Green Suede Belt

Posted on 20:41 by kumar
If you're doing a little belt tightening these days, I know what you mean: literally. I found this green suede Simon Chang belt at my local thrift shop for .99 cents. Love it! Only thing is, the belt goes through the loops on either side of the circle and doesn't attach in any way to the other side of the belt by way of buckle or snap - meaning both ends pop out of the loops if I bend over, breathe, sit down, etc (doesn't help that when done up, it's 27 inches - my exact waist size!). So while others are penny pinching, I'm getting my waist pinched by my spanky new fashion belt. Mmm, effective way to ensure my waist stays the same size, come to think of it.
