So, I was, like, totally scrolling through eBay the other day (don’t judge, we all do it!), and BAM! A whole universe of pre-loved Givenchy belts just smacked me in the face. And honestly? They’re way more interesting than anything they’re churning out today. Like, sure, the modern stuff is probably nice, all sleek and…whatever. But give me a chunky chain belt from the ’70s or ’80s any day. Talk about iconic!
I saw one that was described as “Metal/chain style. Very good condition, no visible tarnishing or flaws.” And the main focus? A winged design! Seriously? Wings! On a belt! How freaking cool is that? It screams “I have my life together, but I’m also a secret badass” which, let’s be real, is the vibe we’re all aiming for, right? The description said it was 32 inches, which, depending on your waist situation (no shame!), could be perfect or… require a bit of creative styling. But hey, a little DIY never hurt anyone!
Then there’s the men’s stuff. Okay, okay, “men’s” belts. But honestly, fashion doesn’t have a gender these days, does it? This one was a “Maximalist style belt with a Givenchy Logo on each rectangular link.” Like, imagine rocking that with a simple black dress or even just jeans and a white tee. Instant upgrade! It even had a hook thingy so you can let the end hang down or “swaged,” as they put it. I had to Google “swaged,” tbh. It’s, like, draped. Fancy draped. I’m picturing a power suit and a glass of champagne… *chef’s kiss*
And then – hold on to your hats – a snakeskin one! “Brown snakeskin material adds a touch of edginess to any ensemble.” YES. All the yes. Maybe a little “coutry club gone wrong,” but in the *best* way. They said it was a 40/100, which, I *think* is European sizing? Don’t quote me on that. Honestly, sizing charts confuse me. Anyway, the point is: SNAKESKIN.
