It looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-with-two-belts#post-447712 Wed, 19 Oct 2011 14:02:13 +0000 Scarlet 447712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those belts look wonderful!!!

Make sure your two belts are the same width.<br /> 2. Fasten the end of belt 1 into the buckle of belt 2. Now you have a doubly-long belt.<br /> 3. Wrap it around your waist twice. (make sure you have the right total length when the belts are linked together)<br /> 4. Fasten the end of belt 2 into the buckle of belt 1.<br /> 5. Try it before buying if possible!</p> <p>Tip: For a nice offset of the two buckles, get the two belts in two different lengths. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-with-two-belts#post-447487 Wed, 19 Oct 2011 02:15:21 +0000 JennyAnne 447487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you are a creative genius!

I am discovering the wonders double belt does to my high waist and will definitely be on the lookout for something that could be used this way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-with-two-belts#post-447360 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 23:06:08 +0000 chewyspaghetti 447360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually have a belt that I bought two of, specifically to wear it this way. I love double belts, but they are hard to find. I would not have thought to use two different belts, but that works too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-with-two-belts#post-447357 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 23:04:12 +0000 Anonymous 447357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you kidding me? That is freakin' genius! Love the vintage vibe it gives to your 50's outfit (which is fab, BTW). You look tres adorable!</p> <p>I might have to copycat you. Just sayin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-an-experiment-with-two-belts#post-447353 Tue, 18 Oct 2011 22:59:41 +0000 mamaKate 447353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you ever worn two belts simultaneously, buckled to each other? What do you think of the effect? (worn today in my 50's "dress the decade" outfit)</p> <p>The idea seemed to come to me out of the blue last week. (Probably though, the seed got planted from those J Crew catalogs showing the models wearing a single belt wrapped twice around their waists.) Anyway, batting for Team Belt, I took the idea as an opportunity to shop. I was looking for two belts that:<br /> -had similar-toned hardware,<br /> -were of the same width (so that they could be buckled interchangeably),<br /> -were slightly different colors.<br /> -I also wanted the buckles to be offset from each other so I specifically sought one belt that is too small for my natural waist and one that is too big. </p> <p>Miraculously, at my local consignment shop, I found two belts that meet all these criteria and, voile, here is the effect! What do you think, will it become a new fringe trend? </p>
