Ask Angie: menswear question

marianne

Angie, it's another clueless-about-men's-clothes question from me. I'll have some shopping time this week and I would like to get my dh a new belt among other things - something simple that could function in both smart casual and dressier outfits. I checked the Nordies site, and the price range is quite big - not that I am ready to shell out for a Ferragamo belt, but I was just wondering if it makes a difference. I was thinking of something like this:

Do you have any flop-proof favorites? And should I wait until the half-yearly sale?
Thank you!

The Cole Haan belt is great, Marianne. BR belts are fine too. It’s not quite refined enough for a suit belt though. Were you thinking of putting that fire out as well?

*sigh* Suit is a whole different story... I think he may have a dressy belt somewhere. We actually need to go suit shopping but will probably put it off till NAS. I just wanted to get something for daily use because his favorite belt is falling apart. If you say that would work, that's great!
Should I try looking for a belt that can work with both jeans AND suit? Is that possible at all?
