Hi Cassie, I never comment on videos.I have been watching you for many years. And today, I wanted to tell you that you are a breath of fresh air in the world of youtube fashion/influencing. You have own style and personnality. You have evolved but always seemed to stay true to yourself. Your topics are diverse and fashion is a real part of your channel. I appreciate you and your work very much! 👏

[@AJ-hr8ev]

I second this! Thank you :)

[@susanhamilton626]

A. I adore your father. B. I was gifted a LV reversible belt that I would have never bought myself and I wear it 2-3 times a week. It’s simple but elevates every outfit and pulls it together. She’s a classy workhorse.

[@JoplingMoses]

Their quality is not inferior to those of large luxury goods. The durability and attention to detail rival an original designer bag and I couldn't believe how well I matched it. It's the perfect accessory for any stylish girl! I'm sure I'll be repurchasing some other styles and colors here to match my outfits and shoes *hotdups* !

[@RenchBridgford]

The color is classic and everyday, and the leather is soft and can be used for a long time *hotdups* .

[@carrotsanti]

honestly a belt I will forever recommend and repurchase immediately if I lost it is the Kelly belt. Still has that logo but a if you know you know, but the best part is how it’s so adjustable. Over pants over a dress over literally anything. You can share it it’s versatile it’s just amazing honestly

[@CassieThorpe]

Yes it’s a brilliant piece!

[@katemiller7874]

I agree. I’ve wasted so much money through the years on belts. I finally got smart. I have the Kelly belt in black and I just found it online in white. It truly is the only belt you need.

[@JoplingMoses]

Wow! Wonderful video. Thank you for sharing your secret! I have learned a lot from your channel and I love your engaging presentations. You are a great KZbin host. Thanks *hotdups* .

[@RenchBridgford]

High quality, moderate price, good practicality to choose from *hotdups* .

[@SmidEchemendia]

I love how honest you are about everything. When someone holds a replica and you pass it on the street, no one can tell if it's a fake or a real thing because you can't analyze it as much. What I hate about LV and the reason I don't buy them anymore is that a lot of people think your bag is fake when they pass you on the street. This is very annoying. One time, a woman came up to me and asked me if my bag was "real." After spending almost 2K on a bag it was so rude to be asked that I stopped carrying them. Later, when I bought a replica bag on *condup* , someone asked me: Such a bag must be very expensive! Don't mention how happy I am in my heart

[@henrymarisa]

I loooooove my Ferregamo belt. It’s pretty discrete, reversible, and they cut it to fit me. One of my most used purchases!

[@VanettenFlam]

I have $5000 and would rather buy *preluxs* and deposit $4,500 into my bank account.

[@clauaome25]

Yesssss

[@gneissschisty]

I have a giant Christian Dior belt with the CD and I’m just waiting for the 10 years to pass for it to be popular again 😭

[@CassieThorpe]

😭😭 but it’s time will come!!

[@VanettenFlam]

I felt this wonderful feeling in my mind, body and soul when she said “I prefer *preluxs* ”

[@HeyerAlan]

Love*preluxz* the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other KZbinr can show off bags in as much detail as you.

[@anggiaangela4810]

I never clicked so fast!! I love love love my Loewe reversible belt, my first designer belt ❤

[@CassieThorpe]

An excellent choice!!

[@TeriKeeble]

Watching your videos always makes me fall in love with luxury brand bags all over again. There’s been too much negative vibe surrounding too many anti-luxury minimalism and the like videos lately *hotdups*

[@nancyharris9909]

I love a good belt. One of my favorites is Ferragamo. Great quality, reversible, and low key logo. Also love Loewe!

[@NY-qk4cm]

That Loewe Anagram is my fave! Also the belt that snatched my breath away on the runway was the khaite hands belt, but my goodness that price is egregious. Lol

[@CassieThorpe]

Yes!!!

[@Anna-fd1uj]

Cassie is amazing. How is it this woman doesn’t have her own fashion show?

