look of the day: belts


belts are a dominate accessory for spring. from wide to skinny, this is a trend that looks great on most everyone. create a beautiful hourglass silhouette, update a fuller dress or just to add a pop of color, wearing a belt this spring will make you look modern and fresh.

"belts are huge this season, in all different widths, but must be worn on the true waist to be on trend," says fashion stylist Megan Ross. "worn over a dress, a cardigan, or a blazer, a belt can be incorporated into any trend of the season."

go with a flattering width. A wide belt looks great on longer torsos. If you have a shorter torso, opt for a skinnier one.



















as always, have fun and be fabulous!

My dream is to strut on the street wearing a belt. But for some reason, since I have quite a thick middle, I don't think I could never be able to put on a belt without looking like a cinched sack of potatoes. What do you think?

igigi.com carries some great belts and waist cinchers for women with fuller figures. but if you still find that this trend doesn't suit your figure, you may have to find something that will make you look your best. remember it's about mking yourself look the best no matter what the trends. :)
