Oh, man, that cincher belt with the black buttons is perfect.
Trust me, it is.
I have a couple of broomstick skirts to start off with.
See, those would work.
Isn't this lovely?
I'll probably end up getting one like that from that seller. Everything I've gotten from them has been exactly what I wanted.
Oh, Corwood, am perfectly prepared to admit "You're as big a pain in the ass as the rest of us," bunk. It's the least I could do.
I'm also betting that it wouldn't be full skirts, frilly blouses, and bolero jackets.
OMG, I flipped by a classic 80s episode of Love Connection the other day, and the guy was saying he had bought a new suit for the date, complete with bolero jacket. HAR.
The problem with that belt is that it's gold-based.
I don't have much in the way of blousy pretty tops, but I can sure muster tops like the one in the picture.

Hee! Of course, I know of at least two guys in the local Goth scene that still wear 80s suits with bolero jackets, but it works on them.

I know I've seen ones with silver hardware. Check the info, because they may offer to change hardware to suit your needs.
I remember those things. With wretched awful monster enamelled clasps.
Evil food pirates in China have developed a way to make fake eggs out of gelatine, benzoic acid, alum, and other ingredients of varying toxicity. The eggs are sold at a very low price to unsuspecting consumers and can be cooked just like the real thing. The good news: no cholesterol. The bad news: eating too many can lead to dementia. Link to a blog entry on the topic. Here's a research study from 2005 with some helpful tips on how to roll your own dementia-inducing pirate eggs: "The World's Most Unbelievable Invention," by Alexander Tse-Yan Lee.

I'm sure it does. For them. This guy was just a tool all the way around. I mean, he bought a new style of clothes for a blind date! (The 'funny story' was about how long it took him to get dressed after their first activity.)

The hardware's fine. But the lace used for the prettiest of the belts is red/gold or black/gold.
Still, I have some fuel for poking around eBay. You and Betsy are annoying like that.
The red brocade belt is making me whimper with longing. Curse this budget that makes it impossible for me to justify spending almost $50 on a belt!
(Actually, come to think of it, I don't think I've ever spent more than $20 on a belt, and that one had a handmade pewter faux-medieval sun belt buckle and was exactly $20 and was severely marked down or I'd never have looked at it. Maybe I'm not budgeting, maybe I'm just cheap.)
