For me they are too narrow, or if wider (1-1 1/2") the seem to be too stiff, too plasticky, or smell funny. I used to buy good belts in the men's department--thanks for reminding me to look there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2203671 Sat, 19 Jun 2021 15:10:30 +0000 kkards 2203671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve got tons of belts “hearted” on Etsy, but I’m loath to pull the tigger because as you say, quality is hard to judge…but as art/craft shows seem to be happening again this summer, maybe you can find something at one of them.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2203623 Sat, 19 Jun 2021 12:52:59 +0000 Tanya 2203623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to suggest going to Macy's in person, as their stores always seem to have quite a selection of belts.&nbsp; Back in the days when everyone wore BF jeans, I have found a good number of my belts there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2203452 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 17:22:06 +0000 cat2 2203452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like Talbots belts, every season they have the same basic and anonymous belts but offer a different colors in addition to black and brown. They are well made. I would check again when Spring gear arrives. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2203450 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 16:41:17 +0000 Janet 2203450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zaeobi, a men’s belt might work for me because I only really belt with slightly lower rises, not at my waist, so my belts tend to be a little larger to accommodate a hip measurement rather than waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2203428 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 16:04:44 +0000 Zaeobi 2203428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, just saw that others have already recommended that, sorry. Let us know if it works though! I suspect men's belts may fit better at the hip than waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2203426 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 16:01:53 +0000 Zaeobi 2203426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm have you tried the menswear section instead? I don't know if it would help though (since I suspect most men aren't wearing stark white accessories)... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2203376 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 13:55:43 +0000 Helena 2203376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Following with interest ... a white belt that I like is a HEWI for me I'm just realizing.

I have had my eye on their belts for years, more for my husband who wears belts daily. I am also in love with many of their bags right now. I have a weakness for embossed leather! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2203239 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 20:55:55 +0000 nemosmom 2203239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve bought a couple of great belts from this Etsy shop:</p> <p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/DesignedInLA" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/shop/DesignedInLA</a></p> <p>They have leather, vegan, metal, sparkles, you name it.

LOL</p> <p>LAR, I would consider another perforated one, but it’s probably not my first preference — that belt dates back to probably 8 or 9 years ago, and my preferences in accessories now are a little simpler with less detailing. </p> <p>Evie, that looks nice — I’ve never heard of the brand and don’t know if it can be acquired in the US but I’ll investigate.</p> <p>It’s a little reassuring to know it’s not just me having a hard time finding this simple item! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2202434 Sun, 13 Jun 2021 23:29:24 +0000 Carla 2202434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Canadian Tire? &nbsp;Bwahahaha! &nbsp;Sorry for the inside joke (Canadian’s will get it.) &nbsp;For some reason, Canadian Tire - a store that is mostly car parts, affordable sports equipment, hunting and fishing kit, homewares, seasonal yard stuff (lawn chairs and Christmas lights), as well as a garden centre -&nbsp;<i>always&nbsp;</i>has a selection of genuine and interesting belts for ridiculously low prices!</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Tire">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Tire</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2202431 Sun, 13 Jun 2021 23:16:06 +0000 LAR101 2202431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Consider whether you prefer the vibe of the perforated white over a solid white belt. </p> <p>Personally, I really love how your current perforated belt works to bring together your whole outfit in the photo.<br /> It’s a bright white classic color which I think is important; And I think the shadows of the holes soften the bright white and if the color of the pants peaks through, it further unites the outfit. </p> <p>Why not audition some perforated ones? It’s something to consider. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2202418 Sun, 13 Jun 2021 21:15:55 +0000 Evie 2202418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just ordered a white leather belt from Brave Leather, a Canadian company. I’ve attached photos of two styles that might fit your criteria. I have purchased from this brand many times over the years and have found their quality to be exceptional. Belts I purchased well over 10 years ago are still going strong. It might be worth checking out. Hope you find what you’re looking for! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2202404 Sun, 13 Jun 2021 20:23:48 +0000 Sal 2202404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need one too! My white belt is very tatty. Very hard to find in a quality leather in a simple style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2202398 Sun, 13 Jun 2021 19:27:59 +0000 kellygirl 2202398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Belts are tough! I’m always on the look out but haven’t sound anything in navy or white that ticks all of my boxes! I can sympathize! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-replacement#post-2202395 Sun, 13 Jun 2021 18:54:41 +0000 Janet 2202395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all,</p> <p>In the summer I find a simple white belt useful as I like to wear my shorts and pants a little on the looser side, and the white plays well with my summer white tops. My very old perforated white belt is now starting to fall apart, and it’s time for a new one. Example of how I wear it in pic 1, I had a jacket on most of the day too.</p> <p>I’ve been keeping an eye out but there doesn’t seem to be much out there with my specs:</p> <p>- Simple in style, and not too thin or thick — I think my old one is 1.5”<br /> - Silver-toned buckle in a simple style — nothing bulky or overly wide and no logos.<br /> - Leather that is nice quality and not stiff — I do not care for cheap stiff belts with rough edges. But I don’t want to spend a ton. </p> <p>It figures that the best one I’ve seen so far is a Dries Van Noten and of course is priced accordingly! (Pic 2)</p> <p>I’ve looked on Etsy but the quality seems such a crapshoot there. </p> <p>Any suggestions? </p>
