The Smart & the Pretty

What accessories you can live without? In my case, earrings are not my must-haves (haven’t been wearing them for years). I know, shame on me because I got my ears pierced when I was nine. ;-P Instead I have a weakness for beautifully made belts.

The pretty vernice bow waist belt is something I had my eyes on since last year, I like the fact that it can wonderfully turn a plain outfit into something special, feminine but not girly.

Having made a resolution to buy more classics, I consider another smart reversible belt justified. ;-) It complements my other belts perfectly coz each of them is unique in its own way. The two reversible belts are in Iris (Swift)/Rubis (Epsom) and Gold (Togo)/Black (Box) while the Rafale is in Etoupe (Clémence). It’s nice to have three belts in five different colors and leather types, enough to mix & match with different outfits.

    Thank you for posting these. Iris/Rubis combination is stunning! Wow, I would’ve never thought of buying such bright colors but it works. I’d love to see how you’d wear the belt. I’m allergic to ALL earrings so I indulge in belts and necklaces instead :P

    I’ve never had a reversible belt but could imagine how pleasantly confused people would be if they turn around for a second and somehow your outfit is changed but it’s hard to tell how exactly, haha

    All these belts are lovely. I like the idea of the reversible belt very much, but I’m not that fond of the H buckle.

    CCC, you are very welcome! I’ll post some outfit pictures next time~~

    jibjab, what a fun idea! I’ve never thought of doing this before, damn it. Will definitely give a try! haha

    Elysium, I wish they would do a more abstract and artistic H buckle which, at the first glance, can’t be recognized what it is actually meant to be. ;-)

    I’m fond of H leather goods. A reversible belt/bracelet with 2 different colors to play with brings so much fun and satisfaction.

    Btw have you had any luck finding out on the oval H buckle pic I showed a while back ago? ;)

    It’s funny I’m searching colorful belts to brighten my outfits.
    Having them in different leathers types is great to create style. I do absolutely agress
