After a long stint through a stormy and snowy winter, its about time to liven up the wardrobe in anticipation of a balmy, beautiful spring. When all the main stay pieces have been found, the suit, sport coat, shirts, etc., then it's time to get things figured out around the belt.
More specifically, the ribbon belt, the quintessential collegiate accessory that shows off some true colors while holding up those chinos of yours. Similar to the effect of using a tie as a belt, there will be plenty of attention focused on the top-bottom transition, so its essential that the colors complement or contrast those pieces in some way. Playing off of the cool tones of an outfit with a predominantly red or yellow belt or creating a buff between hot and cold with a black and white belt. The options are only limited to what designers have made, but luckily, any Americana fashion house will have plenty to choose from. Happy hunting!
Check in tomorrow for a fashion piece that deserves your consideration and next Wednesday for another installment of Wardrobe Essential!
