How To Store ~ Belts
Does your belt collection look like a jumbled mess of disorganization? Are you rushing in the mornings unable to pick out the accessory you need to make your outfit complete? Does this picture resemble your closet? If you answered yes to any of these questions, don’t worry – HELP is available!
In all seriousness, I am about to show how I store my belts. They are my favorite accessory and a vital part of my wardrobe! Belts are the final thing to add to punch up an outfit, pull two pieces together, define a waist or simply hold up pants. In this little box I can fit most of my belts, I make sure to store them neatly so that each belt is visible and easy to access. The box is perfect to store in my dresser as I can also pull it out for a closer look instead of digging around for the items in the back where I cannot see.
The more delicate or impossibly stiff belts go on this dollar store space saving hanger in my closet. Love this new sparkler I picked up at the thrift.
This program has been brought to you by the fine people at Style Symmetry.
Yes I’ve watched too many infomercials.

Americas Next Top Model Season 12 Episode 9
We start this weeks episode with the girls arriving in Brazil! After a lame scavenger hunt they get a lesson in Capoeira followed by a photo challenge, the goal is to look strong and like a model at the same time. Fo wins the challenge and her prize is 50 extra frames at the next photshoot and she gets to take them away from a model of her choice! Being as Fo is still sore at Teyona for leaving her out of her challenge win she takes her frames.
For the photo shoot the girls were dressed up a la Carmen Miranda complete with fruit headpieces. Allison was credited best picture of the week, and yet I think she is still doing the same face, even though I do love this shot. Teyona, I don’t know I used to think she was lucky but now I think she is just ridiculously photogenic, I wouldn’t be horrified if she won.
Oh Fo, you are just so cute and need to remember the judges want you to be fierce instead. And Celia looking very stern here, and did you note Tyras comment about how old she looks? Uhoh girl I love you and your future is bright but you won’t win this competition.
The bottom of the barrel! Why could it have not been a double elimination week? Aminat with her horrible everything and Natalie with her bad attitude and same old same old. Sorry, the ANTM website didn’t have Natalies picture up for some reason, so here is a on set shot. I said last week Natalie needed to step or step down (in so many words) and she was sent home.
Thoughts?