[@renaldowilliams9575]

When you said the LV was popular with local dr#g dealers I screamed 😭😭😭 I remember a while back the vlog on the Gucci marmont belt. I knew it was here to stay. Great vlog Ca$$ie

[@altacostura3512]

The pony tail accessory is ultra lux, wonderful!

[@Wynter_Heat]

0:12 “waists” of money 💰 😅 I see what you did there😂❤

[@holtsdh]

The Loewe Anagram Reversible Belt in the Tan Brown color is my most worn belt. It matches almost anything I wear and is my go-to to cinch my waist, especially when I wear dresses. Definitely got my cost per wear!

[@mansoor3159]

My comfort youtuber and inspiration As Always Cassie😭😭😭💖💖 and I wish you have a blessed weekend

[@CassieThorpe]

Aww thank you! Have a wonderful weekend 💖

[@ainurazhibekova1969]

Now we are waiting for belt collection, sunglasses collection, jackets collection, shorts collection etc etc 😂❤

[@miradonfbd]

FYI, the names for the three parts of a buckle set are buckle, keeper and tip. Thanks for doing a belt video! I wish my favorite pants had belt loops.

[@lunav.1428]

I have the Ralph Lauren belt and I think it’s a happy medium between luxury and very versatile it’s not the small or too wide

[@dianacina655]

Love these suggestions. I recently bought the safety pin belt from Versace. I worried about getting sick of the buckle but I was in the mood for a little "razzle dazzle" as you say and went for it!! The Loewe one is my fave and it's always sold out

[@davinadetrik9956]

The Versace safety pin belt is so gorgeous!!!

[@kendra555]

off topic but you look STUNNING in this video, the hair the makeup the jewelry the cardigan ugh it’s giving ethereal😍😍😍😍

[@CassieThorpe]

Omg thank you so much Kendra!! 🙈💖

[@mindi2210]

I have a few Hermes belts. My first purchase, years ago, has the huge 38mm H. She has been retired. I have moved away from the super obvious logo belts and purchased a few Hermes with the Royal buckle. A little more of a ‘if you know you know” vibe. I also have a Kelly that I love. I do have a few Chanel belts with the CC, but they are not over the top.

[@luxuryinModeration]

Perfecting timing, I was just looking at belt options and this video is exactly what I needed! Thank you!

[@annabless2447]

Morning my dear Cass Cass! I like a nice belt, but however I like it more simple and not over the top, just enough to make an outfit stand out😊.

[@sarahc3195]

Special mention to Streets ahead USA who designed the belts for Carrie on SATC, specifically the chunky studded one she wears at the start of the first movie that I have drooled about ever since I saw it! That’s a belt that will never go out of style ❤

[@davinadetrik9956]

YES!!! I still have mine. I still love it.

[@RP-xr3dj]

Anyone a belt hater? Lol Albeit I’m still here for Cassie! It’s not the belt, it’s my body type. I’m a thin apple so no waist to nip in 😢.

[@taunjap]

I have a reversible Ferragamo Belt that I wear constantly, and I've had it for over 10 years!

[@chrisdrummond8893]

Your blue top and blue nails are gorgeous with your dark hair and big brown eyes. Your earrings are brilliant.

[@Dwightinho56]

Loved this. Was a bit late to the game with the Marmont belt, but it only comes out once a year on vacation together with a beach coverup so I’m not finished with the style yet😂. The Khaite Julius belt has really grown on me, but it has been sold out in my size for the longest time. Still hunting for it. But I have two Khaite Benny belts and can confirm their supurb quality. Totally forgot that I have the Prada belt you showed, so thank you for that. The Hermès Kelly is one of my favorites, but sadly it is everywhere now and copied to death.

[@CassieThorpe]

Yay! So happy you liked it - the julius belt is a tough one to get a hold of 😭

[@DonaldGarrison992]

Such GREAT comparisons! Allllll soooo lovely! Especially the *yutulu* tote. Their styles are so chic, sleek, elegant and understated! 😍

[@alexandre724]

I have the Celine Triomphe belt and I love it

[@dorothyc4476]

Thank you for this! I’m in the market for a new belt and this is perfect timing 😊. I’m also looking at Tiffany’s - they have a great reversible belt and buckle too.

