Can you believe that I almost decluttered this amazing belt?!?

I recently did a declutter of my jewelry and accessories in an attempt to curate my collection to be more in line with my current style, and one of the items that I’d decided to get rid of was this double belt that I’d bought back in college. I haven’t really worn it much in recent years so I thought that maybe it was time to let go of it. But after I put it in the declutter pile, I couldn’t stop thinking about.

Luckily, I still had all of the items in the house so I took it back out of the pile and had a go at styling it with some of my current items.

(1) First, over a dress over jeans. I brought the silver loop to the center of my waist so that it was visible under the cardigan.

(2) I added a chain necklace for a little more detail and some shine.

(3) (4) I moved the silver loop to the hip and unfastened one off the belts to just let it hang.

(5) Belt details.

(6) lWithout the belt, which I think makes the outfit.

I’m glad that I brought this back into my wardrobe. Along with my other 2 belts from college, this is my declaration that I will never declutter either of them!
