Fashion can sometimes be a minefield. Just one wrong decision and you could end up in the world of style faux pas. One of the most confusing questions we often ask ourselves is: should we wear the belt over or under the sweater? Well, pack your styling armor and prepare for the epic battle of belt positions. It's time to settle this fashion question once and for all!
Team Over-Sweater: The eye-catching accent
Those who wear the belt over the sweater live by the motto "see and be seen". A belt worn visibly over the sweater can be a great way to accentuate the waist and add extra dimension to your outfit. This look works especially well with loose-fitting sweaters, as the belt helps define the figure and gives the sweater some shape. But beware, my fashionable friends! A belt worn over the sweater can sometimes seem too dominant and distract from other style elements of your outfit. So, when you choose Team Über sweater, make sure your belt and sweater are connected in harmonious unity.
Team Under-Sweater: The Subtle Structurer
On the other side of the fashion stadium we have the team under sweater. These people prefer to wear the belt under the sweater to add subtle structure without stealing the spotlight. This way of wearing a belt is ideal if your sweater is short enough to show the belt, or if you're partially tucking a longer sweater into your pants. A word of warning though: make sure your sweater isn't too long or your stylish belt could get lost in the fabric jungle.
And the winner is...
Surprise! There is no winner. (Has anyone ever said "the customer is always right"?) Whether you wear your belt over or under your sweater really depends on your personal style and the look you want. Both team over-sweaters and team under-sweaters have their strengths, and the choice is yours. Try both styles and see which one you like best.
After all, there are no fixed rules in fashion. The only judge that matters is your reflection in the mirror. So, whichever team you choose, rock your belt with confidence and style. Because at the end of the day, the best belt wearer is the one who feels comfortable in their skin (and their belt)!
