Stronger adhesive needed

Button down, pants, belt: NY&Co;
Cardigan: Target; Shoes: Aldo

I picked up this belt Friday afternoon- it's grey and was on sale :) I like it a lot, but the long end doesn't want to behave. I've got 2 glue dots on there- two! I may have to break out something stronger. I really like the idea of belts- they add a lot to an outfit, but I still have some figuring out to do to make them work for me. I feel like it's making my sweater bunch up in questionable ways.

This is the most accessorizing I think I've ever done- I like it!

I love these shoes. I'm pretty sure they love me back.

You could always try a clear plastic hairholder-- I usually use bobby pins but only on my darker belts. I've tried the plastic hairband thing before on lighter colors & it works fabulously!

You could also try tucking the belt into itself on the side. I do that sometimes. Then I've used a hair elastic. Love that pin on your cardigan!

Those shoes are the tops! I love a nude shoe. Just skimming your blog--very nice! The Midwest also created my love of hosiery, as well. I always lived in the South so it was never completely necessary, but when my husband and I moved to Iowa a few years ago, we learned quickly how cold cold can be.

Again, great blog, I'll check back often!
