I understand why some people might think that Ashley is annoying but I just love her and her videos. At least for me, she really comes across as genuine and down to earth. As a bonus, the information is superb.
I dont mean to be off topic but does someone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my password. I appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
You've no idea how RARE it is to find this type of buckle at shops.
Great info as always( yes I know this video is a few years old. I’m casually late) I love getting a true, honest opinion and I love that Ashley pulls no punches. You’re definitely off with the belt sizing here though. Formal/dress belts are usually around 1 1/4” and casual belts are usually 1 1/2”..A 1 1/2” belt doesn’t fit well through the loops on many dress pants and won’t fit through the loops on some dress pants at all.
I really like your channel you're really sweat and funny and explain everything correctly thank you Ashley.
Wow! I love you so much. Thanks for helping men to be more awesome :)
I really like your way of presentation...you seem like a down to earth & an honest person....pls dont change your style...
Your right! I bought a crap belt 25 years ago and only now has it fallen apart! I can only imagine what durability a high end belt might bring.
A braided navy casual belt is also a great option. You can sharpen up a casual look of a white button down shirt and a blue/light blue chino. Throw on the navy belt with a navy suede loafer. Great summer look.
You forgot to mention the +4 strength +4 stam leather belt.
Ashley, you are so pretty and charming! Love your informative videos.
Keep up the great work!
Great video. Just found LL Beans chino belts and think they’re winners for $50, full grain leather and basic enough as a dress belt.
Thank you Ashley, keep on the good work! Subbed.
Btw, somehow I registered for newsletter from your website but haven't received the confirmation...
Hey Ashley,
Fan from India!!
I had watched all of your essential series
It's very informative for getting well dressed 👍👍
It will be very helpful if you can make a video on shirts and trousers , we as a youngsters can sport everyday in office...as Suit is very limited to occasional events...
Ashley,
You are awesome. I love your channel. You have taught me a lot of things. Thank you so much for your advice. How about some Hugo Boss's belts with pin buckles? Not sure I'm clear on that... You know the belts without loops (e.g. HUGO BOSS BLACK BALDWIN LEATHER SQUARE BUCKLE BLACK BELT)? Should we avoid those? Greetings from France
Ashley, you do work magic! Just checked-out Tom’s Instagram and I must say: I much prefer the way you dressed him in this vid compared to his own sense of style! 😂 There’s a reason why models need people dressing them for the runway.
yeah this helped a lot. thanks!
How abut fabric belts ? A video on how to co-ordinate these with an outfit would be nice please :)
I don't know if you're aware, but in your article you recommend that casual belts are 1 3/4 - 2" wide, but none of the casual belts you recommend are in that range. The widest is 1 3/8", which is what you've defined as dress belt range. Does this mean that, for a casual belt, the width of the belt is the less important than texture and finish?
Hi AW. I need to get two new casual belts and in your video you mention keep width somewhere between 1 3/4" and 2". I can only find in 1 1/2"? Suggestions.... Thanks for all the style suggestions... 👍🏻
the douchebag part killed me!! haha, I love your work
Hi Ashley, I wonder if you could elaborate on when it is ok to rollup trousers as in 4:20. Is it always ok when wearing sneakers+jeans? How about with other types of pants? For example I have a couple of Fjäll Räven casual/outdoor pants which come standard extremely long, so people can choose to either roll them up, or cut and adjust. I wonder if those would be good candidates to roll up when wearing sneakers, not just for 20-year olds and/or older men e.g. 40+ like me :) What about rolling them up when wearing other casual shoes, not sneakers?
Also, should the roll up be preferably like yours here, with full break? I have seen roll ups with no break at all, looks a bit childish to me, but I wonder what you suggestions would be, with respect to trouser rollups vs. shoe types, and also brake types
Hi Ashley, the width of belt you recommend in your article from h&m is 1.1 inch (I recently bought the exact same belt). So that's an okay width right?
I love a larger buckle for casual with jeans and boots
I like a canvas striped belt in the summer when wearing shorts, it says fun and hip,
what do you think?
Hi Ashley,
How do you feel about gold on belts instead of silver? Can I mix and match say for instance I have a silver dress belt but I have a gold watch?(vice versa) or should I stick to all silver/ all gold?
Hi Ashley, how about for an example Louis Vuitton neogram 30mm belt? Is that okay to wear cause I bought that one before I watch this video grrrrr
What's your opinion on belts with buckles like LV and Hermes?
4:35 "I work with a crap ton of belts in my job every single day."
...
Lmao
Awesome video once again. Does it matter if the casual brown belt is slightly lighter or darker than brown leather shoes or chukka boots? I'm assuming as so long as the belt and shoes are in the same family colour, it doesn't matter so much when going casual.
+Ashley Weston Thanks Ashley.
Can you do a video on dark jean jackets
Thanks for the tips. When would you recommend NOT wearing a belt (besides the obvious "when you're wearing swim trunks," when wearing suspenders, etc.)?
