You'd probably have to change your shoes, though. </p> <p>To keep things on the warm side - try a cognac cheetah. Snake skin will work well too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657806 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 03:04:12 +0000 ManidipaM 657806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm going to be an outlier and vote green! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657754 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 01:09:42 +0000 Aida 657754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote a slim animal print (leo, zebra, snake...) or sparkly bronze </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657262 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 15:28:06 +0000 morethanbeige 657262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the dress and it looks so fab with your coloring! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657237 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 14:47:29 +0000 Ana 657237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the suggestions and comments on the dress, everyone! I really appreciate it. I guess I need to wear the dress out and go belt shopping so I can experiment a little bit.</p> <p>Angie, do you mean a belt that is cheetah print or something? I have a zebra belt but it definitely does not go with the dress. It's possible a cream snake print would work.</p> <p>Lemonade, the dark bits on the dress are actually navy, not black. Sorry, I know it's hard to tell in the photo. I guess I would describe the dress as mostly navy, cream and coral, which is why I chose the brown shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657223 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 14:22:06 +0000 Irene 657223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Because I'm very minimal and the dress is interesting already, I would just pick a color of the dress -which I think is either red or black?- for the belt AND the shoes.</p> <p>I'm sorry I don't see those shoes with the dress, but then again I am a bit biased since I have a brown+black+is+just+not+right trauma. </p> <p>The dress is gorgeous and looks great on you, by the way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657198 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 13:40:32 +0000 Angie 657198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous frock!</p> <p>I am going to push you out of your comfort zone, Ana.

I habr trouble seeing the wider belts working as I feel the dress lends itself to a slimmer belt. My first thought was a red belt and to keep it simple. Or match the shoes:). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657121 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 08:32:26 +0000 harmonica 657121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!

I would go for a thin tan belt or no belt at all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657116 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 08:15:14 +0000 CocoLion 657116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't mind the self belt. It makes the dress easily casual. But since you're asking...</p> <p>I like the options you have chosen if you go the wide, waist belt route. Otherwise, a medium width black belt, neutral in personality, is not too classic for this dress.</p> <p>I'm not sure if you're in the market for belts, but I have been loving the selection of slim belts at J Crew this year. Very good leather, great colors, these are my two favorites.</p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/accessories/belts/PRDOVR~85327/99102718105/ENE~1+2+3+22+4294967294+20~0~~17~90~all~mode+matchallany~~~~~belts/85327.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/womens_ca...../85327.jsp</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/accessories/belts/PRDOVR~30867/99102121680/ENE~1+2+3+22+4294967294+20~0~~17~90~all~mode+matchallany~~~~~belts/30867.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/womens_ca...../30867.jsp</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657098 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 06:20:30 +0000 Kari 657098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think a thin cognac, silver, or muted red (plain/unadorned) would be my preference. </p> <p>I adore that dress on you, Ana. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657097 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 06:04:56 +0000 Lyn D. 657097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first Nordy. belt. Or maybe an orangy-reddy colour to match the flower on the dress? I agree that a proper belt will really lift the Fab quotient of the outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657078 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 04:37:45 +0000 Aziraphale 657078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe a skinny blond belt? Or a bright yellow one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657054 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 03:55:54 +0000 Tanya 657054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous dress Ana! I would also go with a thinner belt in a tan color family. Maybe a braided one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657046 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 03:26:25 +0000 Ana 657046@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I was wondering about belt width, too. I currently have a brown belt that is 1.5" wide, but I think ti's a bit too polished and "modern" for this dress. It has a square buckle. I was thinking a brown belt in a different style might go with some of my other knit dresses too. </p> <p>Diana, that is a good point about the cutouts and the print. Maybe I will look for something less busy. It is an Anthro fitting room, hee hee. There are two Anthros here and that one has much better lighting than the one closer to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657042 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 03:21:04 +0000 Diana 657042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this might be fun with a yellow belt! Cognac is good too although I'm not sure about the ones you've linked. They seem slightly too busy to me with the cutout patterns possibly competing with the print on the dress (which is fab by the way). Not sure that such a wide belt would work here either... seems like it might end up disproportionately close to the cutout at the top of the dress. But it's hard to tell without seeing it on.</p> <p>By the way, is that photo taken in an Anthro fitting room? It's sad that I recognize their fitting room decor... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657041 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 03:20:54 +0000 Sveta 657041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a cute dress and perfect for Texas heat!<br /> anything in a similar shade for the shoes should work as well as belt in any of the colors from the dress print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657038 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 03:16:07 +0000 Anonymous 657038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a cute dress! You may just have to experiment. My first thought before opening your links was a narrow orange or tomato red belt, but I suppose that's a no brainer. Of those you posted I like thefirst one best, the color and the design that kind of echos the pattern of the dress.<br /> Oh, how about leopard?<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/michael-michael-kors-reversible-leather-belt/3144786?origin=category&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=1724" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/mi.....tback=1724</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-kind-of-belt-with-this-dress#post-657027 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 03:02:33 +0000 Ana 657027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Everyone!</p> <p>This dress has a self-belt (you can almost see it in the photo) but I don't like it. I'd like to wear a real belt with it, but I'm not totally sure which style and color would work best. I'd love some suggestions! I'm thinking probably brown/cognac? </p> <p>Here are a couple I was considering, but I'm not sure:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/fina-firenze-belts-lacy-perforated-stretch-belt/3307808?origin=category&#038;BaseUrl=Waist" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/fi.....eUrl=Waist</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/vince-camuto-roller-buckle-belt/3269636?origin=category&#038;BaseUrl=Waist" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/vi.....eUrl=Waist</a></p> <p>I've attached photos of the shoes I plan to wear with it.
