The Emma belt by Thomas Pink

In the ebb and flow of life, the Belt seems to have all but disappeared.  A bit like hats.  I first saw this one in the window of a shop when Christmas shopping and it stopped me in my tracks. I managed to restrain the desire of buying there and then (just) in the hope it would be in the Sale – and it was, reduced from £49.00 to £29.00 which really is a paltry sum for such a peacock piece – You certainly can’t wear it with your hands folded in your lap.

I want to wear it with a loose silk shirt dress in a dark navy blue.  But it’ll work with most staples, taking them on multiple journeys (such a win win).

Pieces like this are so important: Mixing opposites, crafting wrong combinations to create something right..they shouldn’t be ignored.

So I say long live the belt!