Ahhh, I can dig that. Thanks for the advice. I'm sure I'll be coming back for your answers. Really loving your channel.
Good advice as usual + you're a cutie = good video.
What's your take on ratchet belts (like slidebelts.com, ansonbelt.com, etc.)? I like my Ansons. They have some nice leather (dress) options compared to the others.
Ashley, I've got a question about matching leather belts with the wide variety of leather shoes colours. As far as I know, lathers should match... so if I'm wearing, say burgundy or tan leather shoes, shouldn't I also wear a belt matching those colours? Thanks!
Thanks a lot, love your videos!
are 1 inch belts okay or are they too thin? because those are the only dress belts I see in Zara, h&m and uniqlo
Which belt do i choose for a white sneaker ?
can someone explain what am i suppose to wear with white leather sneakers? black leather?
Haha I hear ya...understand. But as we all know style is subjective. Anyway, That's actually a reason I like the Anson. They have a buckle that looks traditional but with a cleaner look.
do you not like gold buckles and if so why?
and when do I wear my Hermes belt ?
i clicked like before i even started!
Thanks Ashley! In your article you mention that dress belts should stay close to 1.5" but your suggested dress belts are 1.25" and your suggested casual belts are 1.375". Is it safe to assume that 1.5" will work for either dress or casual belts?
+Ashley Weston thanks Ashley. I ask because I'm interested in trying those new Anson hole-less belts (are you familiar with them?) and they come in 1.25" or 1.5" widths. Given my mostly business casual attire (chinos, slacks, and slim jeans) and the occasional suit, I'm actually thinking the 1.25" might better suit my needs. Thoughts?
Good to know! Yea I'm intrigued by the concept-obviously addressing a consumer need for better fit-but the aesthetics leave something to be desired. I've seen similar products with more traditional looking belt buckles but can't attest to their quality. Even Anson's "traditional" style is missing the middle prong that so strongly communicates "belt". I know better than to even look at the square "douchebag" buckle (as you've so hilariously-and accurately coined). Thanks for your thoughts.
And you suggest a 1 3/4 to 2 inches width for a casual belt but that looks extremely wide to me and this is coming from someone who likes wide belts with jeans .
Isn't 1.5" too wide? The belt in the supporting pic looks much narrow.
What about black buckle?
How do you feel about braces?
I love you, simply love you..
Brooks Brothers? Automatic thumbs up and subscribe from me!
No tan belt?
Thank you for all your videos.
What's your opinion on simple, solid belt buckles with suits like the one in this link:
www.amazon.com/dp/B017QPJ1QA/ref=twister_B00XNEVJ6O?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Do dress belts always have to be open buckle or is solid buckle ok?
I try to match my belt color with my shoe color. The one caveat is to avoid white belts.
Is the gray crew neck sweater too big for him?
Do a celebrity style video for Tom Cruise from Top Gun
are reversible belt okay? Ive seen one black and brown
i thought you say a v neck sweatshirt is better when dressing with dress shirts...?
+Ashley Weston ty :)
You are probably not aware that none of the casual belts you recommend fit your width standard of over 1.5”. In fact, none of them are wide enough to be even 1.5”, what you say is the width for a dress belt.
You say that a formal belt’s width should be close to 1 1/2 inches but the formal belt on your model looks more like 1 1/4 inches.. I think 1 1/2 is pretty wide to be considered formal imo. Again . Your formal belts on your model look smaller than 1 1/2 . Did you get the measurements wrong?
Orlando Cruz no she doesn’t, less than 1 1/5 “ (1.2) doesn’t look good on men above 5,8
Between 1 1/5” and 1 1/2” is a dress belt, more than that is casual
Belts wider than 1 1/2 " will not fit in quite many jeans / casual pants, so those are not universally casual or practical in that respect
I have to disagree a little bit about her dress belts. A good leather belt with a tasteful belt buckle is totally awesome! It makes the outfit look younger and hip, but not boyish.
She’s not giving us much options yet they can wear whatever they want. That sucks. I like my casual belt I wear with boots to make a statement. You barely see the buckle in her casual pick and looks dressy to me.
Haha, is this the guy from Silicon Valley?!
Guys don't be that that guy! EVER!
I personally use ratchet belts that way I don't have to worry about the holes getting stretched out
always spot-on & funny, except daniel wellington watch.
The model is so hot.
*THIS GUY FUCKS!* Auto thumbs up to Silicon Valley reference and subbed
No belt last for decades if it's regularly worn. That's ridiculous.
So anything smaller than 1 1/2 inches wide would look like a woman’s belt❓I mean there are tons of premium belts smaller than 1 1/2 inches which have been worn for ever but now it you’re ssying that you shouldn’t wear it? What are men supposed to do with all those belts❓
WWE belts lol
Lost me at daniel wellington... Not saying you need to wear expensive watches, but there are plenty of real inexpensive high quality watches with great history.
You can speak Spanish
Cough, cough. Daniel Wellington watch?! Well that ruined it.
