How to Style: Gold Statement Belt

Hello everyone! I hope you had a great week and are ready for this weekend. It is going to be a beautiful weekend in the Chicagoland area, so you are sure to need some great outfits to enjoy any event you may have planned. Today, I am sharing my tips on how you can incorporate a gold statement belt into a variety of outfits for the Summertime ahead. A gold statement belt really takes any look up a notch and totally gives you a fashion forward vibe. Check out my tips below:

1. Wear the belt with a jumpsuit. Jumpsuits, especially very crisp and tailored ones are already chic; however, adding a gold statement belt just really amps up the look.

2. Layer a gold statement belt over a chunky cardigan/kimono. This idea will really tie the entire look together and makes it that much more lux.

3. Pair the belt with a pair of ripped jeans and a simple white tee to make your casual look complete. A gold belt adds a bit of shine and detail to even the simplest outfits.

4. Tone down your other accessories. Sure, you can wear a few pieces, but make sure none of them compete with the belt, especially if you are wearing the belt over a printed garment. Daintier pieces are a great way to add just enough shine, without getting carried away.
