Makes such a huge difference! My favorite belt is the Loft buckle. It can go around a tiny waist or around hips. All-purpose- my favorite! Enjoy Harry Potter- I'm on my way to see it this afternoon!
ReplyDeletei LOVE skinny belts! they can add so much to an outfit! xoxo jillian:: cornflake dreams

ReplyDeletei used to dislike belts but have fallen in love recently. my favorite right now is a skinny yellow one (not too different than the one you have above).
