    So helpful. I'd love to see a part 2 on how to wear belts for different body types and styling goals. Belts don't seem to be my friend. They draw attention to the fact that I have a short torso and thick waist. Petite vs. tall, athletic vs hourglass figures, high rise vs lower rise pants, etc.

    An important tip to add is the importance of purchasing a belt hole punch. It provides versatility to belts you may need to add holes to in order to extend the fit and wearability of your belt wardrobe.

      Good point. I also use mine to make more holes on a purse strap since I'm short.

    I find accessorizing to be the hardest part of styling an outfit! Belts, bags, jewelry. Thank you for this video. I hope you will do more of these types of videos in the future. So helpful!

    Nice tips. I have to tell you your voice reminds me of an unintentional ASMR video. It's very relaxing to listen to. Will be listening to more of your videos. 😊 😊 😊😊😊

    These are very interesting tips, Audrey! We don't hear much about belts and how to style them, so this is very helpful. I'd never heard of matching the width of your belt to your hemline but this totally makes sense. And thank you for calling faux leather what it is, instead of the oxymoron "vegan leather". 🙄😄

    Matching your belt to your bottom half will visually lengthen your legs. Conversely, matching it to your top will lengthen your torso. Also, at age 70 I can say that a collection of belts is a worthwhile investment. Just look after the leather and the metalware, and they will last as long as you (and beyond) 😁

    I often want to wear a belt, but they seem to never look good on me. I have an apple body shape. Can you show us tips for selecting and accessorizing with belt styles for different body shapes?

    Hello, Thank you for the good tips. I began buying a few belts one year ago so this is real helpful.

  • @lu_re7198

    Thank you for recommending some good belts. It’s hard to find nice leather belts, if you generally avoid designer logos. And the faux leather (plastic 🚯) belts I’ve tried have all cracked w/in a year. FYI, MaxMara makes nice leather goods w/out logos.

    Great tips Audrey! I absolutely loved the look of the cream belt with the monotone outfit, I’ll be replicating that!

    Now that I have stopped coloring my hair I find that I prefer wearing silver jewelry. Recently I went through all my belts and donated all with gold buckles. Since then I have been replacing my belts with silver hardware so everything is seamless now.

      @user-lp3he2cy4u Před 14 dny +2

      Loewe, Louis Vuitton and Hermès are the best, in my opinion. I chose one from each in different colours/hardware so I could keep them forever. I wear them almost every day, and there is very little wear and tear (unnoticeable, really). If a belt is something you plan to wear and keep for a long time, save up and purchase a good quality one from a designer who puts care into the materials and colour tones of the strap and hardware.

    Audrey, fascinating how you can so effectively describe the science of belts. Always fun to watch how you tie it all together! Your ability is remarkable and think I've said before you could easily sell swamp land. Think book narration would also be awesome for your voice. So interested - do you write a script for you video? Never knew I could learn about belts! Thank you. Pete

    I mainly wear belts with dresses. I find it difficult to choose how high on the waist and how thick the belt should be.

    I often have trouble finding belts that fit me, since I’m particularly petite. Furthermore I don’t know exactly how to make belts interesting when I’m wearing a lot of dark jeans, it just feels disconnected from my current wardrobe, but I’m sure there’s some way to manage it.

  • @dinaramadan3416

    What to do for an evening dress that has a waist tie. How to tie these? Can a tailor use the material and change the waist tie to a belt with a buckle? Or what design.

    At 2:29 I see wonderfully fit pants length-wise ❤❤ I want to learn to pick such length flawlessly.. though I suppose, it might not work for wide hips, right?

    Im debating, if i should buy a camel/tan belt. But im not sure if i need it, because i have a shoulder bag and some loafers in that color, so i think i can wear those with my black belt, but what if i want to wear my black shoes, it would be nice to have the belt to go with the bag😂 help

    Classic belt sizing involves wearing the belt at the middle hole, not at the very end as shown on Audrey. It looks a bit off balance, imho.
