I will never stop wearing belts. Especially those from this lovely brand. The metal is actually gold which is great. I thought it looked silver in the photo but glad it turned out to be gold. Simple yet elegant. I love you shopbop.

Pros: This belt is adorable! It's elastic construction makes it suitable for all shapes and sizes, and works equally well with a dress, cardigan, or tee! Plus, the elastic allows for some weight fluctuation (gain AND loss), which isn't always an option with your standard leather belt. Cons: It is a bit pricey, considering the materials used in the construction of the belt are elastic, which wears out/rots over time, and a rather lightweight metal clasp. I would feel much more comfortable with the price of this belt had the metal closure been constructed using a heavier/more weighty metal. Bottom line: I am glad I purchased this belt with the discount code that was being offered at the time for 20% off. When all is said and done, I would recommend this belt to others for its versatility and cute style!
