Beyoncé Shows off Trend: High Belted Waists

Here singer Beyoncé is in a bit of a controversial ensemble, but one thing I’m definitely loving is her triple-buckled high-waist belt.

Beyoncé here uses this fab accessory to make a corset look for her waist, which appeals to some and not others, but to me, almost any belted look is a good one!

Beyonce and belts

I found some similarly “fab” (if you agree) belts at Shop Frosting .com.

The first is one similar to the diva’s, but in a chocolate woven leather and of course - only two buckles high. It’s tamer, more versatile and has some edge, while it also works for both the western and urban hip looks. Belt by Nikki Jaggs, on sale for $40.

The second is a completely different look. It’s two-toned, ultra chic and also has some thickness to it. That’s what the current belt trend is all about: showing on top of tops, thick and on the natural waist.

We even see a little trick of another way to play with chinching one’s frame: a fitted tee on top, a trendy thick belt, then a full skirt flowing out from the accessory. Di-vine! Belt by Lara Kazan, on sale for $64.

The belt trend is here to stay for a long while, so I say it’s quite safe to invest in a few, even if they’re nice ones. For each trend cycle variation, I’d get a few varieties — cheap & chic, quality, designer - or mix and match … Possibly keep adding each season! Ok ok I like the trend too much, but your enhanced figure will show you why you should too!

Belts: Fit, Flatter and Fabber!

I don’t like the way the belt alters the hemline of the dress, and the way the fabric poofs a bit at the top and under the belt. Some things we just not meant to be belted!

She looks a little uncomfortable, not her typical, fitted (or too fitted in some cases if you know what I’m saying) Beyonce self. She could have definitely pulled that look off with a different dress.

Never mind the belt - that dress looks great!

I’m thinking perhaps the belt would look better on a longer torso?

I’ve said it before; broad belts compliment the lovely feminine form, let s have more. It’s a good opportunity for designers to excercise their creative imaginations.
