This is my pinterest styling inspiration... I love the rock chick look of this Stockholm style shot (first picture).
There are some gorgeous items out there. But I am very excited about the beautiful {Make it} projects I found.
Mary at Craft Buds has made this lovely Fabric Wrap Belt. Her tutorial makes it sound very easy, so go and check it out. I love the colour she chose, it looks great with that dress!
For a different look, but oh so so cute result, here is the 100layercake ruffled belt. It would look great for a wedding, and would add un-je-ne-sais-quoi to any bland dress.
Finally the must-have of this season (I counted 5 people wearing one during my 10 minute walk to work this morning) - the skinny bow belt. Sarah's tutorial is bang on trend, and gives you easy steps to make your own!
So what is your favourite? I must admit I love my belts to be quite wide.. I do like some ruffles though, it could totally change the look of some of plainer dresses... OOOOhhh so many possibilities!!
Funnily enough I got a couple of belt buckles in a charity shop last week-end.... Love these 3 tutorials, might have to make them all!!!
ReplyDeleteI too love big thick belts for my waist! I think 5 and 7 are my favorites :)

What a fun post!! I tend to like skinnier belts but wide belts looks so cute with a plain dress!
ReplyDeleteI love belts and I use the a lot, especially the obi-style on simple tunics. AS for your selection, my vote goes to: 2, 5 and 9. Thank you for flagging the tutorials!
