  • Belts

    Ok.. I don't feel like springing for new jeans right now, they're to dang expensive! I've got three pairs that are in good shape and that are comfy and I like them.. only problem? They are falling off! I went to Catherine's and Fashion Bug looking for a belt but haven't had any luck. GRR! I don't want to have to go buy a man's belt.. but it looks like I may end up having to do that. *sigh*

    Anyone have any idea where to find a nice belt? One that will hold up well under a lot of wear and tear.. because honestly I'm not that easy on my clothes.

    I have a great suggestion! I'm not sure where you live but most full service dry cleaners have a seamstress on duty. If not, look in the phone book or check with the clerks at a fabric store (ex: JoAnn's fabrics) and ask for a seamstress reference. They will be able to alter them to fit (usually by taking in the waist and butt area). It usually costs only 7-15 dollars around the Los Angeles area. It sometimes feels better to have them fit then to bunch them up under a heavy belt.
    Good Luck. :yes

      Well it doesnt say what size you wear or what your waist size is but i had never been able to wear belts but at walmart the jeans there have some cute belts that actually fit my large waist and are comfy too- good luck so maybe when you go buy one more pair of jeans you can go there and get he ones with a belt and use that

        I have two pairs of jeans that fit me...I'm too cheap to go and buy more right now. However, now that summer is coming, you should be able to go to thrift stores and buy jeans for really good prices....

          Torrid has really cute, larger size belts. Also, if you have a discount store like Ross, you can find jeans with a belt on them for under $15.

            I have luck at Wal-Mart with the belts too. Also, have you tired Lane Bryant? There clothes are really expensive, but their accessories are reasonable and I know they have belts.
