I have a couple recommendations...when I'm trying to look for something trendy at a somewhat decent price, I like to check bebe, Guess, and Urban Outfitters first! Other great stores with trendy items are Anthropologie, Arden B, and Aldo. I posted some examples I found online (see below), but do be sure to check the stores, as their in-stock merchandise is often more extensive than their online. I happened to get 2 wide patent leather belts from bebe that I loooovvveee - they're not available online anymore, but I bet most stores will have a couple left. Anywho, here are some hot belt examples:


Like to tip toe into trends? Try this cute, red belt by Urban Outfitters - not too wide, but the red adds some attitude!


Feeling trendy but sophisticated? Check out this lovely, white, patent belt by Anthropologie


Like to multi-task? Combine two trends in one with this fun, red & white polka dot, wide belt by bebe


Looking for something simple that makes a statement? How about this sweet & simple, wide, white belt by Arden B?

I love them all, especially the white patent belt from Anthropologie. Although thin, I'm short-waisted (longer legs, short torso), so I can't wear anything too wide (as much as I'd like to). And you're right about stores like Arden B. having great deals. I found such a perfect bell-sleeved top their in moss green, on clearance! The style is still current because they have the same one available in black and white for fall.