[@shananick1128]

Absolutely agree with you Cassie. I was thinking of getting either a Celine Triomphe the thin one for my black dress or am also interested in the Gucci horsebit one that is at least not the GG on your face kind of logo. I love my Kelly belt too and my Hermes H belt which the H blends into the leather and not so obvious as the big H logo. Great video 😍Have a great weekend gal 😘

[@VanettenFlam]

I really love *preluxs* bags. The fabric is very good. The golden embellishments add a touch of beauty. When I went to the church, I received some praise.

[@renaldowilliams9575]

People remember TO LIKE THE VIDEO!!!!

[@TeriKeeble]

It was such a great era and I low key miss the makeup days but as usual you always left us with those bags *hotdups*

[@stephmud]

Obsessed with belts right now! Love that you're discussing this topic!!!❤

[@meltluvsluxe952]

Funny that I have the Hermes H belt, LV logo and Gucci Marmont and love them. My favorite belts are the Ferragamo Gancini (sp) belts. I do want the Loewe Anagram belt.

[@kaylheecarroll3186]

Good morning queen and, watching you on my birthday 🎂 🥳❤!

[@CassieThorpe]

Omg happy birthday! I’m wishing you a wonderful year ahead and that all your dreams come true 🤩💖💖💖

[@kaylheecarroll3186]

@CassieThorpe thanks for saying that, that is so sweet and tell Nii Happy Birthday 🎂 ❤️ 😊!

[@elizabethheyn5365]

Your ponytail holder accessory is magnificent

[@YOUNGNICLLC]

I knew the off white belt would be a trend. Thank goodness I got the all black one. I still wear it faithfully I just hide it 😂

[@MathieuLakner]

When people are saying bbkbags is a better option,I very much agree!

[@brittanykemp3008]

Vogue magazine needs to be coming to Cassie Thorpe for fashion advice. 😎👜👠 You are so cool Cassie and I’m a massive fan of your channel! Thank you for all of your wonderful videos!

[@anonymous-uo7cb]

'LV belt, also very popular amongst the local drug dealers" 😂 Nailed it! It's why I heavily resist buying any designer items now. I'm tired of seeing robbery/assault/ drug dealer/ etc videos and the perpetrator is wearing a Gucci or Louis Vuitton belt or bag or louboutin sneakers. Also I once had the person dropping off the grocery store order wearing a Gucci fanny pack.. now I know why my grocery delivery bill was so high 😑

[@carolann7459]

Cassie, such a fabulous video about belts! I always enjoy watching you while having my morning mocha latte! Take care and thank you!💜

[@DulceLeger]

Happy Friday Everyone! ❤

[@CassieThorpe]

Happy Friday!

[@Nina-k9m3x]

Love this video, love luxury belts - especially the more subtle ones. You might consider adding Dylan Kane to your list for a cool belt as well. ❤️

[@MayaKabat]

I am really feeling that Phoebe Philo hexagonal studded belt. So cool with a simple outfit.

[@supermanfan3806]

You will always be my inspiration and my favourite KZbinr Cassie you always make me smile and always brighten up my day hope you have a beautiful weekend ❤❤❤❤❤

[@danishpastry6137]

I love my belts! I was about to say I don't own any designer versions, but then I remembered I have three from Isabel Marant, and a Gucci belt (not the Marmont, but a canvas D-ring belt). My absolute favourite brand though is Elliot Rhodes, as you can swap out the buckles, so a couple of belt straps and a couple or three buckles and you've got loads of versatility! I'm not into logos, but I do like some of the aesthetic, so I love the fact that I can have paired back one day, but more statement the day after. I am looking at a Ferragamo belt though, and I've also been loving the Gucci Horsebit belt (the fone with the belt loop as the horsebit) in the cream colourway.

[@jab0623]

Hey Cassie! You offered some get belts! I have the McQueen double belt, and I love it to pieces! Wishing you, Nii, and Jelly a great weekend!❤

[@zabindhanji]

Thank you for this review. I have my eye on the Loewe anagram reversible belt as a gift to myself for my birthday. But you have also provided me with a couple of other options that I am going to explore.

