Belts and Buckles: Bling for Your Waistline
These days, it seems like belts are doing a whole lot more than holding up pants. Whether they’re chunky chains slung around the hips or basic black with a fabulous buckle worn inches above the waistline, belts are everywhere. And, they’re certainly more about fashion than function.
From the red carpet to your local super market, belts are back with a bang. Here are a few reasons why they’re everywhere:
Instant Figure. Wearing a belt with a dress, over a sweater or with a skirt can help you create the illusion of an hour glass figure by drawing attention to the smallest part of your body.
Great Curves. Wearing a simple, thin belt directly below the bust can give you a stylish empire waistline and give you instant curves.
Fashion that Pops. Not feeling your plain Jane outfit? Just add a brightly colored or metallic belt and transform your look with a splash of fashion-forward pizzazz.
Why not? Belts are a fun, easy way to amp up your wardrobe. Instead of dropping bundles of cash on a new outfit, get a great new belt and transform your look instantly.
I found this video on you tube that might give you a couple of cute ways to wear belts. They drop a few designers names as examples, but you certainly don’t have to spend tons of money to create the looks they suggest.
