Donate the belt and try to find something comparable.&nbsp; Thrift or consignment shops can be excellent sources for belts at a wide range of price points.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-too-short-will-these-styles-still-work-to-wear-it#post-2087908 Thu, 26 Dec 2019 16:51:57 +0000 rachylou 2087908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it’s more a reconstruction. Like you take it to your shoe shop. There are also ‘kilt extenders’ - a buckle on extender. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-too-short-will-these-styles-still-work-to-wear-it#post-2087904 Thu, 26 Dec 2019 16:39:23 +0000 Anonymous 2087904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am following this thread with interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-too-short-will-these-styles-still-work-to-wear-it#post-2087902 Thu, 26 Dec 2019 16:33:01 +0000 Anonymous 2087902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@rachylou That product looks like it only works for belts with interchangeable buckles which mine is not.</p> <p>I did try it with higher waisted jeans and with pants but it’s just slightly too small still. I appreciate the feedback but I’ll probably have to donate it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-too-short-will-these-styles-still-work-to-wear-it#post-2087820 Thu, 26 Dec 2019 01:40:05 +0000 Sal 2087820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Try it at your waist or with non denim pants that are thinner. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-too-short-will-these-styles-still-work-to-wear-it#post-2087817 Thu, 26 Dec 2019 01:18:55 +0000 Gigi 2087817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Anna. It's tough to work with a belt that is too short, unless you want to wear it with higher-rise bottoms, which will hit at a smaller part of your waist (or maybe it would work over a dress if you put the belt at your waist rather than your hips). Sorry! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-too-short-will-these-styles-still-work-to-wear-it#post-2087801 Wed, 25 Dec 2019 23:38:16 +0000 nemosmom 2087801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I appreciate the creativity, but don’t think any of them work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-too-short-will-these-styles-still-work-to-wear-it#post-2087799 Wed, 25 Dec 2019 23:14:27 +0000 annagybe 2087799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Honestly I don’t think it’s salvageable.<br /> It looks just like a temporary fix, as in emergent, not intentional. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-too-short-will-these-styles-still-work-to-wear-it#post-2087798 Wed, 25 Dec 2019 23:13:59 +0000 rachylou 2087798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Belt or kilt extender, under $20... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/belt-too-short-will-these-styles-still-work-to-wear-it#post-2087796 Wed, 25 Dec 2019 23:02:00 +0000 Anonymous 2087796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was trying to think of a way to salvage an old belt that no longer fit being too short. I had these three style ideas, I would like feedback if any of them work. </p> <p>1- I wore the buckle behind me and so the belt strap fills in the entire front, I can do a front tuck only to hide the back.<br /> 2- I’m wearing the belt how it fits, it’s unbuckled. Doing a front tuck so only the buckle and small amount of strap show.<br /> 3- I fastened a silver necklace chain through the buckle and loop hole so it ties the belt and strap tighter giving the illusion it’s buckled. </p> <p>If you have any other ideas please share them! </p>