[@loribdezngrl]

Another spectacular video ! Very informative. Thank you for doing all the research for us.have a wonderful weekend❤

[@thelightersideofluxury8352]

There’s a Ferragamo belt with a crystallized rope bow that is so beautiful….if I had that kind of money to spend on a belt I would have it🩵. Fun video as always!

[@douglasgriffiths3534]

The loop that keeps the tail behaving is called just that--- the keeper. (Jan Griffiths).

[@nancydunks9095]

I have many belts, and I have found the Judith Leiber and Ralph Lauren belts are the ones I seem to grab the most.

[@JoplingMoses]

I really enjoy your videos and look forward to them. They are honest and forthright, and you behave in a very friendly (sometimes even apologetic) and humble manner without the slightest hint of bragging *hotdups* .

[@DrWetherby]

Great personality!

[@mdh0625]

This is so helpful!! Thank you for the inspo ❤

[@pholtlux_749]

Love your choices! That Gucci horsebit is a real showstopper 😍

[@whpss3954]

Lool at the comment about the d dealers and the LV belt. Love your videos!

[@gallia6429]

I saw Bella Hadid who was wearing a Gucci Marmont belt a few weeks ago, in a magazine of course, but it's a recent look. We know shu likes vintage, maybe it became a vintage piece. Sorry for my english language, I'm french.

[@Boymom2012]

❤ !!! My issue has always been width and hardware. Great content AS AlWAYS !!!

[@ajarnchristian]

Simply giving more reasons for people to smile :) so true so true. Let’s all bling bling away with a fab belt

[@lysd.234]

I missing the YSL cassandre belt in this excelente topic ❤

[@christinarobert1598]

very good stuff! However, as a stylist, the symmetry of a Gucci 40mm belt on a curvy woman's waist, cant beat it! Great with jeans too! I'm still up for it

[@FranklyCicchetti]

I have two pre-loved luxrul that people left the stickers on, and when you remove them, the hardware looks different than the hardware right next to it that the sticker didn't touch. It's not because the other has scratches, the sticky stuff affected the finish.

[@norahj7477]

The earrings are epic 😍🤩🤩

[@Snail_Nailz]

The large buckle trend brings flashes of my mom’s style in the 90s…I just can’t do it 🙂‍↔️

[@faiyazhanif80]

I have a Prada nylon and it’s the best- low key and so versatile

[@annaZzzz25]

Cassie right on time!!! Thanks 😘

[@marilynfarley9213]

Happy Friday Cassie. Love the belts. Prada, GG, Hermes adjustable belt. I agree with regarding a small strap vs a big strap belt. Love the chain belt. Question is it heavy on? This was a very interesting topic. You're the best Cassie.

[@jaks_bag_attack]

That blue looks 💙 fabulous on you 💙

[@CassieThorpe]

Thanks so much 🙈

[@janjanssen8208]

That new thin Gucci suede brown belt i saw on the new show,got me back on the Gucci track 😂Gotta have that one,how chique with a crisp white trousers 👌

[@CassieThorpe]

🤩🤩🤩

[@douglasgriffiths3534]

I have an Off White industrial belt. Mine is blue though. Yeah, it does go around me several times. I put the "tail" in my pocket. I also have a blue Off White lanyard I use for my keys. I really didn't pay much for them---around 65 dollars for the belt, and 20 for the lanyard. They both came with the zip tie, which I didn't use because it would have had to be cut to remove, and the Off White packaging. Yeah, I fell off the slippery slope. (Jan Griffiths).

[@mariemeltagoury8708]

Lved this. I hv 2 chloe belts. 1 with the c buckle n 1 with a logo on the tail as u call it 😊 lv them both n i always get compliments for the tail one. Highly recommend ❤

[@bluntedonbroadway9611]

Best belt ever made...(From the late 90's-early 2000's)... hand's down the Vivienne Westwood orbit belt (large version)

[@viod8650]

Omgosh I clicked before you even posted!

[@CassieThorpe]

I love the speed!!

