Anyway, from the snippets I’ve been seeing floating around the internet, it looks like Balenciaga’s got a thing for belts that are… well, not exactly screaming “BALENCIAGA!” from the rooftops. Which, honestly, is a nice change. Sometimes you just wanna subtly flex, ya know? No need to be all “look at me, I spent a fortune!” (Even though you totally did).
We’re seeing a few different belts pop up here. There’s the “Discreet logo-engraved belt” – classy, simple, probably costs more than my rent. Then there’s this “Explorer Beltpack,” which sounds way more adventurous. Like, are we exploring the Amazon? Or just the local mall? I’m hoping for Amazon, personally.
And then there’s this eBay collaboration thing? With “eBay artwork embroidered at front?” What even *is* eBay artwork? Is it like, a low-res image of a Beanie Baby? I’m genuinely curious… and slightly terrified.
The dimensions on that one beltpack are L15,7 x H7 x W3,9 cm. So, not huge. Phone, wallet, keys? Maybe a small tube of lipstick for touch-ups. Definitely not a spare change of clothes for that Amazon expedition.
Honestly, I think the whole idea of a “discreet” Balenciaga belt is kinda funny. Like, you’re still wearing a Balenciaga belt. Even if the logo is tiny, people *know*. They just *know*. Maybe it’s the vibe, maybe it’s the astronomical price tag, I dunno. But it’s not exactly flying under the radar.
And speaking of price tags, let’s be real, these things are gonna be pricey. I saw something about shopping at Neiman Marcus. Neiman Marcus? We’re talking serious money here. I’m more of a “find it on sale” kinda gal, but hey, to each their own.
