A Basic Introduction to Men’s and Women’s Belts
There are many different types of belts on the market today. Prices vary depending on the brand name and type of belt you buy and what material it is made from. With the many variations available, it can be confusing when you are trying to choose a belt for yourself. Lets take a look at the many different styles of belts available for men and women today.
Women’s Belts
There are several different types of belts for women. Some are made to be worn on the outside of a shirt or dress; others are made to be worn with jeans. Cowgirl belts and some other styles of belts are more ostentatious while other belts are not particularly noticeable. Some belts are wide and gaudy, featuring rhinestones or stud jewels, others are plain with standard colors.
If you are looking for something suitable for work or when meeting a client, then you would most likely want a belt that is not too flashy or over the top. A plain black belt would most likely be your best option. The Silver Jeans Womens Sketch Basic Black Leather Belt selling for $30 at sheplars.com would be a good choice. Other suitable belts include the Plain Black Webbing Belt sold for under $10 at beltme.co.uk and the Ann Taylor Women’s Black Perfect Skinny Belt for sale at anntaylor.com for $30.
A scarf belt can be great for going out with friends. These come in different colors and are not expensive. They are made in satin, silk or chiffon and cost under $10. These are either plain colored or printed; choose one that matches your outfit well and suits your tastes.
Men’s Belts
Mens belts also come in many designs. You can get WWE belts that are quite flashy. Wal-Mart and Amazon.com both have a selection that includes autographed belts. However, it should be noted that these belts usually are not suitable for day to day use. They are more of a novelty or collectors item that can be showcased in your home if you are a WWE fan.
If you want something suitable for the office, then choose a plain colored black or brown belt. Leather belts are good looking; you can buy one made by Belt Masters at Amazon for only $3. Online retailer Rhinomart sells a large selection of leather belts for $2.60 each. Higher end options include the Guess Silver Plaque Belt selling for a bit under $40 and the Levi’s Men’s Leather Belt selling for $28.
There are also men’s studded belts that are flashy and well suited for a night out on the town. Some good looking options include the Mens Colby Studded Black Leather Belt and the Nocona Mens Studded Leather Belt selling at sheplars.com for $30 and $45, respectively. Higher end brand names, such as the Hugo Boss Studded Black Leather Mens Denim Belt and the Christian Dior Black Leather Stud Detailed Belt, are sure to cost at least over $100.
As you can see, belts can get very pricey depending on what brand and style you are looking for. If you know your size in a specific brand, you can go online and probably find a better deal that in department stores. Don’t limit yourself to only buying from one store. Start your search today to find the right belt to suit your lifestyle.
