Belted and curvy

Belts define the waist and can give a woman a curvy look. The truth is what you wrap around your waist can either make you look trim or frumpy. Wearing the right belt is very important to help you look your best. Whether you want to make a fashion statement or add that little extra to a plain or that dull outfit, a belt can help you achieve that. In fact, most times belts add finishing touches to a woman’s outfit. There are several ways to style a belt. It all depends on the look you want to create. Here are tips to guide you.

How to style in belts:
You can opt for a wide belt to give you that dramatic but fashion-forward look by making your waistline look trim. It really looks good on ladies with apple shape.

Skinny belts are also good because they create a smart and elegant appearance especially to your suit. These belts are also great for casual wears because they can give a classy and well-dressed look.

Ladies with lanky bodies with no hips should wear outfits that create volume from the hips down. You can wear a long top and wrap a belt around your waist to make you look chic.

Opt for simple belts in solid colours like red, blue and so on. Also shop for belts in neutral colours like black, beige, white, brown and so on.
To avoid looking too flashy choose belts with minimal embellishments before you start buying the latest styles.