[@rosarueda6007]

Love how lively your videos are always happy. I have a question, what is your opinion about the Chanel belt with the big Chanel letters in the front with rhinestones? I’m on the fence about buying it from the resale market. Please if you could give me your opinion about the longevity of the belt and the wearability? Thank you!

[@kendra555]

aureum no 4 and a good chunky chain are on my belt wishlist at the moment, need to recover from my birthday spending first though😅

[@andreabutiong525]

I love my Loewe, Ferragamo, and Celine belts! Truly versatile. Still logo belts but still more lowkey. Logo belts with letters just do not make sense.

[@ninaonyoutube6372]

Hahaha, I still like my GG belts. Don't judge me @Cassie Thorpe 😂🤣😅 Although I will say, I am not a big belt person and wear them very seldom. If I wear another one at some point I would purchase the Hermes Kelly Belt. But that is really all I need, as far as belts.

[@lluvbagel9875]

I don’t normally wear belt but if I do want to buy one, I think I will go for the simple extendable Kelly belt and one reverseable loewe belt if it comes in wider belt or Gucci one.

[@applecrumble8625]

For some reason I love the Celine Triomphe symbol, but when I was about to buy myself a belt of it, it looked old fashioned to me 😕 I love the belts in photos, but I was surprised by how “untaken” I was by them in real life 🤔

[@AlexanderDurant-y1e]

I think the best belt is by Dolce gabbana D&G in tumbled leather

[@thislifereconsidered]

I needed this video! Thank you!

[@CassieThorpe]

You're so welcome!💖💖

[@christineweitz5747]

I have 3 belts. A skinny one, YSL, a medium one, Celine & a Hermes reversible one. I’m set. I don’t wear them very often.

[@CassieThorpe]

You have your bases covered!

[@adrianna.adrianna]

I have a black valentino belt with a black buckle and although it’s a logo buckle the fact that it is black on black makes a lot of difference.

[@MsEasyBeautiful]

There is a store called the boot barn that has tons of big western style belt buckles

[@AmyyyyyL]

Hi Cassie! Do you by any chance remember the buckle name for your H belt? I’m obsessed and love the understated H! 😍

[@stephaniebutterfield7246]

Like the aureum studded belts, cool brand😃

[@phillipskelli]

You do a fantastic job ❤

[@AlexHider]

I’m generally not team knockoff, but I do have an ASOS belt that obviously aped Gucci GG belt, but used circles instead of letters, and not only did it avoid the cringe of that belt, it also never felt too trendy or too untrendy, so ironically I get tons of wear out of it.

[@kendra555]

it’s not Luxury luxury but i have a coach belt (similar to the first hermes belt you showed) that’s reversible and has a punch in buckle that’s interchangeable and she is a workhorse for lifeeeeee like it’s the perfect everyday belt and one of my best ever purchases

[@CassieThorpe]

Coach is still a wonderful brand!! I might need to have a look into that one 💖

[@sothisistrishia]

I've always wanted a Loewe but none of the bags have caught my attention. The belt however... I just love their anagram logo. T___T Just not sure if it's worth it?

[@zennaturalist2543]

I have many belts they are great investments,also scarves and hair accessories and shoes. I'm not as trendy when it comes to clothing so accessories are my go too to add a lil razzle dazzle to my outfits.

[@CassieThorpe]

The accessories can pack a punch!

[@hovey17]

very helpful!

[@HeyerAlan]

My daughter Nancy, who holds a high position in New York, wears this bag. She loves its color, size and weight. Thank you*preluxz* .

[@sheilacarlislepyreneesmom]

Great video!!!❤

[@TheMeso23]

the video i need.. thank you❤

[@stephcampbell502]

Semi tardy to the party, but can we talk sizing. Should I go for the longer length, short tail, or midway for versatility? Help!

[@reneemarais431]

What are you wearing in your pony tail please? It is lovely. Just a touch of sumptn sumptn luxury

[@CassieThorpe]

It’s this hair band - go.shopmy.us/p-5181380 💖

Came across this video and I watched *condup* OMG your wardrobe is every woman’s dream! Love your voice and the way you speak
