How to choose a belt buckle

Filed under: Accessories, Men

When it comes to accessories, it' hard to beat the belt buckle -- it's the codpiece of our time. At least that's what I heard on some stupid TV show. Choosing the right belt buckle is an important decision, one that you should put some serious thought into. The buckle can tie your whole ensemble together and it can say a lot about you. Are you a firearms enthusiast, or an hipster fashion guru? There are even belt buckles that double as a smoking apparatus, but they look pretty stupid.

We've all seen the belt buckle done the wrong way. Lot's of people think they can just snap it on their belt and they're ready to go. To truly master the modern codpiece, you've got to think about the big picture. Think seamless integration.

Most belt buckles stand out by design. So, as with any conspicuous fashion item, the key is to display some taste and subtlety in your choice. Complementing the rest of your outfit with a design that's not over the top. Think of it like the keystone of you outfit, not just the focal point.
