Since the Bronze Age, belts have been part of peoples’ clothing may it be on a usual day-to-day wear or on an out of the ordinary event. Both genders wore them not just for necessity but for aesthetic reasons as well. Belts may come in a variety of dimensions and shades, but it would always be the buckle that ultimately creates the statement. With its tons of distinctive motifs, it would suit whichever preference one wants or needs in a day. Some are simple, some filled with prints and adorned with lots of pretty stuff, while others are studded with diamond-like stones. Some of these artistic stones are called rhinestones where RHINESTONE BELT BUCKLES are named after.

These stones used to embellish RHINESTONE BELT BUCKLES were originally from rock crystals gathered from the river Rhine. But to enlarge its availability for the general population, an Alasatian jeweler Georg Friedrich Strass made an imitation by coating the lower side of glass with metal powder making it look quite like diamonds. Years later, Swarovski, a brand name for a range of cut crystal and related luxury products introduced Aurora Borealis, a thin, vacuum-sputtered metallic coating which were applied to crystal stones making a uniquely beautiful iridescent effect on the stones. The coating, which tends to reflect whatever color is worn near it, was named after the Aurora Borealis atmospheric phenomenon.

Moreover, a variety of these aesthetic stones are not just used to make belt buckles fine-looking and only one of its kind but also to make other pieces such as costumes, used by not just ordinary people attending special occasions but by celebrated stars alike as the ‘King of Rock and Roll’ Elvis Presley and most notably in liberal use by country music singers; apparel, jewelry, and other glassworks to be as delectable as well.

Whatever your preference may be as an individual, and for whatever reason you may have to wear belts on a certain day or event – a wise choice of a buckle is utterly important. Buckles do great things to a certain wear, be it a one-piece or a two-piece suit. It can make a ‘nothing’ into a ‘something’. A simple casual wear can turn into something you want it to be – exactly how you wanted to look like, just by adding a good detail. RHINESTONE BELT BUCKLES are just a few of the countless selection of buckles you can freely choose from.

From a purely simple black-colored ‘Rhinestone Fleur De Lis Belt Buckle’ to a beautifully studded ‘Gold Baseball and Bats Belt Buckle’, you have loads of these uniquely appealing RHINESTONE BELT BUCKLES to pick from. You can look up and grab for yourself at www.hotbuckles.com.

celebrities wearing belt buckles

The oldest belt buckle dates from the first century when Romans ruled the fashion of the time. This little item survived through the years and made it to the 21st century, but few people know how to choose a belt buckle, nor how to wear it.

First, you should match your belt with your shoes and your buckle should fit in nicely with the belt and the entire outfit. When you wear a pair of black shoes, for example, you should match them with a black belt. As for the belt buckle, it must be matched with your other accessories. If you wear stainless steel accessories, your belt buckle must belong to the same chromatic family and material, so you could choose a stainless steel belt buckle or a platinum one.

What not to wear: silver-like accessories and golden belt buckle or vice-versa.

Don’t mix styles: if you wear a t-shirt with denim pants don’t put on an elegant belt with a stylish belt buckle. Instead, choose a sporty belt and a playful belt buckle or a western-style belt buckle. It will give you a smart/sporty look.

On the other hand, when adopting a smart office look and wearing a grey jacket on top of a dress, you can accessorize your outfit with a black, simple belt and a golden belt buckle, like Cameron Diaz.

Even if big belt buckles are old-fashioned, you can still wear them if you like, but be careful how you match them and when you wear them. On a crazy night out or on a weekdays outings, a big, flat belt buckle can take your outfit to a whole new level, but it’s inappropriate to wear this kind of buckle at work or when attending a classy event.

A good idea is to match a big western belt buckle with a big cowboy-style hat. Throw in a suit jacket, denim pants and a white shirt and your outfit will be complete, whether you are a man or a woman.

A huge mistake when it comes to belts and buckles is wearing them with suspenders. No matter how wacky, sporty or colorful you want to look, no matter how small is the belt buckle or how thin is the belt, never wear a belt and suspenders at the same time. These two pieces just can’t be mixed!

If you aim for a gaga look choose a plain belt and match it with an oversized belt buckle with a message on it, like Madonna.
