If you’re looking to learn about how to wear belts in a trendier style, knotting your simple belts is the key. Just remember that you have to opt for several sizes larger than you actually need, so there’s room for the actual tying. Leather belts in slimmer styles are easier to knot compared to wider ones. Just complement the color of your outfit like wearing a black leather belt with a red dress, a brown leather belt with green dress, or even a metallic silver belt with white outfit that looks more complementing and coordinating.

  1. Opt for a slim belt for adding some polish to your outfit.

Belt sometimes makes a statement, but they can also add some elegant touches without overshadowing your outfit. To make your monochrome or all-white outfit elegant and polished, you may think of wearing a matching color of a belt with your clutch bag like Kristina Bazan did. Adding a great waist definition on your shift dress with a waist-cinching belt is a stylish idea too. If you feel your top piece and bottom piece creates a high contrast, you may wear a low-contrast belt to create the perfect shifting of colors like Mary Orton did with her olive top and white skirt.
