All About Belts

[impossibleprincess]

Thanks softie-was waiting for you to reply so thought you may have an idea! I tried all the thrift stores down my road, the one on the Kings Road and Steinberg & Tolkien, that vintage store-nothing there. I'm going to try Portobello and Notting Hill later.

..Although I did find a pair of cowboy boots on the Kings Road for £30 which I'm gonna pick up.

I saw it in the nieman marcus catalog, and I think on neimanmarcus.com. I am talking about the one on Paris BTW, I dont know anything about the Ashlee one. The Paris one is leather with swarovski crystals. I believe it is like $385.


edit:
here is the link from NM. http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/...Id=prod12460232

ohh thanks damn the one ashlee has is the one i really want i was thinking the belt might be from vannessa bruno since she designed those totes at shopintution

i think you could MAKE it from stretchy sequin ribbon (like what cheerleaders do for wristbands, headbands... ect.)

you can get it at any fabric store. or Wal-Mart

Out of curiosity how big is a one carat, two carat etc diamond? Is there anywhere online that explains it? I'm off to ask Jeeves but I thought I'd try here as well.

Yea... definitely make it... all you need is a clasp, which you can pick up online... or at a findings store if you have one near you.. plus you can make it as long as you want.. and with whatever color you want... and it'll be cheap.

I love sequins... remind me of my old dance costumes.

[vintage_princess]

That belt is by Sonia Rykiel. Maybe the top that Ashlee is wearing is by Sonia as well, because another top I saw has that exact same green sequin belt sewn onto it.

i am sure that you can find an elastic sequined band at a local fabric store... a trim store... or even at a dance costume store.

that belt looks like part of a tap dance uniform.

Belt help: what do you think?

hi everyone! I'm beginning to add funky and girly pieces to my quite-athletic and functional wardrobe and I do appreciate fashion advice or coddling along this journey. I found this amazing belt on ebay. What do you think: too over the top? Or doable? Do you think it would work as well overtop jeans as well as skirts and long t-shirts/tank tops?
thanks!

ps. I like the look of the moroccan style leather belts, but I'm worried that they'll be overdone before long. I want something that I can wear for a little while at least. Feel free to post pics of belt staples, particularly of the low-slung style, to help me out.
