You can wear it to hold your pants up while wearing a fashion belt over and works like a charm. Going through airports is a cinch as the belt has no metal, holds your pants up and almost disappears under your top. I've seen the Invisibalet in person and don't like the stiffness of it nor the thickness...the isabelt is much thinner...more elastic, has two adjusters so it's very adjustable...definately the better choice for solving fashion issues you mentioned above. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84876 Sat, 08 Aug 2009 04:36:42 +0000 Maya 84876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My advice to you (and Ele) would be to just get everything tailored gradually. You don't have to do it all at once! Maybe take a couple of the pants/jeans you wear the most to the tailor and have them done now, then a month later a couple more, and so on. That way they will fit you PERFECTLY! And meanwhile, you'll have the invisible belt. I dealt with less-than-perfect fitting bottoms for a long time and I cannot tell you how much better it feels to wear ones that fit like a glove! I went through this silly phase where I kept buying new jeans that didn't fit over and over again because I kept getting frustrated. Then one day I just bit the bullet and spent to have them fit perfectly, and I haven't bought a single pair of jeans since! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84838 Sat, 08 Aug 2009 00:12:54 +0000 Hunnytea 84838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so comforted! Thanks guys! And, yes, like Ele, being a MAJOR pear (Australian sizes, 14 or 16 below and 10 or 12 up top) it is a rare and bizarre thing when I find pants that fit like a glove with the need of no belt. So Maya, although I'd love to have them all taken in to wear them without the need of a belt, I'd be broke! =0) The invisible belt is a great idea! Maybe getting a very sleek belt will be more economical though? Mmmmm... next shopping mission I think! Thanks again guys! Feel 'normal' now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84669 Fri, 07 Aug 2009 07:59:38 +0000 Ele 84669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha, I have the exact same issue! I feel so silly wearing two belts at once, like I'm "cheating" or something. As a pear, I have pretty much NEVER had a pair of pants or jeans fit well without a belt, and it would be financially impossible for me to have the waists on ALL my pants taken in. </p> <p>I really like the idea of the invisibelt, but I probably won't be buying one. Like LOP, I just use my sleekest, most unobtrusive belt when I'm wearing a longer shirt and waist-belting it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84661 Fri, 07 Aug 2009 04:44:50 +0000 LoP 84661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a special belt for this purpose. A bit similar to the invisible belt bella mentioned (genius idea BTW!), but mine is just a sleek leather belt with a flat buckle. I also have a few elastic belts that work with skirts, but not with pants if you'd like to be able to sit without thinking how your back is holding up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84552 Thu, 06 Aug 2009 17:14:35 +0000 Melody 84552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Bella! Go with the Invisibelt! I've been looking at one because I hate how belts look lumpy under some long tops &#38; sweaters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84506 Thu, 06 Aug 2009 12:48:45 +0000 bella 84506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're not alone! Somebody even invented the transparent belt for this purpose:<br /> <a href="http://www.invisibelt.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.invisibelt.com/</a></p> <p>Here is a review:<br /> <a href="http://apcontestsgiveaways.blogspot.com/2009/07/invisibelt-review-and-giveaway.html" rel="nofollow">http://apcontestsgiveaways.blo.....eaway.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84489 Thu, 06 Aug 2009 09:13:16 +0000 Louise 84489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it could work if like macs outfit you only see 1 belt. But it might be more comfortable and give a smoother line if you get the pants taken in so they fit without a belt x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84480 Thu, 06 Aug 2009 07:07:32 +0000 Mac 84480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hah. I just went through airport security. They told me to remove my belt so I did... twice. Once, the regular width belt that keeps my jeans hanging just how i like them. A second time, a gorgeous wide belt that I used to accent my blazer (which was long enough to hide my jeans belt). The security guard looked at me funny and asked, why would anybody need two belts?</p> <p>I saw go for it. If it works with your specific outfit, there's nothing wrong with rocking 2 belts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84479 Thu, 06 Aug 2009 06:57:13 +0000 Maya 84479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If your pants are unwearable without a belt, they probably don't fit properly. Perhaps you need the waist taken in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wearing-two-belts-at-once#post-84478 Thu, 06 Aug 2009 06:32:45 +0000 Hunnytea 84478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a query. I love the high waisted belt look but most of my pants need a belt around them as well to keep them up! So I feel kind of silly, wearing two belts, even though one is for decorative purposes only and my shirts cover the pants belt; so no one is the wiser. Just wondering if there are others who have this same issue? </p>
