Fashion belts are a great way to add a splash of color, accentuate natural curves, bring together an outfit, enjoy a great trend and make your waist look narrower!
This quick guide tells you all you need to know about belt styles, the latest trends, and some handy do's and don'ts on wearing fashion belts!
Skinny belts - sleek and sometimes barely there, skinny belts go with pretty much everything, and because they're subtle and skinny, they won't dominate your outfit. That means you can get away with a belt in really vivid colours (we're talking red or yellow or purple), or sexy snake-print. And don't forget: you can always double-wrap a skinny belt to create more of a visual statement.
Bow belts - these are so beautifully feminine, and can really give that extra 'cute' factor to your outfit. And why not try wearing the bow to one side or at a jaunty angle for an extra original look? Right now, a really big trend are bows in metallic tones.
Obi wrap belts - a Victoria Beckham favourite, obi wrap belts are perfect for the wedding season or the lbd (little black dress).
Low-slung belts - these will draw the eye to your hips, so make sure you're comfortable with emphasising this feature of your body. The beauty of low-slung fashion belts is they'll work with everything from tunics to casual shift dresses, boho skirts and low-rise jeans!
Chain belts - chain is always a popular option, and can help to add some extra spice to even the simplest outfit.
Patent belts - these are the ones with the high-shine finish, and they work well with even the plainest outfit.
Big buckle belts - you don't need to be a cowboy to pull this one off! Fashion belts with big buckles are an ideal way to liven up any pair of trousers and make a statement.
Tie-fastening belts - belts don't have to mean buckles. Multiple tie-fastening with tassels are another great way to tie your belt, and this can work really well with an ethnic or tribal inspired look, and also fits all sizes!
