Black Belt
When it comes to belts, they certainly have other purposes besides just holding up a pair of Levis. They’re an excellent way to add a bit of edge to an outfit, either with a low slung, braided belt in the Summer or a more refined, waist-cinching option in the cooler months. Despite the plethora of candy colored choices available now, I like the idea of finding black belts that stand out simply because of their intricate detailing.
Linea Pelle’s Leather 2 1/2″ Contour Waist Belt is simple in its construction with an over sized buckle, but it’s the antiqued gold hardware that give it that hand-me-down feel. I love that it’s thick, so that when thrown over a white collared shirt, it adds a substantial piece of hardware that also creates a slimming silhouette.
I’m not usually one for obvious labels on clothing and accessories, but the double C’s of this Chloe Heloise Belt has won my affection. I even like the fact that the size can’t be adjusted since it gives the illusion that the belt is custom-fit. It would be perfect for tempering a billowy blouse in a paisley print.
I’m crazy about this Studded Double Wrap Leather Belt since it combines two of my current obsessions: studs and layering. As a proud owner of a wrap belt, which I wore several days ago here, they truly add an entirely different dimension to an outfit. I like the stud detailing on this one that isn’t overkill thanks to its diminutive width.

ha that first belt looks fantastic. wider belts do work better for people like me – longer upper body with slightly less ‘leggy’ legs. As tragic as it may sound, belts do play a vital role in making this seemingly imperfect proportion somewhat more proportionate. Does it make sense?
i agree with you, the bright colored belts can be nice (few and far between) but there is just something wonderful about a classic black belt! love your picks
i am loving that double layered studded belt! its like a fresh and new update of the carrie belt from s&c!
oh i’ve been looking for a double wrap belt but have had a super hard time finding one!! love the double wrap studded one!
i’ve never been one for belts, but these are pretty cool — thanks!
and, p.s., glad you enjoyed my tidbits.
enjoy your weekend, Emily! xo
I love that Chloe belt, and I’m not usually one for screaming labels either. But it’s just so elegant.
Hi there-I love belts and have to really start wearing them more regularly! the chloe one is divine! have a great weekend!
That Chloe belt is darling. And not overdone with the branding either. Loves it!
I love the Chloe one, But the studded double wrap belt is a must have …i need one ASAP. Great Post!
lovely black belts, and I agree with you on the chloe. But I want the studded double wrap!
Love the studded ones! Just picked up two myself.
I would love love love to be invited to the gilt groupe!! This was my first time finding your blog and it’s heaven!
love the first belt. black and brassy-gold go together so well. in fact, that is what my outfit consists of today. all black with brass accessories.
I don’t like obvious labels too much either but Chloe did it tastefully. how could they do anything wrong though, really. Love the studded belt too but really would rather bedazzle one of my own before forking out $145. Happy Friday!
I really love the Chloé one! is fantastic, looks great! do you know how much is it?
ooooo…I’ll take the studded belt please and that link you mentioned (consider yourself linked too my dear).
I love double C’s. And all thinks studded too. I am too thick for such a thin belt though. boo.
The snap on that Chloe belt is amazing!
Chloe belt is amazing!
I don’t even WEAR belts, and I want all those. Especially the Chloé.
i don’t own that many belts. I only have one in my collection.
I love belts! Those are all so beautiful! My favorite is the Chloe one!
That belt is so thin! I really like it though, I’ve been trying to decide if I should get a wrap around belt or not.
I love all those belts because they have a classic shape, but are so much more interesting than a plan ol’ leather strap.
i do love this chloé, I did a post about him a time ago!
a kiss!!!
ooh awesome belts
im in the market for a good one
The last one, the layered belt witht the studs is simply fab.
I am dying for that Linea Pelle one but it’s over $200 so I’m going to keep my fingers crossed that it will get marked down!
the Chloé belt is my fav
