I have been doing quite a bit of 'girly things' type posts lately, so I guess it is time for another mens service announcement. This time, Belts... Unfortunately, Men feel the urge to collect belts over the years. And when they hit what they feel is 'Belt Critical Mass' stop. So, when they look in their closet and see a fine array of 52" braided pleater belts they used to sport with their Z Cavaricci's 15 years ago, they think their covered for any black tie affair... When the truth is, short of going to a 'My So Called Life' marathon the only thing that belt is good for is.. Well.. Going to a 'My So called Life' marathon... Because at that point who cares about your belt, we have deeper issues to worry about.
Overall, many men don't understand the importance of a good belt. Or actually, have a hard time understanding the importance of wearing a belt in general. So, for starters, every man should have at the least 3 belts.
- • Brown Casual Belt
- • Black Casual Belt
- • Dress belt
If you don't have at least those three belts, you need to get your ass over to a store and pick some up. And don't just pick up any belt, find some that fit you... [ Editor Notes: Asking the opinion of a cute store clerk is always an awesome way to initiate conversation. And, making the Joke `How will this look on the floor next to your bed?` is a good way to get slapped. ] And, if you're still in denial about needing new belts, if you answer "yes" to any of the following questions... You're just lame:
- • Do you use the last hole in your belt because it was from back in the day when you were `Fat`
- • Do you use the first hole in your belt because it was from before you 'met her' and decided you were comfortable in the relationship therefore letting yourself go?
- • Can you see the button on your jeans when you wear the belt?
- • Did you purchase your belt the same day you purchased an MC Hammer album?
- • Was your belt buckle gold, but now is silver because the paint wore off?
- • Is it in any way, reversible?
- • You've said, "Who cares? My Shirt will cover it up...."
So, If by now if you're convinced, Check out stores like Lucky Jeans [ See, Belt Above.. ], Ambercrombie, Banana Republic, Kenneth Cole, etc... Or you possibly might even get lucky at a Department store...
You can try buying one over the Internet, if you really want to, but then you don't get to talk to the pretty girls at the store... ;)
