When All Else Fails... Put a Belt on It

Right now, in theory, the Spring fashion wardrobe would be in full effect. However with this cold start to April, I have spent very little time outside of my apartment without being under the protective cover of my peacoat. Not to mention the cold winds of the Great Recession.

The quick fix for this Almost-Spring fashion conundrum: the belt.

This isn't the belt your granddad wore to keep his trousers up, but a belt as an accessory, worn on the natural waist -- the narrowest part of your body.

Use the belt to accentuate a great waistline or give the illusion of longer gams. It can be as feminine or as punk as you desire. Plus the belt doesn't have to break your piggy bank. Check your local thrift, consignment or vintage shop for great options under $20.
