I Just Found the Perfect $68 Alt for Laura Harrier's Favorite Fall Accessory
The best dressers differentiate themselves by the way they style their clothing as opposed to just wearing it. It’s a skill that takes time and effort to perfect—and it shows. For proof of its effectiveness, see the look Laura Harrier just posted to her Instagram Stories. There, you’ll find a simple clothing combination made praiseworthy with strategically placed accessories.
In the mirror selfie, the White Men Can't Jump actress is wearing a black, cropped tube top with black pumps, a matching shoulder bag, and a pair of mid-rise black trousers. See what I mean about it being simple? But that all changed with the addition of one item: a black-and-silver Western-style Saint Laurent belt, a piece that fashion girls have come to rely heavily on to amp up their otherwise understated ensembles.
Fortunately for anyone who’s champing at the bit to re-create her belted outfit, I found the chicest affordable alt to try it with. The best part? It’s just $68, comes in multiple colors, and is available to purchase right now. Scroll down to shop Madewell's viral and best-selling belt (which I own and rate highly) and more pieces to get her look.
On Laura Harrier: Elsa Peretti Large Bone Cuff ($2500); Saint Laurent Folk Buckle Belt ($645)
This Italian-made, calf-leather belt with brass hardware has been worn by Harrier a handful of times, including to a Frame x Amelia Gray dinner at Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles back in the spring.
Shop Madewell's $68 Western belt:
One reviewer says, "I'm obsessed with this belt. I ordered in both colors. Some reviews say it's stiff, which it is, but I prefer that. It makes it look more high-end."
More Madewell belts:
The studs on this one mean it's an easy outfit-maker. Just add jeans and a white T-shirt for a very Harrier-esque ensemble.
You can't go wrong with this gold-metal option with a larger buckle. It makes just the right statement.
For a slightly smaller, skinnier option, choose this even more affordable option.
Shop Laura's look:
Kaia Gerber loves these classic Ref trousers.
You really can't go wrong with Good American, whether you're shopping for jeans, swimwear, or tailored separates.
Ask any WWW editor and they'll tell you how much they love Favorite Daughter for elevated basics.
Nordstrom's in-house brand is my go-to for affordable but expensive-looking wardrobe staples.
What did I say about Favorite Daughter's perfect basics? Exactly.
If you want a timeless belt that will last you decades, go to Anderson's.
