This dazzling belt caught my eye straight away – if I had $350 to spare I´d love to jazz up my Little Black Dress with it! What girl doesn´t love sparkly accessories? A glittery belt is the perfect way of adding that touch of glamour without overdoing it. I´d wear it with my short-sleeved black dress and a beret for Parisian style.

2. J Crew

J Crew Price: $30 at net-a-porter.com

This braided belt is more in the affordable bracket. What I love about it is the dazzling orange colour. If you don´t like bright outfits, but want to add a little color to what you´re wearing, then belts are a great way of doing this, as are bags. This one will look as good with summer outfits as with winter clothes.

3. Marni

Marni Price: $320 at net-a-porter.com

This is the less-is-more of belts. A stunning belt doesn´t have to be dramatic; sometimes it´s the quality of the materials and design that do the trick. This Marni belt seems on first glance to be just a basic black belt, but those with an eye for style will see how well the gold buckle stands out against the black background.

4. Emilio Pucci

Price: $835 at net-a-porter.com

I must admit that I like the look of this belt more than I like the idea of wearing it! I don´t have a very long waist, so wide belts are too constricting for me. However, it is beautiful, isn´t it? The contrast decoration of the thin faux-belt makes it look like two belts in one.

5. Gucci

Gucci Price: $880 at net-a-porter.com

For a bit of bling (well, quite a lot actually), take a look at this Art Deco- inspired Gucci belt. The Swarovski crystal buckle is very 1920s Manhattan. If your budget doesn´t quite stretch that far, look for a gorgeous buckle in a flea market and attach it to a more budget belt.

6. Bottega Veneta

Price: $750 at net-a-porter.com

Most belts save their decoration for the buckle. This Bottega Veneta belt has an interesting twist to it, with the gold trim on the belt itself, and a very plain buckle. It would look stunning cinching in a plain dress, or with a white satin shirt.

7. Proenza Schouler

Proenza Schouler Price: $255 at net-a-porter.com

Do you like tribal chic? Then opt for a belt like this intricately woven and colourful one from Proenza Schouler. It also adds a subtle touch of color without being overwhelming. The woven pattern has a fun look about it, so is ideal for giving a young, summery, look to an outfit.

8. Sofia Kokosalaki

Sofia Kokosalaki Price: $2,310 at net-a-porter.com

We´re well into dream territory here, but what a dream it is! This is a truly dazzling belt in more ways than one, with more than $2k worth of Swarovski crystals. If you´re a very creative person, you could even try making your own version – wouldn´t it look stunning?

I´ve shown you some amazingly dazzling belts here – okay, few of us would pay that much.for a belt, but it´s fun to dream! Use them as inspiration, and find more affordable versions to make your outfits look special. Belts don´t just have to be practical, they can be beautiful too. How much would you pay for a truly stunning belt?
