I’ve never been a big belt person. But I kinda want to get more into it. Hence this post. For this latest installment of The Art of Discovery, I’ve compiled inspiration from runway images both recent and old, along with some vintage editorials from the 1970s. And since I’m a virgo, I felt the need to organize it into categories. This week, you’ll find my taxonomy of belts, laid out through a parallelism to coffee drinks.

As for my personal recent purchases, I bought a great secondhand “lungo” belt (you’ll get the reference when scrolling down) at a local store in the UWS, to go with my Insomnia dress for my birthday look below. Also, this GAP “black coffee” belt for day-to-day looks. And the not-so-recent Nanushka alt-leather belt.
