do you wear them? Utilitarian only or decorative?

I don't think I even own one, except maybe if one came with some pants or something that I'm forgetting.

I think I need some!
 
I only wear them when I have to. I have a couple plain belts because pants almost always are too big in the waist for me in order to fit my rear and thighs. I get the lovely gap at the back. I hate it!
 
Don't wear 'em even when I need 'em. Just don't like the way I feel and I'd rather hitch up my pants than wear a belt.

Can I go on a mini rant about parents who put belts on their 3 year old boys and then send them to me to potty train? Gah. Sweat pants, people.
 
Hate 'em, don't wear 'em. Perhaps that comes from living during the 80's when they were up around your waist choking you when you sat down.
 
I do wear them, so that I don't have to be pulling up my pants all the time. So, it's not decorative for me at all.
 
Lol, belts on a three year old are so inconvenient!

I have a few and wear them rarely - only when I have to:)
 
I have several.

I'm wearing one right now, a thin tan one, with a maxi dress I'm wearing at work. It just looks good. ;)

I wear super low jeans and usually instead of showing my crack I'll throw on a belt, if I'm leaving the house.

So, I'd say I wear them for both decorative and utilitarian reasons.
 
I have a whole bunch of them, but they are WAY too small! LOL!!!
 
I have a small variety of belts, and only where them for decoration really - like Tali mentioned - a few thin ones for over sweaters or dresses, etc...And occasionally the regular sized belts just to finish off a look. Don't wear them at all to keep my pants up really.
 
I'm not a big fan of them, but I do wear them occasionally. I actually like wearing a scarf as a belt because it's more comforatable.
 
I love belts, but I've gained so much weight since I had two kids (and a portion control problem, sigh) that I can never wear them. Someday...
 
I love belts! (Okay.....not in that kinda way either! LOL) But I do wear jeans just about everyday and so I wear a belt. And then I have a ton of decorative ones to snug a shirt or tunic top.

I have a couple, purely functional - I do not have the shape to wear them decoratively, sigh...
 
I remember when I was super skinny I loved them, because I could cinch my waist even more.
 
Yep I always need to wear a belt with jeans (my tummy means I need a bigger size than I need for my waist). I don't buy decorative ones any more though as I eventually figured out that the diamante buckles were causing holes to form in my tops!
