Things I Can Do Right Now #6

Just belt it!
Ahhh so easy, yet so complex ;)
I love a belted dress because you have so many options. It can polish it off, like this look from Tod’s or add a bit of edge to something a little fancier like at Bottega Veneta. It’s also a nice trick for making your summer dresses work for fall, the weather is still warm enough for them, but adding a heavier belt makes them work perfectly for fall.
Oh, and remember Meredith in this dress?
It’s a look you can totally do right now. What do you think?
Qu’est-ce que c’est beau une robe ceinturée, particulièrement sur une maxi chemise!
J’adore.

I’m a big fan of belting it! Not noly on large dresses but also on large shirts.
Great inspiration!

Ok Garance il y aura donc une vidéo cette semaine? Je m’ennuie de PMF!! …Même si je suis bien consciente que ça doit te donner beaucoup de boulot (hâte de voir la vidéo!)
J’aime beaucoup porter une ceinture sur robes, jupes et pantalons. Cela finit une silhouette comme le foulard et les gants.
What a great idea, can’t wait to try it out!

I absolutely love this look! The belts make such a nice silhouette and have a chic twist! It’s so 50s and underlines the feminine curves! In addition belt do make your wait look slim and it is all in all a beautiful look! Bise

Sometimes I think…I don’t got the waist for it, but then I remember, I can rock it!
Your Friend, Jess
I definitely agree. Belting a dress can really change the entire feel of an outfit.

Love it. I remember seeing a very chic woman in Paris (natch!) wearing a thin silver belt with a khaki Army shirt worn over a simple white linen sheath dress. Of course I spent the rest of my time in Paris looking for a thin silver belt. I also love the look of a long tunic top worn belted over a skirt, a la Tod’s.
Love this look, especially when the belt has an interesting buckle, texture or print like the snakeskin. Here’s a tip – a tightly belted belt does not maketh a flattering waistline!
I don’t own any for some reason, but I’m a big fan of those wide belts like the one pictured here in the center. The fact that they’re reminiscent of corsets makes them even more fun.
I’m a big fan of belting dresses. Haven’t used wide belts for a while, the dress on Liu Wen has inspired me to do the same with my oversized shirt dresses.

I love belts, but no can do I’m afraid. I have no waist! And it’s not an area you want to draw attention to unless it’s in ship-shape. A bulge below the belt is not chic. More sit ups, I think…
I don’t think I ever wore a dress without a belt. If I don’t wear a belt, I look like a big potato sack :)
Hello Garance,
Une question qui n’a pas forcément grand chose à voir avec le post mais: vas-tu faire des Pardon My French pour cette Fashion Week?
Les vidéos sont toujours chouettes!
Garance, verrons-nous bientôt de nouveaux épisodes de Pardon My French?
