Colours probably got brighter and designs became more innovative, while styles are now even more edgy and there is a much wider assortment for everyone to choose from! But despite all of these options, the belt is still the same old accessory that holds your pants up if you are a guy or accentuates your curves and gives definition to your waist and hips if you are a woman. Now that is not to sound too boring. Once you step into the big, bright world of belts, it is sure to become an obsession. Nay, fetish!
