Outfit Post: Shopping in Suburbia.

Top from Nordstrom Rack (originally from the Nordstrom’s Juniors Section), belt from Urban Outfitters, cropped pants from Loehmann’s (Necessary Objects), flats by Jessica Bennett, gold and jade necklace from Taiwan.

I have mixed feelings about this outfit, which I put together for a trip to the Natick Collection mall. I’m on the curvier side when it comes to Asian body types and the fatty belt in general is not super great on chestier girls. When I wear the belt as a drop waist it looks a fair bit nicer.

For people like me who don’t feel that they rock the cinch belt too well, I generally recommend wide belts below the true waistline for trying to capture the spirit of the cinch belt style that’s still going fairly strong (see the BCBG Maz Azria fall RTW show for this year).
