Honestly, I always kinda side-eye really expensive belts. Like, dude, it holds up your pants. How much fancier can you *make* that job, really? But… I gotta admit, Burberry does it right. Or, at least, *tries* to.
The thing with a Burberry leather belt, especially the reversible ones (black/tan/light gold? Yes, please!), is that it’s not *just* about holding up your trousers. It’s about the *flex*, right? The subtle (or not-so-subtle, depending on how loud you dress) “I’m wearing Burberry, deal with it” vibe. I mean, they slap that TB logo on there for a reason. It ain’t exactly hiding, is it?
And the leather… yeah, it’s good leather. Like, feels-nice-against-your-skin-even-if-it’s-under-your-shirt-and-belt-loops good leather. You know, the kind that smells rich (yes, leather *smells* rich, fight me). It’s totally an upgrade from that pleather monstrosity I picked up for like ten bucks at *that* store. You know the one.
The “new-season” stuff is always interesting, too. I saw something about silk ties in Burberry Check, and, okay, fine, I get it. They’re trying to tie everything together (pun intended, sorry). But the belt is where it’s at, imo. It’s more… everyday-wearable? A tie is kinda “special occasion,” but a good belt? That’s your *daily* dose of luxury.
Now, I saw something about “Burberry trench coats for women in signature gabardine,” and I’m like… what’s that got to do with belts? Marketing, I guess. They want you thinking “Burberry = Fancy Stuff,” which, fair enough, they’ve kinda nailed.
But the real kicker is the price. I’m seeing “Upto 60% Off” online in India? Now *that* is something. I’m suddenly way more interested. Maybe this is the universe telling me I *need* a Burberry belt. Maybe.
