Wrap your waist in one of these fantastic studded belts from Dirty Velvet, made in Laguna Beach. Haute C Boutique is one of the only boutiques in the states to carry them.

The dark brown leather belt has both studs and sparkles, for just enough flash to dress up a casual look. That handbag featured in the picture (I know you were wondering...) is by Tylie Malibu, and is also chic and stylish.

Haute C Boutique, 18 E. Holly St., Pasadena, (626) 792-2290.
