Belt this

I belt everything. I am convinced that adding a belt makes my manish figure look more ladylike. I could be wrong in this, and I'm sure that in a couple years from now I'll look back on old photos and wonder, "Why did I belt that?!"

Future self, if you're looking at this post and wondering that, please know that you bought this skirt at the thrift store and it had a busted elastic waist which you hadn't yet replaced. The belt was a necessity to keep said skirt up. (There is no explanation for this, though).

I joked on Twitter the other day that I should start coming up with style blogger song parodies. This one is called "If You Liked it Then ya' Shoulda Put a Belt on it" (sung in the style of Beyoncé's "Single Ladies"):

All the style bloggers, All the style bloggers
All the style bloggers, All the style bloggers
All the style bloggers, All the style bloggers
All the style bloggers,
Now put your hands up
Up on the blog, I just got dressed
Writin' my blog post now
I posted my pics but now I wanna trip
Cuz another blogger featured me
I’m up on hers, she up on mine
I'm Tweeting all this attention
I mugged in the mirror, got no more fears
This belt makes me look skinny

Right? If you liked it then you should have put a belt on it
If you liked it then you shoulda put a belt on it
Don’t be mad once you see that she cinched it
If you liked it then you shoulda put a belt on it

woo oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh ooh oh oh oh
