Ok ladies, I'm wanting a brown braided leather belt to wear at my natural waist. Where should I look? I know a lot of braided belts can be several sizes since they don't have holes but I don't want a lot of excess hanging down. And I want it to be wide but not too wide, maybe around 2". My waist is about 26-27". Any suggestions?
Abercrombie has a few braided belts, and I know that they have really small-fitting clothes, so I would assume their belts wouldn't have too much left hanging on you.
From BR:
ETA: Just saw Elle's post with the BR belt... great minds think alike!

I bought one at Charlotte Russe this weekend for about $10, I *almost* bought one at Aeropostale but it was too straw-ish for my taste. You may want to stop by if you have one nearby.
check the kids' sections of department stores, too (probably boys). I can't stand excess belt, and I think a L or XL in kids may be a better fit for your waist.

I don't have anything against pleather on other people, but I can't bring myself to wear it. I'm weird, I know I think I just need to make a trip to the mall/TJMaxx and try some on. Thanks girls!
Considering they are like $10, I would highly doubt they are leather. I haven't ever seen leather at those stores. I would check places like Banana or Express.
