Belts are IN! Put your Belt on Ladies!!

I just read a great article about belts in the WSJ. Since I am a dedicated WSJ reader, I ALWAYS read the fashion section. All kinds of belts are in now. You can wear a corset belt, a loose hanging belt that lays at your hips, a traditional belt to hold your pants up (must for the low-waisted pants), and a metallic chain belt and so on. You can look like Michelle Obama with her high-waisted sweater belt look, or have a belt to squeeze in your tummy as a girdle. Belts have not been in style for way to long. The last time I remember belts being popular was when I was a teen. So, now it is time to bring out your belts. Add a belt to a dress, a sweater, a shirt, pants, well pretty much anything. I have found some wonderful belts at estate and garage sales. I picked up four real Coach Belts for $1 each at a recent rummage sale. I was so excited to see that they were real Coach Belts; I grabbed them and didn't try them on. When I got home, guess what? Three of them were too big! I can't even wear them without them falling down. Oh well, so much for my bargain. They are going to end up on eBay soon. I hope that I can sell them for more than a $1, and then I can recoup my investment! I might even consign them at the local consignments stores @Jane or @greenestreetconsignment. These are two of my favorite stores in Princeton. A must when you come to Princeton, NJ.
