They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but we’d like to make a case for belts. They are a great way to spice up a plain outfit, a tool to flatter the figure, and obviously a device to give baggy pants new life! Have you been converted yet? The pictures below might help you make up your mind.
Here’s an amazing belt we found on the BSOUP blog. Although this bejeweled belt from Anthropologie is no longer available, it’s easy to recreate with some jewels and ribbon from M&J Trimming!
Veronika, formerly of Girl and Closet, used this belt to cinch the waist of her dress and pull the look together. We love that bold closure, and check out that background scenery! Beautiful.
Imagine rocking this skinny J. Crew belt with a crisp white shirt and slim camel trousers. It’s simple and sophisticated, but the color will wake up any outfit!
This belt looks just like a Ouija board. It’s pretty cool, and also a little creepy. Perfect for Halloween!
We are loving this Alexander McQueen double buckle belt! The embossed leather is amazing, and we are particularly fond of the Western-style buckles. Why? You’ll just have to tune in to find out!
I LOOOOOVE Alexander McQueen’s belt, too! 🙂 I’d love to make my own DIY bejewelled belt. Thanks for the idea!
